I don't have a problem with either movie. I never saw the original hithcher I saw the remake first and I liked it. Tcm was a great remake too.

The remake wasn't that good as compared to the original. Honestly, I'd watch the remake of Halloween or Texas Chainsaw before The Hitcher remake. In the original Hitcher, Rutger Hauer is very frightening.

I thought the Remake of TCM was FAR more BRUTAL! & FAR more realistic!
I mean the original Leatherface was a fucking drag queen lol.

Far more brutal I can see, but how was it more realistic?? There was a much smaller family, no "distant relatives" all over the place, everyone acting more like actual psychos... >.<
âThe Fright Night remake is a film which taps into the audienceâs deepest rooted fears, such as those of vampires throwing motorcycles at them. I dread the thought of a vampire throwing a refrigerator or a deskjet printer or... Iâd better stop before I give myself nightmaresâ

I'm gonna agree with Briggs on this one. When I first saw the TCM remake, I was indifferent and I still am about the movie. But the original was more realistic because the camera was like a second person. The voyeuristic shots, the grain of the film, the absents of music at points, the subtlety...
