i genuinely dig BOTH versions...the 50s version and the 70's version. Both are among my fave's and both are always good for a rewatch.
i dug this new updated version too.

(the above is not a diss...i went into Annihilation totally blind (as i always try my best to do), i knew nothing, other than who the director was and that i enjoyed other things he was involved with ('Ex Machina' and 'Never Let Me go')... i left satisfied with this flick as well....)
