Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I love STRAW DOGS. Love it. Susan George was the bee's knees, even with her snaggleteeth... which somehow made her hotter. Dustin Hoffman was bravely exploring his young talent, fearlessly attacking the film. And Sam Peckinpah's directing was incredible, as usual.

Rod Lurie (THE CONTENDER) is on board, trying to get the rights for Sony Screen Gems.

On the one hand I can see the appeal... a troubled couple under siege in a remote house, an every day weakling who lets his built up rage out on the intruders... It's almost set like a play. I can see the appeal in remaking it. But I also can't see how they'll make a better movie than Peckinpah's.
