I just watched Fatal Games (1982)... I love 80s slashers... This one made no sense whatsoever, and still I love it. I wonder what it is about that era that so many people love.

chrisbennett A U.S. release has been announced (finally), so if I can wait a few months I won't have to buy the U.K. DVD.

- WednesdaysChild OK, not only have I not seen that one, I have never heard of it. But it sounds right for me, so thanks for posting about it. For me the 80s thing is pure nostalgia since I was born in the mid 70s. I think maybe for people not from the era it's the WTF f... more

chrisbennett I liked it. close enough to the original that you know it's a remake, but different enough that you have to watch and see how the assholes die.

Marcus How is the I Spit on Your Grave remake? I'm going to be watching it shortly...
- August 19, 2011
- Marcus Yeah, I feel the same way now that I've seen the movie. It felt a whole lot more intense for the revenge sequences in particular, which I wasn't expecting.

I thought the remake had some interesting set pieces, but it was a shame to redo Freddy. Not having Robert Englund affected the whole feel of the film and made it seem like the generic store brand version.

It kinda felt like they originally wanted the story to turn out that Freddy was wrongly accused, and was taking revenge on the children of the people who killed him because he was innocent. Some of the lines they said, and some of the plot devices seem to support this. Maybe it's because of this that the whole production seems like a mess. I'm wondering if at the last minute they brought it back to Freddy always being the bad guy. Just a thought...

Thefirst one is my favorite, and I would definitely be down with seeing a second trilogy!

I've seen these movies too many times to be objective about them anymore. It is my favorite slasher series. I can't chose a favorite, but I can say Paramount made the best ones.
