Highlander: does it really need a remake? (video)

Highlander, the classic 1986 scifi-fantasy adventure about immortals duelling across the ages (the film starring Christopher Lambert and Sean Connery), is now getting a modern remake/reboot/refresh thanks to Lionsgate, with Henry Cavill in the lead role.

Luckily, the grumpiest Scotsman we know (that’s a rather crowded field), aka the Critical Drinker, is on hand to drown this concept in a bath of sour vodka before it runs too far down the street without its pants.
