'Needful Things' + Mike Flanagan = Joy!
An absolutely excellent idea!
Maximum overdrive 😌
@@mikesilva3868 Oh, yesss! That would be fantastic!!
Can't go wrong with Flanagan adapting any of King's work 😊
Firestarter + Mike Flanagan = Bliss!
@@kjetiljansen355 Yikes - that would be total nirvana! So many early SK movies needing an update!!
I'm a big fan of Hellraiser. I don't think it NEEDS a remake, but if it were done seriously, it could be beautiful!
They are remaking it currently!
@@spookyastronauts that is not a remake, its a reboot.
Oh... The strange case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. My favourite book. Would LOVE a respectfully treated movie.
I’d like to add Event Horizon to the list. It’s still a fun movie but the concept had a lot more potential that a remake could explore.
Stir Of Echoes ( Mike Flannigan would be perfect for it )
Fear Dot Com
THEY
I want a prequel for Cabin In The Woods
FEAR
When Darkness Falls
Storm of the century
Hide and Seek
Mirrors ( I want it to actually be scary. Like seeing nothing behind you but it being there waiting for you to fall asleep and it coming out to mess with you. And in the dark the main character thinks he sees something in the mirror but blows it off because in the dark if you look at yourself too long in the mirror your mind creates weird faces. And it goes into that deeply. And sleep paralysis because the mirror is in front of his bed. So when he has sleep paralysis or what he thinks is that he sees her come out of the mirror. )
completely agree on Slenderman. Would watch "The Lair..." remake. As a mix of "Under the skin" and "Antlers"? DEFINITELY!
I'd like to see a remake of Demons, from 1985. I think it would be interesting to see a new take on the classic. Greetings!
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I would love that! However, I need makeup and not alot of CGI.
No sabía que andabas por acá Bicho, que gustazo
For years i been hoping for someone to come up with Demons remake, i rather see old horror films to get remade, not really recent films. Specially Foreign films... Lucio Fulci The Beyond & City Of The Living Dead (Aka) Gates Of Hell with more zombies than the original, Gates Of Hell title was a better fit for the film.
With Suspiria being part of a trilogy I would LOVE to see the other two of the Three Mothers films remade! the last came out 2018 but didnt have that Goblin sound track like the first two!
YESSS on Lair of the White Worm! And I actually did have the thought that The Mangler, if remade today but took place in the steam and electro-obsessed Victorian Era as sort of an allegory of the excitement and addiction of brand new technology vs. the ignorance of the very real danger of that same new tech could make it very relatable to modern audiences if done right.
I would love a remake of Nightmare on Elm Street, using concepts of sleep paralysis and making a dark psychological thriller. And since Freddy is such an iconic villain, it can be worked more like a creature feature without showing Freddy so much.
It'd be interesting to make a NOES movie where it's not certain whether there is a monster; it might just be a mass hysteria thing. Hell, maybe even have one kid with breathing problems, so when they die in their sleep, it could be because of their condition.
Ooo interesting
@@spookyastronauts Hee, thanks!
They should focus on surreal dream sequences. I'm talking Lynchian nightmares and Silent Hill visuals with some inspiration from The Cell or Paprika. NOES has a great potential for that.
I would love to hear your take on non-horror movies that could be remade into horror.
Omg this is a great idea!
@@spookyastronauts I have had this thought for awhile about taking a funny and light comedy like Weekend at Bernies and how it could be turned into a dark and gory horror movie.
Start with The In Laws.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
I just watched Adore (2013) and I was thinking the whole time how the story could easily devolve into a horror
I'd like a remake of Don't Look Now, a modernised version, the setting should still remain in Venice, Italy.
As the fog rolls in it creates an eerie vibe. Buildings and bridges disappear into the mist. Fog-horns blare from deep within the haze. And sitting on the canal side feels like sitting on the edge of an abyss.
that'd be great, hard to top the OG though
YES
Phantasm with todays effects could do well. I feel like this is a forgotten classic. I heard about it through older friends that saw it in theaters
I just tried to watch that the other day. I love the Tall Man character but the other ones I didn’t care for. That movie came to mind for me too. It’s such a good concept that needs a new take!
@@StephanieHall2672 Yes, faster pacing, reimagining, and today's special effects would make this 1 better
Lair of The White Worm has my favorite Doctor in it so I definitely need to check it out. Thanks for bringing it to my attention, Emma.
Wow I completely forgot that Poltergeist was remade until you mentioned it
Haha we all did 😂
Yes Slenderman was one I was gonna say.
Sleepaway camp
Spawn (which we are still waiting)
I'd be down for a Lair of the White Worm remake, so long as we get that song! :D
13 ghosts was a great remake, scared the bajesus out of me with its creative visuals.
I agree
UZUMAKI by Junji Ito Definitely need a remake with today's technology and complete faithful to the book(manga). If it's done better like the First 'The Ring' remake.
Isn't there an upcoming anime adaptation?
I would like to watch The Stuff remade! It has a message that is still true today and it would benefit from a sort of actualization
They should remake Stephen King’s Silver Bullet! We haven’t had a scary werewolf flick in years & with new technology it would be pretty awesome!
I’m tempted to suggest Ben, despite how the Willard remake worked out. I think Ben and both Willards deliver some of what they promise, but only some. Hard to say whether the answer is to camp it up or to get serious about the emotional lives of the characters. Technically, the rats can be much scarier than in the 70’s movies, but I don’t know if scary rats are enough to carry an entire film anymore. Titanic, in the 1990’s, and, more recently, Stranger Things, might have gotten all the mileage there is to be gotten, with just a few shots of masses of rodents. Yet I can’t help thinking there are some good rat-and-lonely-human movies to be made.
Jurassic Park is perfect as it is. But I would love to see a rated R interpretation of it. The original novel was much more scary, serious and dark.
I read a Slenderman novel earlier this month that was published by an ~anonymous source.~ it was basically found footage in book form, with journal entries, police interview transcripts, transcripts of emails and reddit messages, and even some bits of creative writing. I'm not sure how similar it is to Marble Hornets since I haven't watched it yet, but I think a movie like that would be awesome if they figured out how to translate everything to film -- or maybe I'm biased because I enjoy the found footage genre so much💁
i would like to see a remake of the richar matheson clasics "i´m legend" and "the incledible shrinking man" those books have a strong feeling of solitud and helplessness that the movies dosn´t transmit
Emma you are so precious! Thanks for the great content as usual.
I wanted to mention to you, I follow you on Letterbox’d and was perusing the page for my favorite film of all time, The Fall (2006) starring Lee Pace. I noticed it was on your “want to watch” list. So please run, don’t walk to go see it! It’s truly a magical experience. ♥️
I adore your recommendations, your themed videos, like this one for example,and the monthly new movies for us to watch! Your taste in movies is very similar to mine,so i may be biased hahaha! Its a shame you are not more recognized in the movie review community
I think RAWHEAD REX is a horror that deserves to be remade. The idea of an ancient Celtic demon rampaging across the English north country is awesome. Also John Irvin's GHOST STORY (1981) needs some tlc.
I loved Needful Things, both the book and the movie, but that's me. LOL! But Mike Flanagan! YES, I'd love to see that!!
Here's a weird idea. What if they remade some of the old Amicus portmanteau films, keeping the storylines (both the framing device and the segments) but just updating the time period and the effects?
Countess Dracula, captain Kronos, vamp, the stuff, children of the corn, the children.
Even though I love all of these films I’d love to see new rakes on them.
I would love to see Winchester remade. I know it’s newish but how do you make a movie about the awesomeness of The Winchester House and give us such a subpar film. Let’s get a movie about the Winchester house we deserve! Thanks Emma!
This, absolutely! Make it a dark character study of Sarah Winchester where you don't know what's real and what isn't, like The Shining or The Witch.
Hey Emma,
One old slasher that I always thought would need a remake is Terror Train! The whodunit element along with the idea that there is no escape on a moving train,has tons of potential and could be creepy as hell!! The one complaint that comes up above all others is the lack of blood,and no great kill scenes. Nowadays violent kills and lots of blood are a welcomed sight,and are used quite liberally(see Evil Dead 2014). I could go on and on but I know your time is limited,so I'll sign off now. Keep up the great work Emma...You are Awesome!!
We need Watchers by Dean Koontz done seriously. I would kill to see a Mike Flanagan mini series of this one. Still my favorite book by Dean Koontz
The Shining. The Kubrick movie's great, it's just NOTHING like the book. The topiary animals are left out, Danny's encounter with the bees, firehose, and the ending is WAY different. All the stuff that occured with Jack prior to The Overlook is as important as the themes that feel merely touched upon in the Kubrick film. I think Ari Aster could tackle it...
@Smilebackifyoureugly I'm still trying to find where I can stream it. King prefers it over the movie. I'd still like to see a new film that's more true to the book version. The books great though I'd recommend it.
@@col2281 it's available cheap on dvd and I loved it. King did the screenplay, so it really is his story.
You can watch the tv version on UA-cam I believe… it’s horrid
@@spookyastronauts I still can't believe that King prefers it to Kubrick's version even if it closer to the sourc material.
Agreed
It blows my mind that in the this day and age that NIGHTBREED is not a series.
Totally agree. As much as I love Hellraiser,I was completely sucked in the first time I saw Nightbreed. Years later I read Cabal and was even further hooked.
Pitch 1: Remake Home Alone as a horror movie but still have Macaulay Culkin in the main role as the victim. You get Kevin MaCallister as a full grown man getting home invaded and he sets traps for the burglars( if you wanted to be really nuts it would be the exact same traps but with realistic consequences ), it plays out exactly the same as the original including old man next door taking out the wet bandits with a shovel.
Pitch 2: Anaconda. Anthropologists studying tribes in the amazon find that 2 remote,barely in contact with civilization tribes/villages have disappeared since their last contact ( say a year or so ). anthro's find giant snake skin at village sites and see snake iconography that wasn't there last visit. Next we send in your standard team of expendable scientists to slowly get picked off by a giant anaconda. They die in an increasingly outrageous fashion from the snake until we have the final showdown with whoever ends up being the main character.
or not?
I know it's already in production with Zac Efron and the girl from AHS Double Feature in the lead, but FIRESTARTER sucks. It's a cool concept and from I've heard a good book. In this era of superhero flicks Blumhouse has to deliver something decent.
Needful Things and The Mangler remake? Eh, I guess. I enjoyed both. I mean the Mangler has the Tobe Hooper craziness to it, so it will always be special to me. I agree with Slenderman, good lord that film was a mess.
Mike Flanagan doing anything after Midnight Mass would be incredible. That blew me away.
The Tommyknockers and I’d be ok with another IT, yes, already w/less left out, Dreamcatcher, Salem’s Lot (2009 version doesn’t count as a remake, I hadn’t even heard of it until like 2 weeks ago by accident) and I’d be good with Needful Things. Oh, and please bring back Castlerock!
Storm of the Century is the only thing that I can think of at the moment. It's by far my favorite King miniseries, but I'd be okay if someone did a modern take on it. Colm Feore would be the hardest to replace to me because he did such an amazing job.
I totally agree about Needful Things! I realize there is always a debate about books vs movies and this is no exception. I loved the book so much that I feel it deserves a proper movie.Although I love the original, I would love to see a modern take on Waxworks. Like you mentioned Emma , with modern technology it would be exciting to see what they could do with that story. Having said that how could you replace David Warner ? Hello Mr Del Torro , this one is for you !
OMG, nothing can beat the version of Evil Dead 2 with Bruce Cambell, were you talking about Evil Dead that came out in the 2000s? Yuck, I walked out on that one, sooo bad.
Am glad you mentioned Evil dead 2013 I really love that movie, and it's one of my all time favorite horror film ever
I would love to see A Tale of Two Sisters American remake by Ari Aster but he has a freedom to make it a fucked up family drama like his short film about the Johnsons.
There's already a US version of that movie, but it was a bit lackluster.
I’d love to see a remakes of
- The Purge. I know they’re still making them and it’s still too fresh but every one of those movies have such a good idea and then they turn them into action films. Imagine if Fede Alvarez or even Zombie was given that story instead. We could’ve had some of the best and goriest horror films out there.
- Slender Man is top 3 worst movies I’ve ever seen. They also made it like 10 years too late to even have people interested.
- Happy Birthday to Me is such a dumb movie that could’ve been cool, I’d love to see a remake of that that’s given to a more psychological writer.
- Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Not really hard horror but would love to see that made for current audiences.
- Urban Legend. I hated it & would love to see a better version.
- Disturbing Behavior. That movie was ass and could’ve been a good horror movie.
- Stay Alive. The unrated cut is better but I’d love to see it large scale.
- Boogeyman! I just want it.
- Hell Fest. I wanted a hard rated R slasher but it was basically a Netflix movie.
That’s all I have for now! I love this video idea. I wish they’d remake movies that were bad & stop remaking ones that were acclaimed so highly and setting themselves up for critical failure. But money speaks sadly :(
Good topic. I'd agree that there are plenty of bad horror movies out there with good ideas that needs proper realization. Some of the ones I can think of are...
The Toybox - The 2018 film is one of the worst movies I've watched over the past decade, but the story of a possessed RV tormenting a family (with miserable consequences) is intriguing.
Cursed - It would've been fun to see Craven's original vision come to life. Surely it would've been better than what we got.
Stay Alive - I liked it, but I can think of several different ways they could've improved it. Especially with the status gaming have today.
Cabin Fever - Already remade, but it was marginally worse than the original. I'm sure there is a way to make a good movie out of the concept, but everything about this franchise have been terrible so far imo.
Cujo!! That movie terrified me as a kid and the novel did just the same.
An example of flipping the script on a Cujo remake could The original film, elude's to Cujo(the saint-bernard) becoming rabid after getting wounded by a rabbit it was chasing into a hole. (the book describes it more as a k9 type-possession/evil and or demonic force curtailed by the rabies "virus." Interestingly and ironically enough, the breed is a "[saint] bernard" in the context of saint's depicted in the religious narrative by the holy roman catholic church.
Flipping it might work well here. So say the mother/son contract the rabies virus while driving on a long road trip seeking help in an isolated town of religious fanatics who's leader, a saint-bernard owner, orders the very large and ferocious beast to keep them confined and guarded within their car as to not spread the virus or release it's demonic force (according to the leader) from infecting anyone else.
Love the concept of this video!
Man's Best Friend (1993) would be great to see what they could do with that
I want to see a remake of John Carpenter's 1987 Prince of Darkness. 😈
Great idea!
5:37
I am part of that cult following. I recently bought the Scream Factory Blu-ray of the Mangler.
7:45
Boo! Boo! BOO! I absolutely LOVE Lair of the White Worm. It's a masterpiece!
8:17
D'Ampton worm
Seriously, though, I don't mind remakes. Suspiria 2018 is a masterpiece compared to the original. The Ring was pretty good. I won't mention the others. I just want other works than rehashes. There are thousands of novels not being adapted that would probably be great movies! But studios are really bent on making certain there is cash to be had. The 70s and 80s were prime decades in which many great movies were being made and I don't think they cared solely about the money.
I recently watched Cube and loved it despite some slightly dated special effects and tonal issues which don't age that well. Escape room is kind of like it except Cube had a stark Nihilism that really worked for me.
There's an Asian remake of Cube! I'm not sure if it's already released or is a future project but I watched a teaser trailer a couple of months ago
Cube is a great shout-out!
Very cool! Hmm, maybe some of my childhood monster movies. Critters, Ghoulies… oh how about C.H.U.D.
I just watched "Seconds Apart" (2011) last night. It was so good! You should really give it a look.
I've just finished reading dune and can't really think about anything else right now. It's a book and it's not horror, but boy could it have been written better, extraordinary set up and world building with a desperate need of heavy editing.
'Needful Things' sounds like the second book of "the giver"
I would love to see a remake of the 2005 film "A Sound of Thunder," based on the Ray Bradbury short story. The Peter Hyams version had no budget for special effects, so the film looked more like a demo or rough cut. But the premise is terrific - "A single mistake in the past, by a time travel company in the future, has devastating and unforeseen consequences." The 2005 film is certainly watchable, but a newer version could be much better. I would nominate either Brad Anderson or Jonathan Glazer to direct.
I am a huge fan of The Mangler and actually wrote an entire article on The Mangler trilogy years ago. Also love Lair of the White Worm. It’s oddity is it’s charm in my opinion and I’m not sure re make would do it any good.
47 Meters Down's premise is an overlooked gem! I really think the film has the potential to be as great as Jaws if the film had better writing, endearing characters, and a tighter plot. A perfect example of this is its land counterpart, The Descent. Hence, if done right, a remake would be a godsend!
Honestly, I think Pumpkinhead would make for a great remake. A story where a group of teens that are responsible for a little kids death. And it’s then hunted down by a demonic personification of justice is really cool. And can definitely be a premise that can be taken seriously.
Brainscan & The Gate would be great to see remade.
I love BRAINSCAN! It was the first horror movie I ever watched and I was HOOKED
Lair of the White Worm is one of my fave horror-comedies. It would be surreal to see a version without Ken Russel's religious nightmare weirdness in it. I'd be curious to see it though.
Would love to see a remake of Night of the Comet! US remake of Train to Busan using the New Haven line to Grand Central New York!
We need a part 2 for this video
Night of the Comet (1984) needs a remake. Better special FX and updated for the 21st century would cement it as a classic (even though it's already a classic in mind).
Scanners could be an awesome remake, no cgi head explosions though.
The Beast Within would be a nice gore fest.
Event Horizon can be fun.
Maybe Chopping Mall.
Killer Klowns From Outer Space
Pet Sematary with Guillermo Del Toro.
And maybe They Live with some modern day touches.
Event Horizon, The Howling, Species, Inferno, The Sentinel
I would like a modern version of lady I’m white. Or sleepaway camp
Great commentary spooky A on a very touchy-feely subject! Keep it real like you are.
Thanks Gary ☺️
There are many films which needs a remake, I can remember few, that would be Scanners (1981), The Happening (2008), The Witch (2015), Annabelle (2014) and would love to watch my all time favourite Alien 1979 & Predator 1988 remake
You think The Witch needs to be remade?
predator was remade in 2010, as predators.
I think death race 2000 would be a cool idea if they remade it with a serious tone
I loathed the "remake" we got, given that it ditched just about everything the original was all about.
'Barbarella'. Well, I think it's pretty horrific!
Firestarter with Drew. Lots if Indonesian horror films that need English version. Also the wailing and brotherhood of the wolf need English versions
When a Stranger Calls
Already remade once, but not greatly. Stick with concept of stretching the OG's opening 20ish minute sequence, set in time before smart/mobile phones (70s - 90s)
Oh, and kill the kids again. Maybe the sitter too, for a different ending
I want to see a new take on American werewolf in London and until Max Landis got in trouble I thought I was gonna get one of the
I want to see a remake of "The Dark Secret of Harvest Home."
I haven't seen the film, but the novel it was based on was 😱
Great post, as usual, the evil dead remake was epic👍🏻
Great idea for a video. Remake / Reboot for The Burning and Madman,we need a slashers back. X.
I think they should do a Hellraiser remake, its one of my all time favourites. They done well with the graphics back in 1987, it would look amazing now.
My other pick would be Nosferatu, it's exactly 100 years old and is still one of the creepiest movies ive ever seen.
They are remaking hellraiser ! Right now!
Remake 'The Nightbreed' (1990).
Christine would be a good shout as a remake and have John Carpentar as a producer on it. Also the monster squad would be great one especially with the resources we have I'd love to see gulerimo del toro involved with it
If you wanna see an improvement on the Slenderman film, the closest thing you'll be able to find to that in the near future would be the third episode of The Morgue Files on UA-cam.
I wish they would’ve made a slender man film from a parents point of view as they try to protect their children.
Unpopular opinion: I've watched the new Wrong Turn twice, I enjoy it
I also enjoy the og Wrong Turns
Reminds me of Halloween 3 they just needed to not attach them to the series and made them stand alone films and I think people would've received it differently.
House of wax cuz I was really surprised how awesome it was
I'm not sure about a 'remake' necessarily, but with the concept that The Purge has its strange that the films have generally only covered a home invasion and 'escape the city' style subplots. Theres SO much potential that hasn't been untapped yet.
Whilst I love IT: Chapter 1 (haven't seen the miniseries yet) I think an IT limited series by Mike Flanagan would be perfect. He's already proven he can handle dual timelines exceptionally, he's mastered the 'hidden in the background' scares that made It (2017) so chilling, and I feel like he'd be able to tackle the novel's themes in a way which It (Chapter 2) never seemed to get to.
Truth or Dare/Would you Rather/Escape Room are all based on interesting concepts and (with the exception of Truth or Dare) are generally alright. However I feel like there's so much potentional to be genuinely scary/shocking movies, especially consider how tame and passable most of them are.
Krampus! Although I liked it on my first watch, I was actually kinda bored when I rewatched it the other day. The idea of a dark Santa Clause visiting an unwelcoming family is a great idea, but the film never fully goes there. It's a decent family friendly horror/comedy but a full horror Krampus would be super interest. I'm thinking more tension and focus on the practical monsters, such as that toybox... thing, and Krampus himself, would make for a great remake.
Sinister!!!! The first half of this film scared me more than any film (probably) ever. The tapes, the investigtion, the soundtrack, all perfect. The last half was such an annoying let down that I find it hard to rewatch the film past a certain point. I think Scott Derrickson is super talented, so maybe if he were to make a remake (or even a sequel) that cuts out creepy children completely, I might get that truly perfect Sinister movie. With that being said I still love Sinister for how brilliant that first is alone.
Salems lot,Exorcist,and Christine
The remake of "Wrong Turn" was a disaster. 1st off no one actually takes a wrong turn in the movie.
2nd. No Eliza Dushku!
would love to see a remake of Dead End (2003). on first watch the concept of this family stuck on this endless road terrified me, but the reveal (no spoilers) at the end just cheapens the whole thing. remake it with a more ambiguous ending and without the cheesy humour and i'd be first in line to see it
Oh my goodness, I have a lot to say on this topic but I'll try to keep it to a few choices. First off, I got actual goosebumps thinking of a Mike Flanagan remake of Needful Things. I saw some correlation in Midnight Mass and I think he would do a fantastic job.
Another work from Stephen King that deserves a remake is Salem's Lot. It is one of my all-time favorites from King and it really deserves a full series. Flanagan could really do it justice.
I also think that someone could make a decent series out of Slenderman, with stories of sightings all over the world or something like that.
One horror classic that I would also love to see a remake for would be Wishmaster. The sequels that came from the first Wishmaster film were just silly - but it's one of my favorites of all time and it would be so much fun to see a modern retelling.
I'd love to see a remake of 30 Days of Night. Loved the graphic novel but the film was really disappointing and we haven't gotten a genuinely terrifying vampire flick in awhile.
You liked Wishmaster but not 30 Days of Night....I know it’s preference and all but LMAO
@@07foxmulder hahahaha, fair enough, I can take it. 😆 I did like 30 days of night, BUT compared to the graphic novel that it was based on, I thought it could’ve been a lot better!
@@Weirder_the_better Good point lol I’ve never read the graphic novels so it’s definitely easier for me to view as just a movie rather than an adaptation.
I would love a Flanagan redo of Needful Things.
Honestly I would love a remake at sinister 2 or something because the first one was so good imo but the second one flopped sooo hard (the kill tapes were still good) but just make a separate timeline. I feel like it's deserving of another chance because it had such potential as a franchise. Also bughuul could maybe do with a redesign rather than looking like a member of fleshgod apocalypse or something
The original needful things film (while certainly bot perfect) is one of the few films the gets small town New england right and max von seedau is fantastic as always. Id love to see IT get made and actually stick to the book no version so far has been actually good. A big budget remake of shadow over insmouth (dagon is fun but cmon) preferably directed by Robert eggars who i can see constructing that town perfectly on film.
How about some of the black n white classics that have been remade many times in the last 70 years, but never successfully. I think we're ready for dark, scary big-budget remakes of Hunchback of Notre Dame and Dr. Jekyll & Mister Hyde.
My Top 3
1. Graveyard Shift (1990)
2. Chopping Mall (1986)
3. Phantom Of The Opera (1925)
graveyard shift is a trip. brad dourif's monologue about the viet cong feeding pows to rats is great. i love it.
@@austindolan7182 I like Brad Dourif in the movie but I hated the fact he was killed off early and I did not care for the main characters.
@@colewarnerreviews5834 fair, but he's just john goodman in arachnophobia.
@@austindolan7182 it worked in that movie because there were I liked the main characters besides John Goodman. Graveyard Shift I didn’t like the main characters.
We need a remake of the remake. Wickerman with Crispin Glover instead of Nic Cage.
Wow why Crispin! I didn’t know you were a fan! He’s such an odd dude
I rather see old horror films from the 70's & 80's getting remade, specially Foreign Films (Non USA Films). My picks will be The Beyond (Aka) Seven Doors Of Death from 1981, The Southern Gothic supernatural & zombie film directed by Lucio Fulci & another Fulci film that will like to see remade is City Of The Living Dead (Aka) Gates Of Hell. Perhaps not really a horror film, Battle Royale which is a brutal violent Japanese film from 2000, The film drew controversy, and was banned or excluded from distribution in several countries, i will like Quentin Tarantino to be the director, but he is a fan of The Beyond & won't be surprise if he produce a remake the film, perhaps direct it himself. Horror Express from 1972, starring Christopher Lee, Peter Cushing, and Telly Savalas...Will like directors like Alexandre Aja, Robert Rodriguez or Pascal Laugier (Martyrs) attach to these films.
At first, I wasn’t on board for a The Lair of the White Worm remake due to nobody doing it like Ken Russell, but you really sold me! I love hearing people’s remake ideas because it’s basically them telling you what kind of movies they world make, ideas, or see in their heads. Interesting topic and movie choices.
