"Why do you need to remake a movie that already did its job really well"

Couldn't agree more. Stop with the remakes Hollywood, and start thinking original instead.

[VirgoSky81]

I agree with Gunnar, why would you feel the need to remake a movie that was already done perfectly in the first place? God I hate remakes!

@cmsasuke17 Oh i don't know, I quite like the 70's "body snatchers". There have been like, four of those so far. And with the exception of the first, they were all meant as remakes.

[Gabe080988]

@Reboothis that's not necessarily true. There's plenty of great filmmakers who've done remakes. John Carpenter for one.

[cmsasuke17]

See now I don't have a problem with the remakes IF they were ever to be done right but they never seem to have yet. I mean if your gonna remake a classic don't recycle the same thing that's been done like instead of remaking the original why not show some thing thats like a preque,l maybe show more history about Tomas huet before he goes killing people and before he wears a mask. Something like that would've been good NOT having the same thing the original did!

"Why do you need to remake a movie that already did its job really well?"

Moneh-Moneh-Moneh... MONEY!

[Reboothis]

Remakers just want the income and credits of an Big box office original piece of art.

Directors, who do remakes, are usually bad filmmakers.

[Salieri1760]

Is this a special feature on a DVD or something or was this on tv

If this is on a DVD someone tell me what it's called or where to get it

[LemmyDecaution]

All respect to Gunnar Hansen: - "Have you ever seen this movie?"

I don't think the casting director of the remake did.

[AprilM5866]

How sad is it that they took the house and put it somewhere else and NEVER made reference to the fact that it was THE house from the movie?I agree with tobe I wouldve made it a barbecue resteraunt and made a big deal out of where the house came from

[DimebagsZombie]

The chainsaw series was cool and all, but what I want to know is why the hell Clive Barker doesn't have an episode... I mean come on, Hellraiser was fucked up.

@SLX10 Today's filmmakers JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND that they get paid or they're supposed get paid to MAKE films-NOT RE-MAKE films!
