What is the best or worst remake from an old movie or tv show?

I hate what they did to Scooby doo. Those movies are horrid! Dukes of Hazzard..dont get me started. Ugh..The A Team? Nobody tops the real Mr. T.

I heard they were gonna remake Footloose and Drop dead Fred..hmm dont like this idea either.

Havenīt seen many but i liked The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003), The Hills Have Eyes (2006)
and The Last House on the Left (2009).
Not classics but entertaining flicks.

The worst iīve seen so far must be Gone in Sixty Seconds (2000)
Yuck!

Oh I deff liked the new Chainsaw massacre, The hills have eyes was a little gross for me and Last house on the left was sick. I like more "monster" type killers, like Freddy, Michael and Jason.

If you saw it, what'd you think of Rob Zombies remake of Halloween? Personally, I loved it. Thought it was cool that there was a little more back story.

Ha yeah I agree on Gone in 60 seconds. Blah, 2 thumbs down!

I totally love Rob Zombie films they are so different they always keep you on edge to the end, and his music is fantastic too (big fan lol)

On the other hand, you can effectively counterargue that not knowing anything about where Michael's coming from makes him a more frightening figure, and that keeping his body count to a minimum as Carpenter did initially make the kills more terrifying. So I'd have to say no there.

The original Halloween & Halloween II are so sacred to me that
i donīt know if i really should watch those Rob Zombie remakes.
But somehow i think that someday my bro will force me to do so [Smile]

I liked the Halloween remake. It was definitely better than part 8! Part 2 is....interesting. There are some things I like about it and some things I don't.

I haven't really found a lot of luck with other remakes, to be honest. The worst one has to be April Fool's Day!

I loved Zombie's remake of Halloween, and I liked his Halloween 2. As for other remakes, I liked Texas Chainsaw Massacre and the Dukes of Hazzard. Course, that could just be cause I like Johnny Knoxville...hee hee. [Big Grin] I also liked the Nightmare on Elm St. remake.

On the other hand, I HATED the remakes of Prom Night, The Fog and When a Stranger Calls.
