As a kid, I can honestly say that the original two parter that was shown in the UK back in 1979, actually scared the living daylights out of me.
But the new adaptation that we watched at the cinema just didn't hold a torch to the version I remember. The story was similar, but I felt like they changed it to for changing its sake, which was a shame.
However, saying that, it wasn't as bad as it certainly could have been. There were some jump scares along the way that did help to keep things moving along quite well. The acting was okay and so were the fx, but none of it weren't going to give anyone any awards.
So was it watchable? In my opinion, yes, but only on a very quiet night when you had nothing else to do. But not the best version at all.

My wife and I have just finished watching the full series and I have to say that we were gripped from the very start.
Whoever cast Sophie as Joan certainly knew their job and knew it well. As a matter of fact, the whole cast were brilliant and I don't think they could have picked anyone better.
After watching Sophie in the Game of thrones, I was surprised she did so well for her first major casting. But after this performance, I can honestly say that I would go as far as saying that she truly has to be one of the best actresses in the UK at the moment.
Also, I have to give credit to the actor that played Boisie (His name slips me sorry). Again, he gave a superb performance and his and Sophie's on screen chemistry was nothing short of awesome.
All in all, I loved it and it makes me want a season two. Fingers crossed.
