The Mechanic is a new Hollywood remake that most people probably didn’t know was a remake. The original was a 1972 film starring Charles Bronson and Jan-Michael Vincent. What’s beneficial in a situation like this is that when a target audience doesn’t know it is a remake, there’s no basis of comparison and no one complaining that the original was better. The target audience for the 2011 film wasn’t even alive in 1972 and are lucky if they’ve even heard of the name Charles Bronson (which is unfortunate).
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
