What to Expect : As far as remakes go, it's not bad. Not bad at all. In fact, it's almost as good as the original. Some smart variations on the original's plot elements keep the 2011 version fresh enough to enjoy even if you've alredy seen the 1985 movie. Farrell gets top marks for delivering a genuinely scary villain. Overall, it's a decent vampire flick that will keep you thrilled and chilled throughout its running time. My only gripe, a small one really, would be that the CGI visual effects look a little too artificial.
