Which itself is a call-back to the opening scene of Night of the Living Dead, where a guy is telling his little sister that this guy staggering around is "coming to get you." Turns out -- he really was!

Haven't seen the original. Only the one with the hot redhead. I must go out and get it....

Yeah it's got good mixed with bad, but some parts were really kind of genius, like the swinging lamp in the basement that has been ripped off so many times since(you'll even see it in the Simpsons) and the very transgressive business with the little girl and her mother.

Plus there's something ingenious about having such a resonant primal situation in the first place -- little house, small group of people against overwhelming odds and ceaseless horror. It's kind of like the suburbs.
