Funny Games - copycat movie
 

Its remarkable how identical these two movies are down to the smallest detail. Done on purpose I presume?

Obviously a remake. Getting awful reviews, from what I hear.

Well, they were done by the same person. The only difference was the first one was done in Austria, I believe.

Naomi Watts is yummy!

some years ago a 1988 dutch movie called the vanishing was remade in 1993 with jeff bridges and kiefer sutherland.
same title, same director. bigger stars, bigger budget, wider release. you know?... more cowbell.
