Watched '56 original again last night, still the champ of B-movies. Really need a new version to center on smartphone use, though.

I think I'm gonna revisit the Abel Ferrara version soon. Warner Archives put together a Blu-Ray that's supposed to be quite good.

Solid new interview with Philip Kaufman and Veronica Cartwright about the '78 film with a couple of new-to-me details.

More from Chris Broughton on FB, who wrote it:
Veronica's mention of that last (to date) version [from 2007] was edited out, but here's what she said: "Until that (Donald's scream) happened, I figured there might be a sequel. I did have a sort of cameo in another remake, The Invasion, in 2007. That film had some reshoots, which changed the original director’s idea for my character. He’d wanted to give the sense she might actually be Nancy with a new name, having remained hidden all those years."....(Kaufman) also mentioned that he and Ben Burtt used pigs squeals again when mixing the 'exploding rockets' sound effects for The Right Stuff, "...to add to the sense of terror."
