Tcm Remake!

[🪦 travsall ●]

Jeeze, these damn kids! :angry: Listen, the original TCM is the movie that it is because it was incredably ground breaking and original when it came out in 1974, it pretty much revolutionized the entire horror/slasher genera as you know it today. No TCM, and there probably wouldn\'t be the rich tapestry of characters there are now. There is also no possible way to compair the new version to it realistically, they were made 30 years apart for christs sakes, of course the special effects elements are going to be much nicer, and the movie will be cleaner on the whole, but that does not mean it\'s better. The story and plot were lacking quite a bit I thought, and bubba just wasn\'t the same character, more of a run of the mill psycho. The fact that he was mentally handicapped in the first was such an ingenious rout to go, you can\'t reason with him, try to explain it\'s wrong to kill people, it was just a big game to him, you are his food, and he is going to hunt you down period. Which brings up another point I missed about the new one, where did the canabalistic aspect go?!?!? That added a ton to the creepieness of the original, just knowing you are being hunted down for meat makes it all that much more terrifying.

I liked the new version, it\'s not a remake in the truest sense, more of a damn good sequal, but it still can\'t hold a candle to the original, nothing can! When you watch the original, I mean really watch it, you get a chill to your bones, it leaves you with an almost hollow feeling. The new one didn\'t do that at all for me, which was a HUGE part of why the original is my favorite movie of all time. So to say the new version was 100% better is just ignorant and foolish.
