For those who had the misfortune to watch the ABC version, and haven’t seen the original, this would be a good opportunity to find out why the remake was a waste of time and money.
But that’s JMO. I could be wrong, and frequently am.

The original is indeed a classic movie and should not be missed. (also this version has clearer and sharper colors than the dvd version if I read it right.
