ttop33, get over it. remakes are going to continue for two reasons wether you like it or nor. #1. Due to the poor economy, studios won't take a gamble on an original horror film, they are going to stick with what people WANT TO SEE, remakes & sequels. #2. Old horror is, well, old! it's out-dated with sloppy editing, poor storytelling and over all shitty filmmaking at it's finest!
Chainsaw, Friday, Amityville, Last House, Nightmare etc. All pieces of shit from a technical & storytelling aspect. I still love them all, but i'm not going to totally write off remakes because i'm so much of a horror homo that I can't stand the fact their remaking these so-called "classics"! I'll watch a remake with an OPEN MIND & then judge it on a film-to-film basis & not throw them in one big category.
