I wouldn't say it's better than the original, but the prequel to Silence of the Lambs called "Red Dragon" was very good IMO. 7.2 rating on IMDB, 7.4 audience score on Rotten Tomatoes suggests that it was fairly well received.
Certainly worth a watch if you enjoyed Silence of the Lambs. In comparison, the sequel to SotL, "Hannibal", was an abomination.
