I see.

I have nothing against remakes - some of the best horror movies have taken an existing premise and "re-imagined" it, right? The Thing, The Fly, numerous Frankenstein monster movies...etc...

I just hope that RZ gets the humour of this movie. In my opinion, that is what the most recent wave of horror movies have failed to capture - the humour. Remember Re-Animator? Damn!

Who remade Re-Animator?


And Dead Heat was great. The part where Treat Williams gets "attacked" by liver was just like one of those scenes from Police Squad! where someone threw a wig at Leslie Neilson and he clutched it to his face and screamed.

Sorry, poorly worded on my part - Re-Animator has yet to be remade. I just meant that I miss the black humour that a lot of 80s horror flicks had. Another one I love is Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, where Leatherface is more of a goofy, horny weirdo than a menacing killing machine.
