I like remakes, gives me a chance to see a movie in another light and if this one is nothing but a gore filled zombie flick without any social commentary than so be it... if it's good. If it sucks then I always have the original. See, if they change enough then the remake changes and becomes it's own creature instead of simply trying to replicate the original which I enjoy. The only downside to remakes is that most of them suck but why is that such a big deal? Don't watch the crappy one, seems pretty easy to me. The only thing a remake might do is confuse younger generations who go in not knowing about the original so the remake is all the see and they deem the movie trash. Although, even that's unlikely because everytime a remake is released a special edition of the original is hyped regularly on DVD (Fog, Omen, Ammityville, Dawn of the Dead, Gone in 60 Seconds, Itallian Job, TCM, etc...).
