It was awful before, looks even worse now. Resigned to DVD in a week.

Jacob's Ladder is one of my favourite films and I'll be surprised if I even think this is OK.

the original was garbage anyway. just a lame rehash of Dark Carnival.

(The original from 1990 ? yes ... not some series )

original was good - but will be junk like , also massacred, The crow, and flatliners ,
I see production company did Anthropoid , another mess-up.

The original with Tim Robbins is one of my guilty pleasures. Remember being freaked out by it a bit when I saw it on VHS probably in my early teens. The dark tone and paranoia element gave it a bit of a mystique as there are a lot of unanswered questions requiring a second viewing to wok out what is real and what is delusion.

This remake looks fairly pointless.

Was the original the Vietnam thing with the drugs?

What was the film where someone was going to try to kill the president and there were subways involved and whatnot?

The one with Macaulay Culkin in it

Yes I think the other film I was thinking of was' the dead zone'.
