Dude, it wasn't supposed to be a carbon copy of the novelLA (far too short to be a novel man). It was a film HOMMAGE utilizing one of the most famous themes to make a modern day adaptation. It also expanded on the story by throwing in issues more relevant to todays audiences.

I thought it was a unique interpretation, especially since our values nowadays are so material and drugs are so prevalent (and mad controversial) in the medical industry.

But in the end it was a classic horror story re-interpreted into the more modern evolution of what the horror genre has become since the 1880's. And frankly, anything written in 1886 that we still know about is OBVIOUSLY going to be a touch better than anything people are pooping out nowadays.

I hate when pretention gets in the way of just sitting back and enjoying a good horror flick.

Sorry if i offend you by saying this, because to me it seems blatently obvious and I am only bothering to reply to this as I found the tone of your comment to be rather indignant. In an attempt to identify with a percieved injustice, it seems that "bentleytheyeti" (or is it "Dr. bentleytheyeti"?) feels discriminated against as a 'real' Doctor by none other than a ficticious Professor Poole and her failure to address undergraduate students, such as "Mr. Jekyll" and "Miss Utterson" with the title of Dr.

Im happy to stand corrected, but I would think that the average medical student in a modern university being taught Western medicine has enough privelege and status already that they dont need to be prematurely given the title they are studying 6-7+ years to achieve. The Mr/Miss/Ms and Mrs of this world whom are doctors in waiting retain their regular titles as its a reflection of their undergraduate status. To be called a Doctor and to have it as your title then there is a reasnoble expectation by society that the individual to whom it applies has mastered to a level of phD a certain body of knowledge. Prior to that mastery, one cannot say they are a master or be expected to display the qualities of one. I did say from the outset that this was a pretty simple scenario and I'm genuinely surprised to be encountering this degree of absurdity from an educated individual.

As tempted as I am to prise open the latter comments of Dr. bentleytheyeti; comparing this recent incarnation to the 1880's masterpiece, I know it will achieve little more than a thinly veiled bashing for which other posters have already done a fine job.

You mean used to be "Bullocks", now it is just another crappy Macy's

What kind? Card or wood?
