Anatomy of the Remake (113 movies items)

"5 STARS vs 7 STARS I honestly didn't even see the point of this one. Honestly, the original is just standard atomic-era sci-fi cheese and notable, mainly, for it being Steve McQueen's first starring role. The original was good, and fun; this remake was just bad."

"01/27/13 - The big problem here is that 80's cheese just doesn't feel as good as 50's cheese. Also, no Steve McQueen."

"October 17 After seeing the original movie, I was wondering if this was better. While it does fix some of the problems from the original, it still has problems of its own. The dialogue was really weird. Sometimes it was good and sometimes it wasn't. Despite the flaws I enjoyed it and I really liked how the blob looked. "
