Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
A handful of creepy visuals can't make up for a mountain of shortcomings.
It would have been a lot scarier if the film's college kids, haunted by comrades who stare back at them from cyber-hell, looked like they had lives worth saving.
The remake begins with the same premise and appropriates the most striking visuals, grafting them onto a more explicable but equally dull George Romero-style doomsday scenario.
What was dreadful and trance-like in the original feels here like nothing-much-at-all sandwiched between some stock horror jolts.
