A couple of my fav movies were remakes, namely Dawn of the Dead and The hills have eyes. Both better than the originals in my eyes.
I think when it comes to remakes the quality of the originals needs to looked at. I think that Craven's Hills have eyes was an interesting story but used cheesy effects and was a little comedic in places. So take the interesting story, step it up with far better effects and a better director in Aja and I see it as a no risk. On the other hand take a master piece like Carpenters Halloween and only bad things can happen.
So remake movies that missed the mark but had potential.
