There's only one wrong I want to right in this case (and have half the script I wrote to prove it): 'Plan 9 From Outer Space'. If a remake is in order, why not do the worst film ever and make a good film from it ?

it warrented a rewriting ? :eek:

why not just a different movie ?

you know - one with a plot/story/actors ..etc ..

I originally just fixed bad dialogue, mistakes, etc of original then read it back and thought "Why bother ? It's just as bad now." I re-wrote it with same basic plot, same characters, lots of story, backgrounds, etc and hate to sound egotistical, but I think it's going to make a killer movie. Best of all, I have an explanation as to WHY hottie Vampira was Bela's wife in mine :D This is my dream movie to make when I have some $$$. Hopefully I can get a little together on the movie I'm doing in Sept to do just that (plus keep my investors happy and want to do another film with me).

personally - i wouldnt mess with the worlds most famous 'it's so bad it's good' movie .. it has it's own place in cinematic history.

if you're going to fix something - look at a film like 'house of the dead' .... or 'the village'

nah. They're not public domain LOL

Does anyone think this film will be compared to Gus Van Sant's Psycho?

Here is a link about the movie, it basicly says that the remake is almost a frame per frame copy.

You know....the original is such a classic, that I see absolutely no reason for a remake (that and I'm sick of all the remakes of late) So I think I'll skip it

It's a moody horror film... the kind that relies on atmosphere and character-driven storylines to scare the audience. They "thriller"ed up the Amityville remake too. I'm waiting for a Rosemary's Baby remake with a gunfight between Romsemary and the Castevets.

For shame, Prelude95Si - linking to articles on "the competition" website. Did you read the interviews with director John Moore, right here on HDC?

Coming soon: More interviews on The Omen remake, our review, and a scene-by-scene comparison of both movies.

DEFINITELY better than the remake.
