A Kill for a Kill

Not since Psycho has a Hitchcock film remake been so predictable and dull. This is a shameful remake of his superior Strangers On A Train, with gender swapping and a modern setting. Didn't work in many ways, but just shows you don't touch an artist's work. The actors aren't horrible as to compare them to Troma or Full Moon staples, but the writing was off and the direction was not done well. Maybe the budget was limited or production interfered one too many times as was (and in most cases today still is) the problem. I know that a film has to change things up to keep the audience guessing and interested, but I feel that it just failed to come across as interesting or fresh.
