After the flop that was the recent release of the Netflix TCM, I was inspired to watch a good TCM, so I queued up both the original (which I've seen a few times) and the Jessica Biel remake (which I have only seen once a long time ago but remembered liking). Post your reviews!

The bit April 2022 reboot of the scary movie club brings us a personal favorite, a remake of the Tobe Hooper classic TCM starring Jessica Biel.  Hot off her role in 7th Heaven catapulted her to fame, she had an opportunity to show off her darker, grittier side. And while she doesn't do drugs or have sex, she does have a few memorable scenes.
