I remember "Quarantine" /the americanized version of the amazing Spanish horror [REC]/ which was a shot-by-shot remake. They added NOTHING, but just re-shot it with different actors. <br /><br />Oh, and it's Nebular, not Nedular :)George Beremov [Nebular]https://www.blogger.com/profile/15136154142341512854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8902350714271321235.post-57451313614413679822010-06-02T07:02:16.941-07:002010-06-02T07:02:16.941-07:00Nedular, you are so right.

This will save them from having to actually write a good story.Maurice Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15338165486757095191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8902350714271321235.post-20836283582186553142010-06-01T07:56:01.425-07:002010-06-01T07:56:01.425-07:00Remakes are often unnecessary, as you know, dear A...Remakes are often unnecessary, as you know, dear Alex, but they're also mostly successful in making money at the box office, due to fans' nostalgia :)George Beremov [Nebular]https://www.blogger.com/profile/15136154142341512854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8902350714271321235.post-88998595694830648932010-06-01T07:40:23.961-07:002010-06-01T07:40:23.961-07:00This was a move that didn't need a remake, as ...This was a move that didn't need a remake, as the original is still quite powerful.

I'm not afraid of death, hunger, pain, poverty ... but Freddy is a real nightmare, especially since he lurks and attacks in your dreams, which are supposed to be your safe haven :((DEZMONDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14127166104359407763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8902350714271321235.post-23800357873026611542010-06-01T07:09:58.525-07:002010-06-01T07:09:58.525-07:00Well, I've seen worse - "Prom Night"...Well, I've seen worse - "Prom Night" for example, but you are right, it was totally pointless remake. Not sure if it ruined Craven's original, because 1984 "Nightmare" was so great, it will be remembered for ages, and this remake will be completely forgotten after a couple of months.George Beremov [Nebular]https://www.blogger.com/profile/15136154142341512854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8902350714271321235.post-20803052867643361612010-06-01T07:00:47.664-07:002010-06-01T07:00:47.664-07:00This was the worst remake ever.

It was completely pointless remaking it and ruined Wes Craven's story.Jaccstevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08268227476649183171noreply@blogger.com
