* AdaptationalVillainy: In this version, Harry Warden is far more evil then he was in the original. The original Harry was motivated by a desire to avenge himself and his fellow miners, as he was the only one to survive the cave-in, all the other miners were killed instantly. Harry only killed the two men he blamed for the cave-in. The Harry in the remake is motivated by selfishness and sadism, as other miner survive the cave in, and Harry kills them himself to preserve his own air. After awakening from his coma, Harry massacres an entire hospital consisting mostly of invalid patients and (according to news reports) children, all seemingly for no reason.
