There are many bad remakes, and this is one of them. 'Lord of the Flies' is a remake of a 1963 movie based on the novel by William Golding where a bunch of British schoolboys end up on an island. In this version, the boys are American and from a military school.

I've seen Americanization before, but this movie has too many differences. This is just boys squabbling, fighting and kil... read more

Description: After a plane crash in the ocean, a group of military students reach an island. Ralph organizes the boys, assigning responsibilities for each one. When the rebel Jack Merridew neglects the fire camp and they lose the chance to be seen by a helicopter, the group split under the leadership of Jack.

" Based on the classic book, by William Golding and later made into a movie in 1963, a group of American military school cadets end up on a deserted island, after a plane crash. Left to their own devices, they become savages, with one group lead by Jack who wants to have a “society free from any rules”, and Ralph, the more pragmatic of the two wants a more civilized law based society. Things go really horrible from there. Critics praised the performances, but felt that the film strayed too"
