Creepy Ian McKellen, aka The Prisoner

[delphipsmith]

Watched the first two parts on AMC last night. I know nothing about the original but the remake is weird as hell. Who knew a Knight of the British Empire could be this damn creepy?? I read that he had a hard time getting into the part until they found him the white suit; apparently with that, something clicked. He looks like a serial-killer ice cream salesman (I was always suspicious of ice-cream truck drivers -- that mindless repetitive music, those windowless vans, y'know?). Ick. Eek.
