Don't get me wrong I have like in the past a few remakes such as the hills have eyes, and Texas chainsaw massacre. All though I never saw the original so that is probably why I liked them. Now if it was jaws that I would go for just because of the new technology out there. Though I would want a new story line that dose not relate to the original. The horror industry really needs to start producing better horror. The last movie that I was obsessed with was the Hamilton. the last movie that kept me from sleeping was the sixth sense and the ring so they need to produce better one because I'm pretty easy to scare. What dose every one else think!?:confused:

Get informed. See the original versions. They've done worse things to better movies. And check out the HDC top lists if you're looking for something scary and interesting. If they do remake Hellraiser, the only thing I could see them doing for it would be to make it more like the novella it was based on. Hellraiser is itself an adaptation. To adapt again from the same source material is not unheard of. Look at Christopher Nolan's Batman movies for example. It was done so that a new slant could be taken on the source material. Jaws also originated from a book. If you have something new to say about Peter Benchley's novel, it might be worth remaking Jaws. If you want a CGI shark that probably won't even look as cool as the original shark, there's no reason to bother.
