So I voted...

The Hills Have Eyes - Because it's better than Craven's campy original (and a rare instance of a remake surpassing the original IMO.)

Dawn of the Dead - Which is a fun re-imagining. It's exciting, gory, pacy, polished.. I like it, but it doesn't hold any kind of torch to the original. Chalk and cheese.

Night of the Living Dead - In a class of its own really. I think Savini's film has atmosphere to boot. It's a different film to Romero's, but incredibly unsettling. I'm quite a fan.

Dark Water - Again with the re-imagining, it's nowhere near as good as Hideo Nakata's film, but it's a vastly different, far more psychological piece. Salles brings the melancholy and Jennifer Connelly is terrific. I liked it a lot.

That's about it for me.
