Day of the Dead (2007) Steve Miner Almost completely different from the original film in every aspect. Gore, acting, and story-wise, this forgettable remake pales in comparison, and offers nothing we haven't seen before in the genre, aside from... |

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003) Marcus Nispel A good remake, but it fails to top the original, but does top it in some aspects. Worth a check. |
