'Cujo' is set to be remade. However, it will be titled 'C.U.J.O.'. Which stands for Canine Unit Joint Operations. Word is, the dog will be some sort of robot/cyborg thingy, or a dog that has been 'altered' by the military, then escapes.
Seriously, you couldn't make this shit up.

Hmmm - seems like the two original parts have been melded together to make this one!
The film itself. Looks watchable its the female cast and dont look like they can pull it off where as in the original the jokes and humour kinda come naturaly where in this trailer it looks like their trying to hard with the humour to make it work to the extent it fails.
The ghost effects etc seem ok
But we be like sheep and watch it out of curiosity even tho deep down inside we really dont want to.

Suspiria remake brings the stars out - THE HORROR ENTERTAINMENT MAGAZINE

Tilda Swinton is an interesting one, Dakota Johnson is that bird from 50 Shades isn't she? Is she supposed to Suzi do you think?

A Suspiria remake could never capture the style that made the original such a classic.

The greatness of Suspiria isn't the script or general story, it's the vision of Dario Argento and his technical abilities with sound, colour and the camera. It's similar to Val Lewton's techniques with light and shade in the forties, and is not a thing you can replicate.

So i would think any Suspiria remake will stand or fall on it being a better story than the original and perhaps taking the action out of the girls school all together.

One Q? Why
One film that will be ruined and cant and shouldnt be remade, why is the film industry so hell bent on remaking just about every film in existence or rebooting films because either 99% of the time they are awful/garbage etc just the odd few here and there slip the net and end up being good.
The film industry really is in a sad state of affair now it seems to be remakes reboots sequels or dc and marvel superheroes, im getting bored of it now. No wonder people stick to watching the old films or obscure and underground films. And thats why its hard to have a conversation with a friend about films unless their a film enthusiastic themselves because everybody to busy watching main stream films and avoid everything else and missing out on some really good films.

If a really creative film-maker gets Suspiria it could be good, but it probably wont be and it'll be crap.

I'm dreading the day when the live-action Akira re-make is greenlit, it looks like that's never going to happen though as it's been on the cards for about 10 years now at least.

Are Hollywood writers really that short of ideas now that they can only make films that have been made before?
