Much prefered this film than the USA made one later. A good reminder that if we scratch the surface the savage in us is released, and it isn't always noble.
My Movie Rating: 9 / 10I like both of the movies about this story, which is rare for me because I don't like remakes! this movie is of course, the best of the 2! after seeing this movie for the umpteen millionth time! I finally spotted and recognized Nicholas Hammond! he later played Spider-Man in a TV series that I saw as a teen!
This movie for me is an ultimate boy movie, it has everything I want and look for when watching boy movies!
I highly recommend it to any boy movie buff!
My Movie Rating: 9 / 10Just a classic that I have watched at least 12 times.
