If you are under 40 you may think it's the original but it's not. It was the 2nd remake of the original 1923 silent movie. The 1st remake was in 1949. Also the Milla Jovovich verson was not a remake of the 1980 one but the sequel to it...

Completely agree, I have the same problem with The Wizard Of Oz. Judy Galrand was not in the original.

We used to make sh-t in this country. Build sh-t. Now we put our hands in the next guys pocket.

Holy crap! Are you serious? I thought I was old, but I had no clue that was not the original. Wizard of Oz I mean.

Agreed.
