ORIGINAL
Today's film was the original Israeli version of
They didn't wait long for the re-make. Almost a slap in the face.
The original is much more psychological and plays to the guilt of the trio who allows the nazi to get away and then pretends that they killed him.
The debt is that they must now finish him off.
I don't know that one is better than the other. I found this one more interesting. Unknown actors and a lower budget. Less spectacular shenanigans in the escape sequences.
Also a bit of homo erotica turned toward sadism and anger. Not big but very strong.
I am glad that I did it but I have renewed my pledge not to watch remakes and if I find that I have seen one inadvertently, I will let well enough alone and move on.
A 4 out of Netflix5.
