True.
However the prequel come remake of the Carpenter version wasn't very good at all.
Not sure how the movie panned out as I turned it off after about 10 minutes.
Yeah they were shite especially Elm Street which was far darker than the originals.

I like the Halloween remake. Really dislike the Friday the 13th remake, however.
but saying that, The Passion Of The Christ was nowhere near as funny as the original Life Of Brian!
King Kong was awful I think, the CGI despite being very good, did not justify that film's length or weak plot.
I'd say the Karate Kid remake is ok, Ocean's 11 is probably the best remake of all time in my opinion.
spot on
Yep. That & the Black Christmas remake.
Leaving out Biggus Dickus was a huge mistake
Best scenes from The Wicker Man: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6i2WRreARo
Nic Cage is truly the king of scenery chewers.
They should have left Alfie, Psycho and The Pink Panther alone.
the hitcher was also shite!
my favourite remake has to be the batmans - possibly because christian bale has been the best batman in my eyes.
I am keen to see the red dawn remake though when its released.
and im going to assume the dirty dancing and point break remakes are gunna suck!
How boring and depressing!
