Should the classics be remade?
[My fiance and I got into it over seeing the remake of I Spit on your Grave. I think they should remake the classics.It keeps them fresh. He thinks they shouldnt, that they can't capture the power and grit of the origina, which is a must see for all women. Paybacks a bitch! I'd love to hear what you thinkFONT="Arial"][/FONT]

Personally I thought the movie was shit. Not worthy of remake. Like Cannibal Holocaust it was famous cause of shock value (least that's how I see it). However it does have a big enough fan base to get a remake.

At the moment I am so tired of remakes I would have to say no, remakes are rarely a good thing. For every good remake there are roughly 20 crappy ones.

I got sick to death of sub par remakes after I caught The Last House On The Left. But then I remembered there were a few that were actually pretty good.
The Fly (1986), The Blob (1988) and Savini's Night Of The Living Dead remake did make me delve deeper into horror when I was younger so maybe they are a good thing to get people interested in horror flicks... It's not like they've taped over the originals with the new versions so it's all good by me. But I'd definitely prefer to see more original films get made. It's weird how remakes basically are subgenre of their own now. ...and say what you will about them but there's no denying they've put horror back into the spotlight a bit. Quote:

That's your personal opinion. Respect mine. Thank you.

I don't see how remaking a film keeps the originals "fresh."
I'm infamous on this board for hating remakes. I'll have to admit there are a few I like. A very few. But, like Elvis, I'd prefer to see the resources used to make more original films. There are so many worthy projects that are passed over because they can't get funding, yet a crappy, by the numbers remake will always get the go ahead.

Also: Why are remakes such a hot topic for n00bs? I feel like we have this discussion every few months or so. It's getting exhausting... Or maybe they're keeping the topic 'fresh'. ;)
