Good remakes

[Splat]

I am Legend though it's not a true remake was good

I was disappointed with the 'vampires' for this one, felt it was a bit lazy to be honest. Would love to see a true telling of this story as done in the book...would be killer

As for the 'Fright Night' remake...you truly are evil Deadcellsociety

[deadcellsociety]

I'm english Splat. According to most films that mock the english, I'm supposed to be stereotypically 'evil'

Agree completely.

Agreed 100%

I did enjoy The Crazies quite a bit!

[BurnetRhoades]

Some I don't think I've read listed here yet:

Dark Water
Reservoir Dogs
Man on Fire
The Underneath
The Getaway

[Oxley]

The Fly
The Thing
Dracula (1992)
I thought The Wolf-Man was decent, the climax Werewolf WWE was shithouse though.

Friday The 13th is decent. People who bitch and cry about it confuse me. The originals are more or less the same. The only thing that this was missing was some decent kills, that aside it really isn't anything the older ones aren't.

I did as well.

[I_Drink_Your_Blood]

The Fly
The Thing
Dracula (1992)

Agreed on those.

Also, The Blob and Invasion of the Body Snatchers were fine remakes.

Has anyone seen the remake of Maniac yet with Elijah Wood? I have my reservations with being such a big fan of the original, although I've heard it's supposed to be pretty good.

Thank you! I personally can't stand any of the F13 movies, but fans have no right to complain about the remake. It's pretty much the original without the cheese.
