I loved this movie. I was lucky enough to see it in theaters. It was a spur of the moment decision to go see it, so I hardly knew a thing about the movie going into it. I hadn't seen the original at that point and I had no expectations for the remake. I didn't even know it was a remake at the time. With that said, I was very impressed with it. I was on the edge of my seat a lot throughout the movie. I liked it so much, I bought the DVD on the day it was released. It is my second favorite remake of all time. My favorite remake being Dawn of the Dead. I was surprised it didn't do better among the critics. I guess I shouldn't be surprised though. They always seem to be tougher on films in the horror genre.
