Saw the trailer last weekend, before Inglorious basterds. The only thing I was sure of at the end is that Hammer-style imagery and CGI shouldn't mix.

To be honest, though, I don't think they could have pulled it off without the CGI. Hopefully the acting will be the main focus. The original had the great Claude Rains (as well as the likable Lon Chaney Jr.)- now we have Anthony Hopkins who rarely disappoints (except for that silly, over-the-top performance in Bram Stoker's Dracula)
