DVD Buyer's Video Nasty Guide

[vincenzo]

The last film I saw him in was the Halloween remake.

[The Reaper Man@Cult Labs]

Yeah along with Mr Kier.
What did you make of the HALLOWEEN remake Vince?
You hold out any hope for Zombie's sequel?

[vincenzo]

To be honest I thought it was a travesty.

[The Reaper Man@Cult Labs]

I'm not a fan of remakes by a long shot,but I thought it was a lot better than some of the other remake crap being constantly churned out.But you're right,when sat side by side with Carpenter's unbeatable original,then it is a bit of a travesty.

[Angel]

Zombies sequel is out soon. I'm looking forward to it.

I thought the remake had it's moments just wish they would cut down on the excessive swearing, but compared to some of the remakes I have seen recently eg Assault on Precinct 13, I thought it was above average.

[The Reaper Man@Cult Labs]

Agreed Angel.If they'd have toned down the excessive f**cks,then it would have fared much better next to Carpenter's original.I don't think there was a single sweary word in the original.

I can imagine that one day it will be easy to get every one of the nasties. Possibly within the next 20 years.
