Absolutely pointless remake. I hate that the remake obsession is creeping out of the horror genre into everything now
"This seems to be an unnecessary remake. There's nothing wrong with the original."
There's nothing wrong with most of the movies that are getting the remake treatment. Overall it's getting quite pathetic and shows how shallow Hollywood has become.
