I like the remake, but the original is far superior to me, i love that weird 70's vibe endlessly, so that's my personal preference.
Don't be afraid of the dark stands head and shoulders above a lot of the 70's TV horror films for atmosphere alone.
Whereas the remake while good, blends in, and is lost in being a bit bland as a horror film of its time.
