Official Noes Remake Review Thread!

[🪦 DarklyScanner ●]

Who honestly cares if the younger generation doesn't know about about that Michael or Jason? I know I don't. I'd say it's more annoying to discuss the originals now because any time you bring up Halloween, F13 or Nightmare on Elm Street, you have to clarify you're talking about the original. And then half the time, the person who asked you which one you meant hasn't even seen the original. I don't think remakes have helped the originals in any way. They are already considered classics among film critics, not just horror fans, but the larger film community. That says a lot about the quality of certain classic horror films. Are any of the remakes of those classics going to be considered in that same category? Of course not. I'd say remakes are actually bad introductions to the original films because 99% of them are done horribly. And since the younger generation doesn't know a good film from a bad one, they're going to automatically prefer the way the remake did something just because it's modern.This generation needs to have its own bogeyman instead of copying the last generation's. That's what the genre is really lacking. No matter who we get to replace Freddy, Michael or Jason, it's never going to be better... and isn't that the point of making movies? To do something better that hasn't been done before? At least Europe's trying their hand at it, and even if I don't like them much, I give them more credit than most American horror directors right now.
