#DORK 19: Horror Movie Remakes

Ridiculous List of Horror Movie Remakes

It really is comical how many horror movies have been remade in the last 10-15 years. There are so few original ideas out there. Movies that came out 20 somethin years ago are still being remade or "re-imagined" as those involved like to say. I'm not dumping on all of these movies, cause I have enjoyed some, but still this is a bit much. ALL of these movies listed below have been re-done. (Not a complete list)

• Halloween


• Halloween II


• Friday the 13th


• A Nightmare on Elm Street


• Black Christmas


• When a Stranger Calls


• The Hills Have Eyes


• The Hills Have Eyes II


• Psycho


• The Thing (twice)


• The Fly


• House on Haunted Hill


• Dawn of the Dead


• Cape Fear


• House of Wax


• The Hitcher


• Dracula


• Frankenstein


• The Wolfman


• Prom Night


• The Omen


• I Spit on Your Grave


• The Wicker Man


• It's Alive


• The Last House on the Left


• Red Dragon (was Manhunter)


• My Bloody Valentine


• Night of the Living Dead


• Piranha


• One Missed Call


• Quarantine (was REC)


• The Ring (was Ringu)


• The Ring 2 (was Ringu 2)


• Sorority Row (was The House on Sorority Row)


• The Amityville Horror


• The Crazies


• The Eye


• The Fog


• The Grudge


• The Haunting


• The Stepfather


• The Texas Chainsaw Massacre


• The Uninvited (was The Tale of Two Sisters)

There are many more, but these are the most popular. So remember young fans of Horror, when you're watching a movie, ask yourself, "Is this the original?" Chances are, the answer is no.
