I liked Das Experiment, and don't feel the need to see another movie about it. Not a remake rant--it was a foreign film--it just wouldn't have the same impact for me. If you haven't seen Das Experiment, or don't know the story, check this out.

Yeah, excellent film. They only made it six days into the 2-week experiment.
