		<description><![CDATA[A little harsh on director Dennis Iliadis, as actually from what I've heard his remake of The Last House on the Left earlier this year was actually half-decent. OWF's Mike Edwards liked it, anyways.

It's just, when a top industry talent like Martin Campbell leaves a $60 million budgeted Universal project (he's doing Green Lantern instead), and a second or possibly third tier director (not a dig, he's only made one movie but he has to climb the ladder like everyone else) comes on board to replace him, then it is surely a case of nobody wanting the job.

And who can blame them? Who would want to remake The Birds? I know I've mentioned before that if you were to remake any Alfred Hitchcock movie, it would both financially (as it was Hitch's big crowd-pleaser) and creatively (it's the one Hitch story that lends itself to big budgets and special effects) make sense to remake this one but at the end of the day, it's a small concept that can easily be adapted into other things.

Don't call it The Birds, don't steal scene-by-scene. You don't need too.



Stephen King managed to do adapt Hitch's story with The Mist, and make it his ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is actually our second review of this year's The Last House on the Left. Back in April, Martyn Conterio reviewed the film for us.

A remake of an early Wes Craven film doesn't actually sound like too bad an idea on paper. Remakes of recent films that already work, or old classics that everyone loves, are almost sacrilegious (I'm sure all of us at OWF have had a moan at one time or another on that topic) but Last House on the Left just wasn't that great.

The 1972 breakthrough film for the man who would became a giant of the genre was a good concept that could be made cheaply and effectively. It kind of wasn't either, despite having its moments. And this is why, I suspect, Craven himself came on board as a producer: to see his own little piece of personal history made how it could be.



Interestingly, a relative unkown would step up to the directorial plate and try to make it his own. Dennis Iliadis has made just a couple of films previously, none of which were big budget Hollywood fares, making him an interesting prospect for this project. My personal, if slightly optimistic, view going into this ...]]></description>
