Nightmare Doom Posted August 16, 2005 With all fo the talk goin’ around the board these days of movie remakes (House of Wax, Dawn of the Dead, The Wickerman, House on Haunted Hill and so on…) I’m curious as to what we, some true-blood horror fans, would like to remake ourselves. I for one would love to see The Fall of the House of Usher remade (forget that 80s remake...Pure piss that wuz). If, for nothing else, than to get people to view, and appreciate, the original with Vincent Price and directed by Roger Cormen. I could see Tim Robbins portraying Roderick Usher, or maybe even Geoffrey Rush (since he pretty much pulled off Vincent Price’s character in House on Haunted Hill so well). :D What are your thoughts? Or do you think NO remakes should ever be made in regards to classic films? Let's have some fun with this one, friends! :D 0 Share this post Link to post

Dr. Zin Posted August 17, 2005 I'd remake Jurassic Park, so that instead of Muldoon (the warden) getting killed by the raptor, he crawls into a drainage pipe and blows the raptor's leg off (like in the book). 0 Share this post Link to post
Judge_Dredd Posted August 17, 2005 I would wait a couple years and remake Doom. I'm shocked noone beat me to it. 0 Share this post Link to post

Dco16 Posted August 17, 2005 Also, I'd remake Deep Throat to use some CGI to actually see the oddities. 0 Share this post Link to post

wildweasel Posted August 18, 2005 I respect Double Indemnity as a great classic film noir, but imagine what it'd be like in a modern setting. Of course, the main character's actions would be rather different (like slipping a business card into the doorbell - that doesn't work anymore). 0 Share this post Link to post
baronofhell Posted August 18, 2005 The super mario brothers movie, make it more like the game somehow. 0 Share this post Link to post
Quast Posted August 18, 2005 Lawrence of Arabia and/or Sparticus. I'd make them terrible too, just so people would hemorrhage over it "OMG you don't touch them classics!" as if a remake somehow makes the originals worse or something 0 Share this post Link to post
Ayu Posted August 18, 2005 Fiend said:I'd remake the remake of Psycho. You're an idiot fiend. I'd probably remake "The Wall" well, not exactly a remake, but a re-try. I love it already, but the current movie is a little rushed and doesn't handle Pink Floyd's concept as good as it should. 0 Share this post Link to post

I usually don't like to see people make remakes because it shows lack of originality, but w/e. 0 Share this post Link to post
baronofhell Posted August 18, 2005 This old movie called "the entity"....it's basically about a evil ghost sexually abusing a lonely woman, a true story by the way. 0 Share this post Link to post

Gokuma Posted August 19, 2005 This must be the same Baronofhell from the Newdoom forum. You sure you're not confusing a scene of Ghostbusters with reality? 0 Share this post Link to post

baronofhell Posted August 19, 2005 Go to your local blockbuster or hollywood video, and rent "the entity", you won't be disappointed. It's an old movie, but pretty freaky imo. 0 Share this post Link to post

baronofhell Posted August 20, 2005 Legend would be another good movie I would like to se revisited. 0 Share this post Link to post
DooMer87 Posted August 20, 2005 definitely Ferris Bueller's Day Off. I would, however, like to see a sequel more than a remake. The style would be lost, with all the actors aging and all that./ 0 Share this post Link to post
Sharessa Posted August 26, 2005 I always thought that Wizards would be a lot better without the rotoscoping and more directed towards adults. It wouldn't hurt to make it a bit longer either. Also, there are a few remakes that are better than the originals. John Carpenter's The Thing and Ocean's Eleven as a couple of examples. 0 Share this post Link to post
