My Bloody Valentine 3D - 2 Disc Special Edition

[CarolinePar]

And on that note which horror films that haven't been should be rereleased as 3D?

Granted it'd mean a lot of work but some fans would sign checks for it right?

True. 3-D may seem over-done! But hey it adds a new look!

Spotted this My Bloody Valentine 3D thread and thought id just put my 2 cents in, lol.

I loved the original and was excited when i heard about the "remake". So when it came out i immediately went to see it. Now i generally have a pretty good memory when it comes to horror movies. Especially those with sequels. But in my opinion this wasnt a remake at all. It seemed more like a a sequel. Which is fine. But i dont think they should have promoted it as a remake. Who ever put this thing together didnt do their homework. I immediately became confused as the characters in the film were being introduced. I had that feeling of "huh? thats not holding true to the original" kinda nagging feeling thru the whole movie. Heres what i mean, and i have done my homework here, lol.

Valentine 1981

TJ Haniger - Played by Paul Kelman (Survived along with long time love Sarah)

Axel Palmer - Played by Neil Affleck (Turned out to be the killer, lost love interest to TJ)

Sarah - Played by Lori Hallier (Loved TJ all along, settled for Axel until TJ showed back up)

My Bloody Valentine 3D 2009

Tom Haniger - Played by Jensen Ackles (Turned out to be the killer)

Axel Palmer - Played by Kerr Smith (Now the Sheriff and married to Sarah, wasnt the killer)

Sarah - Played by Jaime King (Loved Tom, but settled for Axel)

Now with that being said along with a few other differences in the movie i wasnt to happy with, the movie was fine as a stand alone from the original. I thought the kill scenes were well done. I noticed a couple of kill scenes seem to be a tribute to the original, for example the dryer scene. So that was a nice gesture for fans of the original. Well thats my small 2 cents on My Bloody Valentine 3D! lol

Well yeah they changed the end plus the position of some characters, but that hardly makes it a sequel instead of a remake! I imagine they mainly just did it to deepen the mystery to those who already saw the first one (I personally preferred the mystery element in the remake, a real mindbender; the one in the original seemed a bit too straightforward, not weighty enough)
