Needs a remake
This, if done well could be fantastis. Ang Lee should direct.
shareThey did a remake in 2000.
If they did it today, it would probably be about a virus that turns everybody into vampire zombies...oh wait, that's been done too.
I was meaning with a A-List director. This 2000 production was directed by a hack.Even the cast is third rate.
shareThe 2000 remake certainly isn't bad for a TV-movie production and the cast was not 'third rate' -- Assante was a fairly big name in the 1990s and Ward was somewhat comparable to Gardner -- a formerly top-list glamorous actress whose star had faded quite a bit. It didn't match up to the 1959 film but it was OK on its own merits.
But yeah, I could see a remake in another few years.
