How similar is it to the TV remake?


I've only seen the TV remake starring Robert Carradine. Both pretty much the same thing?

Years ago I inadvenrtantly rented the remake from Blockbuster, thinking it was the original. Last night, I watched the original for the first time. They are pretty much the same, but with different actors. They even re use some of the same footage from the original in the remake. I do like the Carradines, but the original is much better.

PS: does anyone know if this is being reduxed again anytime soon? If so, BLEECH!

As the other person mentioned, the remake is almost the same, less gore and less nudity, in fact, the ONLY nudity we see is the boob of one of the dead protester girl who gave birth on the beach..
The re-used lots of the Carnival scenes and kills, and the women are all in a cave stuck in some kind of goo wall...!
I guess, they're used as breeder stock where as in the original, they're raped and used only once.!
