It couldn’t be worse than the version with Marlon Brando. This may be the only reboot that literally can’t lose.

I loved that version. It has B movie camp to it. Also Fairuza Balk as a cat girl?? Count me in.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s a gem—the same way The Room is a gem, or Birdemic is a gem. You can’t believe your eyes and you can’t look away. It is a riveting car crash of a film.

The best part is that the production was such a mess that the documentary about it counts as a second movie!

You mean like this scene?

[–] reddig33@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

I prefer the 1970s version with Michael York.
