Remakes You Like More Than The Originals

[🪦 knewby ●]

Remakes are always a hot topic. Most people hate 'em with a passion. I tend to keep an open mind and actually prefer some over their originals.1. Dawn of the Dead- I know I'm gonna take heat over this one but the remake just does it better for me. The original, while a classic, just doesn't hold up over time. The original was Hokey and stupid at times, the remake grabs you by the throat and never lets up.2. King Kong 1976- Another often hated, despised remake. I saw this at an impressionable 7 years old on the big screen and was totally and completely enthralled. Vastly underrated IMO, this Kong was moving and fun.3. The Thing 1982- Carpenter's masterpiece bests the original in every conceivable way.Lets hear yours........................Larry

I'm not saying the originals were bad at all, I just happen to enjoy these new ones a bit more...

Its cool...lol. I just consider the original TCM one of the top 5 greatest horror films ever made. I enjoyed the Hitcher remake, but thought it paled in comparison to the creepy original............................Larry

Dawn Of the Dead, The Thing, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Friday The 13th (Original was crap I don't care what anyone says), Amityville horror I liked but I thought the remake was creepier.

For me its also Dawn Of The Dead, that remake was awesome. And Friday The 13th remake for me is wayyyyy better than the original.

I'm gonna have to break the chain and say the remake of Dawn was crap. Totally missed the point of the original. Also, zombies don't run.As far as remakes I like better, I really only like the Thing.
