I really, very much, strongly disagree with most remakes...but I liked The Amityville Horror and Dawn of the Dead remakes...

Amityville. Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead, The Thing, House On Haunted Hill, Cape Fear, Texas Chainsaw Massacre are not too bad

I guess it depends on how good the original fairs by todays standards

The Thing: Probably the best remake of any Genre that I can think of.

Phantom of the Opera: The original with Lon Chaney Sr. is and always will be the best, however, I did like Herbert Loms version of it very much.

Dracula: Bela's a classic, but Christopher Lee runs circles around all others.

Ther are others, but I'm on a tight schedule.

I won't state my opinion on remakes because I have already ad nauseam, but I like several. Cronenberg's remake of The Fly is one of my favorites, if not my absolute favorite. I also really enjoyed the Dawn of the Dead remake, I couldn't believe how much I liked that movie. Cape Fear was a good one. I'm sure there are several more, but I can't seem to think right now.

Cool

The Thing and Night of the Living Dead are my favourites, Dawn of the Dead was decent but in MY OPINION The Amityville Horror is the worst ever. It makes the original look like an Oscar nominated movie.
