Here's a good question

[Leslie Daher]

what one of the TOP horror movies SHOULD be re-made? i know that all the ones we truly love are probably on the way to being re-made because hollywood is idea bankrupt right now BUT what movie seemed to have a good idea to start but because of budget or bad acting or whatever could use an update?

i say phantasm.

I think Day Of The Dead would be a good re-make if they used the original script

"The Fog" could benefit from some of the advancements in the visual department, as long as they keep the atmosphere of the original.

I'd remake Shivers, by Cronenberg.

hmmm I think they should leave all those movies alone and get some new ideas, remakes are just a marketing ploy because the famous name guarentees you a certain amount of box office even if the film sucks! Plus alot of those movies are products of there time only realy working in the format of the decade they where realesed!
Remakes work best if the original is not a classic and there for can be improved upon i.e Oceans 11(I know its not horror just an example)

How ever much older horrors long forgotten 40's 50's stuff could do with a remake!

I think the legend of the 7 golden vampires (golden harvest/hammer joint production) would lend it self to a fantastic remake as the original was not made to its *full potential, as long as a hong kong team did it and not a U.S. one!

*dont get me wrong its still a cool film Peter Cushing is the don!!!

yea it was scary in the 70s but wouldnt it be alot scarier now?


i think it would be;)

I think the remake would not capture the same atmosphere as the first one.

I would like to see a remake of this as well. I don't think it would be scarrier, because there will probably be a good deal of CGI involved:rolleyes: instead of doing it the old way, which is the best way.

But, it would be interesting to see who they would cast as Regan. I think the little girl who was in all of the Pepsi commercials would be a good choice. LOL
