The original "The Haunting" with Julie Christie was terrifying in its lack of special effects. The new one looks like an attempt to use every computer based fright trick invented in the last ten years - the effect? YAWNNNNN
Why did they have to re-do "CArrie"? Unless someone had the TV rights to it and wasn't budging...
Part of the problem with these remakes is the actors. Tom Cruise vs, Clark Gable? Yeah, right.
I hope never to see a remake of High Noon but (I will get mountains of abuse for this) Johnny Depp could carry it off and I would go to see it.
