Here's the thing:
I'm actually not a huge fan of the original, though it definately had it's moments. However, a remake is not justifiable for this, because I feel like all the parts that did work worked because of the raw, gritty 70s feel/atmosphere/tone/whatever.
This is one, like Halloween and The Evil Dead, that just needs to be left alone.
It belongs in the time period it was created in. Now we need to start creating good time pieces (as far as horror. We've certainly created some good ones in other genres), or our time (us young'uns) will fail to be as significant in horror's history as the rest of a good portion of 100 years.
