The Crazies (2010)
Dir: Breck Eisner

The inhabitants of a small town go insane when a toxin contaminates their water supply.
A decent remake that improves on the original. The bigger budget allows for more action and thrills, and the acting is solid from everyone involved. Eisner stages some impressive scenes and keeps the tension racked up throughout. While there's nothing really original here, it's still an enjoyable update.
