it sux... :(

Pretty boring..
Julia Stiles was o.k.
Kid was a lil weird.. but not really scary
The Dad, can't remember his name.... he sucked, his acting was very bland, a walking zombie actor. No emotion and not believable.

The actors just couldn't engage me.. I tried so hard to want to like this movie, but it had no redeeming qualities.

Overall, it was a waste of my time, and I went for free.
Go watch something else, this movie was below average. I give it 2 out of 5 stars

For the life of me, I still don't know why they remade this movie.

I guess Hollywood has run out of ideas for movies and just have to keep going back and remaking classics

Waits for the Citizen Kane remake...some big hollywood producer "We found the original citizen kane to be quite depressing so we are reimaging it with Jack Black in the lead"

Did you see the trailer for "Descent?" Bunch of hot girls go splunking and find creatures. Now that looks scary.

That is what I was thinking


Isn't "it sux" being a spoiler?

the summary is ** NO SPOILERS **
How can you have spoilers for a movie that is 30+ years old?

I've never seen it.

Sounds like a waste of my time tho. Sad, the previews made it look kinda freaky

YES thank you. That point wasn't already made 100 times.

The no spoilers warning was for those that didn't watch it, 30 years ago or in the last 12 hours. STFU already.

It had the usual startling moments and is kind of scary, but nothing like The Ring. I was disturbed for weeks after that and slept with my lights on for a while. Every time I lay in bed in the dark I'd picture the girl crawling towards me.

This might be a spoiler but I don't know....

At the end with the boy standing next to the president all I could think was it's Dick Chaney!

It's not really freaky. The kid is creepy, but nothing like you'd expect from the antichrist. It's not an action horror either.

Meh, the original was a major let down for me. Just expect more from a movie about the Anti-Christ, I suppose. :shrug;
