I just finished watching Red Dragon. The first effort in the 1980's was called "Manhunter," but they should have stuck with calling it Red Dragon. I read the book first and that was a very scary book. Thomas Harris really made the description of the madness of the mindset very scary without really going for much of the gore. Just as he did in "Silence Of The Lambs." I read Silence Of The Lambs after seeing the movie. But if you want a good scare then I suggest reading Red Dragon before watching it. The movie is ok, but it pales by comparison.
The same goes with Manhunter. I liked it a lot. In some ways it was scarier than this version of Red Dragon. I especially liked the loud playing of "Inagoddadivida" during the final cat and mouse scenes at Wills home. That really made it macabre..
