I am such a fan of the original that I paid £30 for this 4 disc edition of the film with 3 different cuts and tons of extras:

oh damn, I'm impressed. I'll definitely give it a watch this weekend since you seem to like it so much and you have one of the best taste in movies of anybody i've ever met.

Yeah, I found that pretty freaky. Also when they shot the baby, that really freaked me out a bit.
The whole thing with the girl going after that dog seemed pretty ridiculous to me.
