The movie was different from the original, but it still fealt like "paint by numbers" to me. It's barely getting good reviews on rotten tomatoes.com, 64%. Also, I didn't think the possessed people looked that strange. They could of done a way better job in make-up to me. It's not a terrible movie, just barely interesting.

Has anyone else on here seen this, yet. What did you think of it?

I saw it on Friday. Well, I saw some of it, but I had my eyes closed for most of it. I love horror movies, but I don't love a lot of gore. This was just disgusting for the sake of being disgusting. I didn't think it was scary either. To be honest, I haven't seen a good scary horror movie in a long time. Now they are just about the shock value with a lot of over the top blood and guts, or watered down PG 13 movies that are filled with teen actors from the CW network just to sell tickets.
