“The original movie is one of my all time favorites—so my bar for this particular remake was set pretty high. I was NOT disappointed— Episode One was excellent!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGood acting, well developed characters, and a story pretty true to the original—-but with its own character and flavor. I really liked it a lot.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI hope the rest of the series is as good as Episode 1. You might want to be sure to watch it first if you missed the Pilot.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAgain—-excellent in all regards and highly recommended! It does a pretty good job of setting up the story, grabbing your attention from the start—and putting a pretty good twist or two in the mix a well. I really liked the characters too—and that was what I was afraid of most since the original movie was so great a personal favorite!”
