A good portion of the films that came from Hammer's golden era(1957-65) were remakes, and I think some easily surpassed the originals- most notably Horror of Dracula. Browning's version is creaky and looks very much like the stage play it's derived from. Curse and Revenge of Frankenstein are much more animated(although the monster make-up was bad) versions too, and hold their own with the original.
As mentioned previously these weren't remakes but other adaptations of Literary Sources.
