This is a problem that is just pissin' me off. Remakes!!! They should never happen, especially to horror movies. I believe if a director is making a remake it's a copout!! Don't mess with movies that are consider some of the greatest like nightmare on elm street, steel magnolia, halloween, Psycho, POLTERGEIST etc. These movies were the greatest of their time not because of the special effects but because they were genuinely scary or heartfelt. Wes Craven, Alfred Hitchcock, John Carpenter....they were original thinker. They didn't steal other people's ideas....they created monsters, characters that would cause nightmares!!! Now if you go to a scary movie, you end up laughing most of the time because you can predict what's happening, not to mention that some of the acting in these remakes is awful...I have not heard a scream queen like Jamie Lee Curtis in a very long time. It's forced, they are not truly scary....I want to walk out of a movie truly terrified, but that's not what directors are doing, they are too worried about censorship and what they need to be worried about is profit....do you think the creator of Faces of Death worried that they would ban their movies??? they didn't and those movies are banned but still very popular in the horror world and profitable, and I can't barely make it through those movies...I'm just saying that if you are trying to be a horror movie director then remakes should not be in your category, people like me people who were around through freddy, jason, Micheal myers, hellraiser, chucky, the candyman.....we will be depleased because those are movies that should never be touched for any reason....leave the classics alone, show us 80s & 90s babies that you have creativity!!!
love, peace, and screams Candy cane
