What "scary" movie/book do you want remade/rebooted?

The first half of Jess Franco’s Count Dracula (1970) is amazingly faithful to the book, and it has Christopher Lee as Dracula! Filmed in an actual castle(not a set)! Klaus Kinski as Renfield! Herbert Lom as Van Halsing.

Watched a bit of it on YouTube. They had me up until they used German shepherds as “wolves.”

For that matter, I’d like to see Lovecraft’s The Shadow Over Innsmouth and The Case of Charles Dexter Ward done right. I know that there are more versions that have been made than the ones I’ve seen, but the versions I’ve seen have been awful, and I find it hard to believe that others have done these justice.

Are you referring to Dagon? I thought it was quite good.

Stick to Scooby Doo, lite beer, and chicken nuggets until you develop an adult’s palette.

Quite well said.

The OP is showing his/her age/immaturity by naming, well, all of his/her choices. But especially The Exorcist and Jaws.

OP, I suggest you go and watch the shot-for-shot remake of Psycho from a few years ago, and then revisit your first post.

You’re suggesting what exactly, that the Psycho remake is better than the original?

Whatever you’re yammering on about, I suggest you go re-watch your favorite Paulie Shore movie…but not before you get your Algebra homework done, son.

Dagon’s not the only attempt to make The Shadow Over Innsmouth, but it’s probably the most widely distributed.

I’ve seen it. It has its points, but it’s too bloody bloody, substituting gore for Lovecraft’s atmosphere.
