Don't assume the hollywood flick will suck just because it's a remake. I can think of two Japanese horror flicks where the US version was better, simply because the original director was involved and the "hollywood" time around he had unlimited cash. On the other hand, I just looked at the other movies the production co behind the remake has done, and while I liked ultraviolet and underworld for personal reasons (They inspired my wife to work out, and pick a more interesting wardrobe to match), I hardly think they were good.

Just watch the original. You'll see how poorly the remake compares.

It's a pity, because the audience would benefit from watching the Spanish version in theaters. But sadly that won't happen, as it has to be in English, set in LA, played by American actors :)

I finally saw it. Couldn't wait until 'Drunken Bido Friday Night'. Yes, I'm alone here, and no lights on. Not too dark..not too bright.

I don't know if it's because I'm used to the plot in zombie movies, but it seemed pretty standard to me until...the last 10 minutes. That was beautiful suspense.

I have a little bit of faith in the remake. They really gave too much info in the trailer, but a good director could pull it off. We'll see

Ah, and again. The trailer for the remake sucks. A lot
