Remakes never really bothered me until quite recently after watching The Last House On The Left remake. There's good and bad ones of course and that was one of the ratshit variety. I enjoyed stuff like the Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Dawn of the Dead remakes when they came out but now they just seem dumbed down to me and kinda pointless. I'd rather see "homages" or something original but I still check out remakes to see for myself just how bad/good they are. Really interested in seeing the Elm Street remake to see what the do differently with the character of Freddy. That would I guess be my main drive at seeing most remakes...
Does it strike anyone else as weird how remakes have become somewhat of a subgenre?

do you mean only horrors are getting remade?if so i think you can only have so many ways of killing people. i mean a person,alien,evil forces,machines{terminator,christine,etc} and also ways of killing like chainsaw,machete,beating,tortureburied alive etc. film makers must be running out of ideas?

I understand why remakes are made, but the notion that movie makers are 'running out of ideas' or are just having a hard time coming up with them is just sad.
Remakes can't hurt you if don't watch them.
