thats a tough call..

I think remakes should happen for 2 reasons only:

1) to improve on something that was done long ago. (using state of the art FX to enhance what would have been a good film before if they had the technology.

2) to pay homage to a good film.


I think Peter Jacksons King Kong will be in the 1st case and Dawn of the Dead is in the second.

I like a well done horror remake either way because it keep the genre alive.

Now the kicker for me is that low budget horror doesnt need to be remade because often its the amateurish look that makes it effective.

MAybe Cronenbergs Scanners .... I'd like to see a 'remake' of that - or at least a quality version of it just to reawaken the series in a positive way. (I loved the origional ...)
