Well I thought it would be a bit more intense, and I was also expecting a great score... I just didn't feel it.

quarantine (2008)
eh, it wasn't bad. it just seemed mostly lackluster after seeing the original. however, what intrigued me most about seeing it was the reactions of the audience. it's clear to see the difference between american audiences and pretty much the rest of the world. the intent of the original filmmakers was left fairly intact (with a lot less hollywood-type tamperings than i anticipated), so what was meant to be terrifying in the original, or even genuinely creepy, was many times laughed at by the people in the theatre. i found the same phenomenon when i watched the funny games remake. obviously made with the same intent delivered on non-american audiences, the reactions in the small theatre in northern indiana in which i saw it ranged from nervous laughter to walking out to walking out and then back in, back out, back in, and so on to seemingly involuntary outspoken reasoning of the action onscreen (i.e. "why is he doing that? oh, it must be because _______. but wait! why in the world would they do that?! is it because _______." etc.). it was quite fascinating. of course, i myself am an american viewer, so why did i notice it? i don't know. anyway, back to the film at hand: save your money and rent it, unless you have no way of seeing the original right now.

I had the experience of seeing Eyes Without a Face at a small art theatre here in Portland with a mostly college crowd. The "sophisticated" college students were mostly laughing at the film and mocking it. I was appalled.
