    Interesting that there are two remakes with Chloe Moretz on this list. She was also in remakes of "The Amityville Horror" and "The Eye" and there might be more. I saw one just this year where she was fighting a gremlin, though it wasn't a remake of "Gremlins." I guess I'm saying that she's prolific and I like her work
    I think it's interesting that "Ju-on" and "The Grudge" had the same director. He essentially remade his own movie (which he'd already done before since "Ju-on" was adapted from his student film). "Ju-on" was good, but I think "The Grudge" benefitted from a drearier color palate which enhanced the visual tone and foreboding mood of the film and they trimmed one of the plotlines (the schoolgirls) for a more streamlined narrative (though their storyline was adapted in the sequel).

      Some basic flaws in the original.
      Optimistic ending (uuuggghh!!!)
      Miles was away hardly even
      a minute or two from Becky
      before she changed.
      Not very believable in the context.
      In the remake, Matthew
      is gone considerably longer
      &, upon returning,
      the transformation still hasn't
      finished, which makes more sense
      & it leaves Matthew trying in vain
      to hold on to the last vestiges
      of Elizabeth, who then crumbles
      away in his arms, as the pod version
      suddenly appears out of nowhere.
      Also, it's just done better--
      eerie effects, great score,
      inventive directing, super cast,
      finely-tuned script.
      There supposedly were
      arguments about the original,
      how it should've had the more
      shocking ending rather than
      the hopeful one. Might've helped.
      Again, THE best remake ever, IMO.

      Both of them had parts from their respective source material they didn't adapt into those movies, like the towns destroyed at the end of both novels as well as that controversial gangbang scene from the IT novel.
      Hell, even the TV movie remake of Carrie got the destroyed town part right, even though it was made with crappy CGI.

    • @milescoburn1845
      @milescoburn1845 3 года назад +3

      Exactly!
      John Carpenter's 1982 "The Thing" IS NOT a sequel to 1951's "The Thing From Another World". No matter what anyone (including John Carpenter himself) says.
      While they both draw upon John W. Campbell's novella, "Who Goes There?", there are few aspects of either film in the other. The only thing they have in common is 1) there is an alien that crashed on Earth, and 2) the story takes place in a cold clime. Even this has an important difference. The '51 film takes place in the Arctic (near the North Pole) while the '82 film is set in Antarctica. No character from either film are in the other. The alien in "Thing From Another World" is vegetable-based and needs blood (animal or human) to reproduce via seed pods (ostensibly to take over the world). The alien in "John Carpenter's "The Thing" assimilates the life forms it comes into contact with (ostensibly to eventually take over the world, other animal life included). In "Thing From Another World" there is a military presence as protagonists as well as a love interest for the ranking officer. Neither are found in "John Carpenter's The Thing".
      Similarities: 1) An alien crashes on Earth; 2) The film is set in a cold clime; 3) Fire is used as the main weapon against the alien (moving to electricity in "Thing From Another World").
      "John Carpenter's The Thing" is more faithful to the source material. But both films are very good, and should be looked at as separate entities. I think the idea "John Carpenter's The Thing" was a sequel came about because people are lazy and just abbreviated the title from "The Thing From Another World" to simply, "The Thing".

The movie was not bad by any means and even pays homage to the originals. Please consider that next time you decide to mention horror remakes. And of the same decade, A Nightmare on Elm Street was also missing. It may not have been as good but still deserves to at least be mentioning for reinvigorating Freddy’s character as well.

    The Last House on The Left remake is so much better than the original. The acting, the script, the cinematography. The fact that they toned the Sexual down to 20% and the violence to 200%. Like honestly, that bit with Krug being paralysed and knowing he’s going to die all while the doctor puts on his doctor voice, then as his eyes glaze over and he’s shoved head first into a microwave. I also liked how the main girl survived the end, made it so much less depressing than the original.
    Also the characterisation of Junior was so much better.
