Scare Tactics

They had the opportunity to do a great remake but failed in some areas. The pranks have potential and are good ideas but the delivery falls way short. The climax is over too quick. They scare the victim and then reveal they're on a show before they can even get the victim fully scared. If they'd allow the victim more time to be scared and have a genuine reaction it may be enjoyable. Even if I hadn't watched the original I'd feel the same way with this remake.

The pre-setup videos are not relevant to the story. The lead up to the scare is mediocre but does ok in getting the victim nervous. The scare happens and within seconds it's revealed they're on a show. Hopefully they will read the reviews and do better next season.
