A dark (and quite gory) remake of the 1941 "classic" starring Benecio del Toro as the title character, Anthony Hopkins as his creepy father and Emily Blunt as his dead brother's love. From a technical standpoint, the film is pretty impressive - production design, costumes, makeup and visual effects were all convincing. The performances are fine (despite some serious dashes of overacting) and there are a few genuinely suspenseful moments. Overall, much better than most of the crap/slasher flicks that get passed off as horror these days.
