Love the '78 version, but I think Ferrara's '93 version was pretty dreadful actually.
i mean the entire Army base set-up ****s the concept from the start.

1, It makes the outbreak so small scale and insulated.
2, It's not a good idea to have a film about people becoming very similar, all obeying the same orders and becoming very regimented....on an army base!
