I was fully prepared to rip this film to shreds if it was anything less than exceptional, but I cant do that. I loved it to be honest. Its a film made solely for the hardcore fans, may be the first of its kind. Matthijs van Heijningen Jr. must be a huge fan Jon Carpenter's original, because of how much precision and care is taken to make sure the two films link up PERFECTLY. Being a die hard fan of the original, I was like a fat kid in a fat kid store. Although the use of CGI automatically makes this film inferior to the original, the creature design is creepy, lovecraftian, and awesome. If you loved the original, you will at least like this film and appreciate the pieces of the puzzle revealed...if not..you probably just got something up your ass.
