    Although you are technically right, the thing is still classed as a remake, and as pretty much everybody else has said, is the best remake.

    In most arenas people look at it as a remake, but not all my friend. I used to refer to Carpenter's "The Thing" as a remake too, not anymore, because it isn't. There are very few similarities between "The Thing From Another World" and "The Thing."

    I'm not really sure if the Body Snatchers movie could be classified as a remake but if I had to choose it would be tops on my list since The Thing doesn't really qualify.

    DOTD was one of the better ones but it seems it lost some of the (forgive the pun) bite from the deliberate jabs at consumerism Romero was making. I especially enjoy the quote about the mall "This place was important to them". Great line!

    The Zombie Halloween also runs pretty high on my list. Granted it's hard to compare it to the original, but the pure rage exhibited in The Shape is what made the movie fun for me.

    The My Bloody Valentine remake is also quite entertaining. I always found the original somewhat mediocre, but Lussier did a fantastic job with taking a marginal movie and making it a very fun experience.

    Any George A Romero fan would agree that the only relation the "remake" of Dawn of the Dead had to the original was that it took place in a mall. Also, zombies aren't fast paced (the idea is ripped from Boyle's infected) and that although Dawn of the Dead had it's moments like the live-still birth, it is not a good remake. As a movie by itself, it is decent. However, you are entitled to your opinion. The original surpassed it alone, not only in originality, but also in its social commentary. It didn't even have the bikers from the original, but of course you would know that, had you seen the original, or had an idea of what zombies are... it's ok, you'll learn eventually.

    I'm a GAR fan and I don't agree with that. His influence is all over that remake, media coverage, survivor guilt and ingenuity, isolation. I for one am glad it wasnt a scene for scene copy...that would suck. Seeing a different take on the same concept can be a double edged sword, is it as good as the original? No. Is it one of the better zombie movies of the last 10 years? Yes.

    Oh and though people like to attribute it to Mr. Boyle, he didnt invent "running zombies" that has been around long before him. Check out RotLD again if you don't beleive me. There are others as well before that.
