    And filmmakers today use CGI to make things more "realistic and scary".

    HA. HAHA. HAHAHA.


    Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go curl up in a ball over there and be consumed by this intense, lingering feeling of dread.

    That movie mad me laugh, only because it was so old. But it's still quite good~

    This movie is like a dementor.

    After seeing someone trying to revive a man with a defibrillator, only for the man's chest to become a set of massive jaws and bite of that someone's arms, and then for the man to sprout a head out of it's chest, and then have its original head detach itself, slump across the floor, grow ginormous insect legs and try to escape:

    I'm not sure happiness will return to my life.

    2011 version originally used animatronix

    For some reason it got scrapped because the producers(?) did not like it and pretty much painted last minute bad cgi all over it. Really sad since they wanted to get the same feel like the Carpenter one.

    Well I mean CGI is cheaper and takes up less time so it is no surprise many directors prefer to use CGI.

    That dude looked of a mix of Jesus and Ashton Kutcher with a flame-crazed look on his face.
