My favourite remake is Thirteen Ghosts ( brilliant film and love the back stories of the ghosts on special features) Worst remake is Nightmare on Elm Street- awful film and Freddy looked like a video game character. I'd love to see a remake of the tv movie The Haunted ( 1991). I found this film so creepy. Anyone else seen this, if so what did you think? |

Best: Not sure if this counts, but RZ's Halloween 2. Absolutely floored by the director's cut of that. The brutality of it all and the way Laurie is completely torn apart by the events of the first film really hit me hard in a way I wasn't expecting. It was a slasher movie with proper consequences to the violence. The scene where Brad Dourif finds his daughter is heartbreaking stuff. It's not perfect and it's very different from where the series started, so I can see how it'd rub people the wrong way, but the way it takes the standard slasher formula and destroys it by making the deaths genuinely quite upsetting and the violence really mean something makes it one of my favourite modern horrors. Worst: I really didn't like the TCM remake when it came out, but I might give it another chance since so many people seem to be OK with it. Maybe I went at it with the wrong attitude. I got one, though. Not quite a remake, again, but I accidentally bought the wrong version of Night of the Living Dead on VHS as a kid. I'd seen the film for the first time on TV and it slayed me. It was amazing. And then I bought that crappy 25th anniversary version or whatever it was, where one of the original producers had shot new material and inserted it into the film. Appalling. Most wanted: How about a found footage Candyman? Found footage is a bit hit and miss, but the scenario - researcher looking into an urban myth - lends itself well to it. I wouldn't be into a straight remake of it in the normal style as I don't think the original can be topped at all, but I'd be curious to see this. |

Worst remake was A Nightmare on Elm Street, was OK they added in a bit of the back story to Krueger but there is only one Krueger and that's Robert Englund. Best remake for me was The Hills Have Eyes, |
Fav def would be The Thing(1982) Across the board, enjoyed every second of it. Worst def goes to Nightmare on Elm Street(2010) Don't even want to go into detail on this massive turd. Most wanted has to be The Burning - Have this one with fleshed characters, lots of T & A, and brutal kills(underground style) I'd stick with Cropsey's look though. Hell even The Prowler would be a hell of a pick here. |
The Thing ’82 is one of my favourite horror films, but I’ve never considered it a remake as it’s another adaptation of the novella Who Goes There?, which The Thing from Another World is also based upon. Favourite: The Fly Worst: The Fog Most wanted: Well more of a wanted reboot really, as I would like to see Resident Evil actually done right with a faithful adaptation based on the early games. I'd love to see the Resident Evil 2 story on the big screen. |

The Thing and The Fly obviously and i really like the remake of Maniac. |
Although I think the original Maniac is very good, I consider the remake to be the better film. |
