Recently watched The Crazies 2010 for the first time recently. Great horror flick, and I'm surprised I missed it for many years. Violent, creepy, and epic in scope - extremely well-done. I like the sense of unease as the sheriff (Olyphant) is slowly realizing something isn't quite right, but not being 100% what the issue is...until it's too late.
I've never seen the 1973 original by Romero, but I suspect that even when I do I will still prefer this more modern version.
I do like some horror remakes, notably the 2004 Dawn of the Dead - which I found far superior to the late '70's original. But, that's just me....
