Remakes...
 
Okay, I'm not a fan of remakes. I hate them, especially when they mess with a great film. However, some movies could use an updated version. Willard is a good example of this. What movie would you pick to remake if you could?

Ritualistic 10-13-2003 04:01 PM

Avenger I would have to say "Nekromantik" a lot of people doesnt know of this movie but I would love to see a remake of it... I know a lot more gross shit would be done with it.. Have you ever seen it..??

Jesus...it's 27 dollars!! I ain't got that kind of money. Haha. Thanks for the link though. Hopefully I'll find it to rent somewhere.

Killer Clown#1 10-13-2003 04:14 PM

Scarecrow slayer. I'm serious I loved the first one but the second one was just really bad. They could take out the crappy computer effects and put practical ones in there, and they could get better actors, I can stand bad acting but this acting was so bad I could not take it anymore.And the over acting really sucked like when the girl laughed her ass off at her own dumb ass joke, damn bitch almost blew my speakers.:mad:

LOL damn they went up on the price since I bought it... I bought it for 22 bucks last month.. That is still cheaper than paying over 50 for it.. Man you got to get this movie... It is a foreign film and it is hard to come by... trust me it will be hard to rent it.. It will be cut up like a mother fucker if you do find it... all the best parts will be cut out of it....if I had a recorder I would make a copy for you just so you could see it..

avenger00soul 10-13-2003 04:25 PM

I would love to see it if it's half as good as you say it is. I don't have that kind of money right now though. I'll check out some other sites and see what I can find out about it.

And after I praise ya in the Night of the Living Dead thread for know sh*t. Haha!:)

Ya know, here's a bad thought.......
Ritualistic can put his movie on his 'puter and get on some p2p type server then Avenger can download it.....but if ya only have a dial-up like me (unfortunately) it can take days to get it.....it's just a thought, of course.....and I know that's the bad thing to do politically wise...........my apologies to those who don't believe in using p2p!!!!:o :eek:

roguesblight 10-16-2003 12:22 AM

oh yeah, I don't know my remake yet! but I'll think overnight and get back to ya on that! I must sleep sometime ya know. O'course I have been up for almost 4 whole days now, maybe I never need to sleep again.........Oh hell no, I usually love to sleep, so now i plan on catching up...ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ;) :o

lilangel_66071 10-16-2003 06:49 AM

LEt see a movie i would remake hmmmm thats a hard one there's so many. I think monster dog, it had alice cooper in it , it would rock if it was redone. Also tourist trap.

Sure, but only if Alice Cooper was still in it! That's the main thing I LOVED about it! Cause I grew up listening to him! He was, is and always will be Cool!!:cool:




ritualistic, sorry, no offense meant! That just makes ya cooler! Another girl!:D




ok, maybe i'd like to see Blair Witch remade! Better quality filming, show a bit more, but not too much, I'm not wanting it to be a gore fest, just more interesting and captivating! Scarier!!!:)

SCREAMERatorX 10-17-2003 02:57 AM

dont ask Y? but, i reckon a remake of The Thing needs 2be done....((but only if Kurt Russell was in it!...and he acted as well as he did in BTrouble In LChina ))
seriously, good concept with potential.

A Thing remake would suck why would you mess with somthing thats great. They would just use cgi creatures, and The Thing is already a remake of a black and whit one titled "the thing from another world" but the alien was completly diffirent.

The Sci-fi channel may be remaking the Thing as a six hour mini-series.:confused:

OK ok ... bad example of a possible remake .... i actually was meant 2say, a sequal for the thing would be the go!!
but since a six hour mini-series is getting done, NO NEED!!

i agree, re-working a re-work,, may not b such a good idea ...
i had no idea bout the one from the other world (although, B/W, well, well b4 my time,) and my horror knowledge is not extensive enough, but after hangn at horror.com 4 a week or 2, its expanding!!:o

Good to hear that your horror knowledge is expanding. But they have "re-worked a re-work": Invasion of the Body Snatchers. It's been remade twice and Hollywood is giving it another go soon.

SCREAMERatorX 10-17-2003 06:48 AM

Yeah...... Invasion of the Body Snatchers..

dont know much bout that 1 either..

why do u think they keep re-doing it??
is it written by a famous aurthor??

Well, IMO, it's the greatest science-fiction movie ever made. The original film still holds up quite well today. I really don't see a reason for another remake, but you know Hollywood. On the other hand, sometimes remakes turn out to be cool. We'll see.

SCREAMERatorX 10-17-2003 07:17 AM

whats :: IMO ?? 4give my lack of forum termanology ... i am learning though....

Is it true about Dawn of the Dead getting a Remake??

coz, generally, the whole idea of remaking gives me the shits...
I STRONGLY reckon that originality is a must !!:p
however, 2 b honest and fair to the remakers, if they don't go out and give it a complete Hollywood Makeover, and keep its identity, it can sometimes work. Its always hard 2 "do one better" than a classic. U have 2 start 2 wonder if some1 remakes a movie coz they cant think of anything betta temselves and they want 2 cash in on its past fame...... OR if the whole story is made to adapt more to today's society. being that most original and entertaining horror is around 10-20 yrs old, I think that remaking a REAL classic for the sake of today's horror fans, and 2 get them 2 even give 'oldies' a chance,, remakes will continue 2 be remade...

its tha Reworked, remake, thats been re-made 4 the 10th time that should be put in the cabin and slashed....

IMO means In my opinion. Yes, the Dawn remake is about ready to hit theaters. I just saw the trailer and it surprised me. Maybe, just maybe, this won't be god awful.

They talked about Albert Fish a little in House of 1000 Corpses. He sounded fucked up.

roguesblight 10-19-2003 08:52 PM

yeah, okay thanks, i remember that one now! Which one took place in a military type complex under ground, or was that the beginning of that one? told ya it's been a while. Those movies are great whichever ones they are, and they make me think, what the hell would we do if that really happened?! Makes me shudder!
