The primary distinction between the original 1978 film and the 2010 remake is the lens through which the violence is viewed. The original was grainy, amateurish, and felt like a dirty secret; it lingered on the psychological trauma of the protagonist, Jennifer Hills. The 2010 version, however, is slick and polished. It transforms a gritty exploitation revenge fantasy into a high-gloss horror production.
