This will prob be moved to the movies section




I thought the psycho remake was completely pointless, shot for shot the same as the original but with weaker actors. That said the Bodysnatchers and Fly remakes are good shouts, imo ;)

There is another Bodysnatchers version made in 1993 with Gabrielle Anwar well worth checking out.


The Thing is one of my fav remakes, and Ive also got alot of time for the Night of the Living Dead remake mainly because the Barbara character is a much stronger one.

corporate starbucks might be freakier to MD lol



As for remakes.

I agree with The Fly being good. Also, I actually liked Rob Zombie's Hallowe'en. I just find movies with rednecks scary.

I refused to see the remake of Black Christmas because I am such a big fan of the original and couldn't stand to see it ruined.

I had a feeling it would be moved.

I cant believe i forgot to mention Night of the Living Dead! I agree making barbra a stronger character made that movie better in my eyes.

I will definatly check out the 93 version thank you.



Missmacabre:

I didnt want to see that remake because im a fan of the original but a old boyfriend made me watch it with him. It pissed me off so bad how they totally demolished the original in everyway.

Best remake imo would be JC's The Thing.

For the post-2000 era, Snyder's Dawn of the Dead, followed by Raimi's Ju-On: The Grudge.
