I thought the NOES remake was complete fail. My views for this opinion are just the completely uninspired "dream sequences" and lack of any original scares. Granted, yes, I know it was a remake. But I would figure all of the ample opportunity to build on the already established ideas and put in some twists... They just could've done a much better job IMO. I'm a huge fan of Jacky Earl Haley, ever since the original Bad News Bears. Just felt his talents were wasted on a poor script.

I liked the remake myself, and look forward to any remake that is released. Gives something new to watch, as opposed to having to watch the same old movie over and over.

Don't get me wrong the old movies are classics, which is what they are and always will be. I always see that the re-makes draw in a new crowd and let the company's make some money for themselves.... whats wrong with that? New people get into the horror community, get interested by the remakes and then buy the older movies which gives everyone revenue... Problem?

haloboyvash, I agree with you completely; couldn't have said it better myself!... I'll never truly understand peoples unwarranted, unjustified and undying hate for remakes. As fan of all types of horror, I can't see why anybody wouldn't want to see a story/movie/character that they love modernized, updated, re-interpreted or just shown from a different perspective.... It's not like the originals are going away?
