Chaos tried to be a remake of Last House and was HORRIBLE, BUT, I guess I'd give anything a try right now. This year's been good to us horror wise so far so I'm open to more.

Chaos was an official remake at one stage...Hess was involved as was the guy who played Junior.

20 years ago he was the king of low budget horror but what happens when he gets a bit of money in his pocket.He produced dross after dross after dross.

Lets be honest here,What has Craven done thats worth any merit in the last 15 years.And for those who say `Scream` lets just say that i will chose to ignore any further comments.:D

Last House is,was and always will be a hallmark in horror and should be left alone.

Scream was awesome. End of story.

Yeah I don't get that at all - Scream was great....it did produce a lot of awful self-referential band wagon jumpers but thats no reason to hate it...


I must say I love Last House but can understand why ppl don't like it and its not quit the sacred cow TCM is...Same goes with Hills have Eyes. Great film , classic in my eyes but not with out flaws. I like Deadly Blessing but Swamp thing/and the bunch of Tv movies he did were just weak..Nightmare on elm street is a classic - like Sperpant and People under..non of the rest stand out (that i have seen) - the last Freddie is did though was way better than i'd of thought...

grindhouse style violence is definately coming back - to a point - but i dont know how a graphic rape - kill - revenge film is going to fly this day and age.

The Hills Have Eyes remake? Probably not as graphic as a Last House remake should be (or even the original) but it certainly had all those things and did quite well.

And it was so bad I can't help but mention it every time somebody mentions "bad movies". I still think gorehounds should see it once, same with Murder Set Pieces, but I would never own it and NEVER suggest that it was good.

Chaos is in Roger Ebert's book Your Movie Sucks! which I agree with, except for his comments on Gojira and Cecil B. Demented.

I can't find any evidence of a Ms. 45 remake.

I thought 45 was a Ms. 45 remake.

I disagree with a lot of his picks but I still enjoy the book, he's insightful even if I don't share his opinion.
