The Island (with links to spoilers)

So I'm reading the Stephanie Zacharek review of The Island in Salon and thinking, "what movie is being remade here?" Stephanie hints at Soylent Green but it sounds like Logans Run to me. The NYT review opens with a comparison to THX 1138 (a more film-schoolish, highbrow move by the old gray lady.) But then the NYT gives away the premise, and it turns out that the movie is...

THE CLONUS HORROR.

If only they'd release it simultaneously with an MST3K version.
