This type of remake seems like a pay-check move, and as stated above, this was one of the rare foreign films to actually find a little traction in The US, so why remake it?

Kids 4 feet tall and 60 lbs soaking wet aren't scary or threatening in the least. Where did this fad come from? Japanese horror? I tried to watch Pet Semetary on TV a while back and couldn't stop laughing when the little demon child came back from the dead. So I guess that gimmick has been around for a while.

As long as the Marketing team does their job, people should have no problem distinguishing it from The Orphan. The tone of the two movies are very different IMO (the setting is what makes The Orphanage creepy, where as The Orphan seems to be more focused on the orphan kid) I liked those Fear Itself shows.

It was pretty big in the US already, and it was a great movie. I might see this for free, but I don't think it'll be nearly as good. This is so stupid.
