How do you figure?

As of now, when House of Wax, for example, is mentioned, 85% of people think of Paris Hilton and Chad Michael Murray. That's sad, considering that the true ingenious of the movie, portrayed by Vincent Price long ago, is barely known and almost lost. Most people don't even know that the 2005 release is a remake, for Christ's sake. And that's just one example, it goes for most of them.

So how do you figure a remake doesn't ruin a movie?
I strongly disagree. Strongly.
