When the first clips were released and they announced the remake there was some internet chatter about how racist the movie was and how terrible it is to remake it, blah blah.
Remember, it is about a white guy who wants to kill a white guy who killed his wife and raped his daughter.
What people don't like is the movie is about an ordinary white guy who decides the police can't provide justice so he decides to do it himself. And then decides to keep killing the bad guys because corpses don't post bail and he is doing society a favor it desperately needs.
Pissed off white guy decides to solve his own problems violently. This is the theme that scares them.
