Both version had their merit, and I feel this is a big compliment from me considering my feelings on remakes.
The new one was a great job as far as remakes go. On the positive side of things, there was more gore of course, and I feel like the acting was more in place than the original.
The original though, had more of a powerful and visceral impact. It may be because of the desensitization towards violence that I have built up over the years, but the rape sequence seemed more brutal and harrowing in the original.
And besides, the original gave us Michael Berryman...
