An almost scene-by-scene remake of the original classic film, this version (like the PSYCHO remake) is totally useless, and should never have been made. 20th should have re-issued the original. One or two deaths are slightly re-thought here, but over all this is the 1976 film with new actors, and none of them stars; except for Mia Farrow, who is enjoyable, but who doesn't come across nearly as evil as Billie Whitelaw, in the same role in the original. Right down to the ending, it is a ripoff...not needed and poorly executed. Ah well, 20th must have needed the money very much to make this film. What's next in remakes? "Gone with the Wind?" "Hush, Hush Sweet Charlotte?" "All About Eve?" "Singing in the Rain?" "The Exorcist?" Comments?
