Another pointless remake. There is nothing wrong with the original, it holds up, doesn't need updating! What is with the remaking of excellent films? It seems if its black & white, has subtitles, or has dated clothing (which are all back in style) it needs to be remade. Straw Dogs falls in the same category as The Shining and The Exorcist as for near perfect films. Remake crap and schlock, I'm all in favor, but take a perfectly viewable movie and remake it because the audience with the most disposable income (read: dumb kids) that all things are tailored to can't relate to the soundtrack just shows that Hollywood is filled with vaccuous 20 somethings that don't have a clue, and really don't care....wow, that was a little excessive...but I feel better.
