I have to say i absolutly hated the remake, i just couldnt buy into it at all. The actors if they can be called that at all did a terrible job, i couldt care about any of them. I dont remember the characters name but the fellow who watched Chrissy die in her bed showed the same amount of emotion as someone would spilling coffee 'i didnt do it, frown repeat', to be fair if i watched my lady get pulverised around a room before practically exploding im pretty sure i'd have a brown stain and wail like a baby running for my life. And i know its a reboot and the characters new updating or reinvinting, but the thing i like about freddie over all other slasher killers was his charisma and he became the star of the franchise, with Jackie i just didnt feel he carried the role off with any lasting integrity that a franchise needs to get going. His moment to shine came far too late in the film, although i dont place the blame on Jackie as much as the writers. Of course these are just my opinions and im not trying to tear into a film just for the arguments sake as i have seen in other articles.
