I for one find the 1958 Blob much better than the remake. It was easier to watch without covering my eyes or fast forwarding so much, and the Blob looked more like a blob, instead of look like a living piece of flesh with tentacles. Not to mention, it did not make the Blob look like such a messy eater.

Props for putting The Thing at #1 instead of something more mainstream and popular. It's one of the most frightening movies there is.

The third act honestly ruined it for me, what with being buried alive healing you entire body both from injuries and demonic possession, the idea of a single terminal defibrillator that also acts as an adrenaline shot. The girl then suddenly becoming so OP she was able to rip her hand off from being stuck under a vehicle and over slippery mud, and Bruce Campbell's pathetic cameo (seriously, he deserved WAY better) was a hard no for me.

Great list! I forgot Scent of a Woman and Three Men and a Baby were remakes of foreign(?) flicks. (I, also, from video did NOT know True Lies was a remake (foreign flick too). Little Shop of Horrors! Great call. You reminded me of a little seen (it sure seems) musical remake of Reefer Madness. If you haven't seen it check it out. It does a great job of spoofing all the inaccuracies of the original's propaganda scare against marijuana use. All said. Gotta mention you didn't have The Fly, The Thing or King Kong (2005) on your list. C'mon. Just keeping it real but do you 'just to be different' much? And you didn't put Wizard of Oz, Maltese Falcon (although I think Maltese is overrated) or--my own thought--The Mask of Zorro (1940, Tyrone Power Jr, Linda Darnell ... Is it worth mentioning Antonio Banderas, Catherine Zeta Jones version?) on the list. The original silent movie Zorro (1920) starred Douglass Fairbanks. I need to see Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (at number 2) again! You must be a Steve Martin fan ... but at least The Pink Panther remake is nowhere to be seen lol. I saw Del Toro's Nightmare Alley. Dark noir for sure. Another viewing necessary 👍

David Cronenberg's _The Fly_ (1986) is not only one of the greatest remakes ever, but it's one of the greatest films ever. Jeff Goldblum was absolutely 100% robbed of an Oscar nomination for Best Actor. It still stands as one of the worst Oscar snubs ever. Chris Walas deservedly won for Best Makeup, but that one was an absolute no-brainer.

You skipped Red Dragon, it's better than Manhunter in my opinion, a lot closer to the book (although not identical or the lead would run away like Sir Robin) Fistful of Dollars is great, has a really awesome prequel and a decent sequel too. Although I haven't seen the original movie it was a remake to, I did see its own remake Last Man Standing lol 😝 Good to hear praise for Peter Jackson's King Kong, a lot of people seem to hate it on Facebook, I still haven't seen the extended edition I like The Fly remake better than the original, same with True Grit. The Thing is great, but I haven't seen the original to determine if I like it better than the original, a lot of people seem to feel that way though I like Rob Zombie's Halloween remake more than I expected to. Also enjoy Texas Chainsaw Massacre, although the third and fourth film in the original run were really bad by comparison (now the second film in the original run was funny, so I like it, "Leatherface you ruined my Sonny Bono wig!!!")

YESSS!!!! I dont care what anyone says, "THE THING" from 1982 will always be the King of remakes in the 80s!!! Back in the time when making remakes wasnt really a "thing", John Carpenter set the bar high for future science-fiction horror and truly grotesque action scenes between the Monster against the crew. If you have never seen the movie, I would highly advise it and keep reminding yourself, "Wow, this was really made in 1982!!!" Which truly makes this horror classic, a CLASSIC FOR ALL TIME AND FUTURE GENERATIONS WHEN WE'LL BE DEAD!!! ❤

13 Ghosts & House on Haunted Hill are good remakes too-the originals were set made in 1959/60 and they were good and campy, but the women portrayed couldn’t put 2+2 together, the kids were the smart ones..fun fact: Fay Ray was supposed to be in the new King Kong and say the part Jack Black did but died before she could film her part!

The 2007 remake of "3:10 To Yuma" is one of my favorite movies, ever. Fascinating production as well (shot entirely in sequence, no traditional soundstage sets, they just built the buildings to shoot inside or used existing western movie towns. Though they did build their own town for the end of the movie)

Night Of The Living Dead (1990) is a remake at least worthy of honorable mention. Written by the director of the original, George Romero, and directed by the man who was supposed to be the makeup artist of the original, Tom Savini. It redeemed the worst character of the original, Barbara. Tony Todd was brilliant as the lead, Ben. To me, it's the perfect horror remake.
