I really liked the movie
Red Dragon (68%/74% RT score) and didn't know it was a remake.
The story based on the book IMO is really top notch so I just watched the 1986 version,
Manhunter (94%/70% RT score).
It was still really good. The acting was better in the 2nd but that's because they had Hopkins, Norton, Fiennes, Keitel, Hoffman, and Watson.
1st had CSI guy, Avi from Snatch, and some other decent actors at the time and interestingly enough starred Brian Cox as Lecktor and Joan Allen, both central Bourne movie stars.
Good watch.
