@DomBrownyo 3 года назад

Funny you say that, all artists copy and borrow and rehash. Esp so for Tarantino. Studying him at uni we saw how his passion for movies meant he watced EVERYTHING that came out, remembered loads and loads of the good bits and the style and techniques from constant watching and rewatching past movies. SO If you were to analyse his movies you could say they are all remakes in a way as they are all pastiches of earlier films, just....hes juxtaposed what he thinks are great pieces toether from all these different movies hes seen and enjoyed.

@bodyrot2794 3 года назад

Dom Brownyo I agree completely with everything you commented on. Tarantino openly states he take parts from his favorite films and applies them to his. I love it he makes it work great. Borrowing and paying homage to your favorite films or directors is one thing and great in my opinion. Remaking a Tarantino film like Rob Zombie remade Halloween for example, wouldn’t work at all in my opinion.

JP I do, but for different reasons to Cronenberg’s remake. I particularly enjoy how the original shows a cautionary tale of meddling with things we humans shouldn’t be meddling with in its way and how Cronenberg picked up on that and then took it down his body-horror style path with balls to the wall awesome make up effects. I regard both as great standalone films. Why do you ask?

I think the Evil Dead remake is hands down one of the best remakes ever, just taking away that camp element and making the tone dark just made it special!

I actually really enjoyed the concept of Thirteen Ghosts :) The movie is a bit of a bore as it focuses on characters I couldn't care less about (That's a bit of a lie I'll love Mattew Lillard in anything he does) but I think a remake of the movie could work if the ghosts were more touched upon. And of course, a smaller more interesting cast to accompany them.

@LittleWhiteRabbitB 4 года назад

I enjoy it for what it is. It goes along with Ghost Ship pretty well, haha they were products of their time, but I think they still looked better than a lot of other horror that came out in the early 2000's. I think a remake could be cool, considering all the lore there is for the ghosts, which can be viewed in the special features of the dvd.

I personally don’t discount remakes. If its a remake, I may like it more then the original. Also when I started watching horror I started with a lot of remakes, which I didn’t know at the time. But some of the remakes I like are: When a Stranger Calls, The Uninvited, Shutter and The Ring. I like these remakes for a lot of reasons, but I want to talk about the Uninvited and Shutter. I watched the remakes first because I didn’t know they were remakes. I had recently watched the originals and they are good. But the remakes make it more accessible for English speaking audiences, and in my opinion, are better plots. The plots are so strong in the remakes.

Lucy has a really strong opinion about remakes and she wants to be heard lol

@sheaedwards 4 года назад

I see there as being three categories: Reimaginings, and Remakes, and Remasters, which kind of applies to games too. A reimagining is just an adaptation. It takes a concept, maybe some characters, even if not directly by name, and makes it it's own, for example, Carpenter's The Thing, Cronenberg's The Fly, or the game Silent Hill: Shattered Memories. A remake is the same story recreated from the ground up that often has some new/additional content, for example the Halloween remake, or the Resident Evil remake. Then, a remaster is pretty much nothing more than a visual overhaul, either at a higher resolution, in color, or for a game with better models and textures, pretty much just a shot-for-shot update with almost no new elements, such as Psycho '98, Final Fantasy 8 Remastered, or Quarantine. Most remakes aren't really remakes, and the good ones, for the most part, are reimaginings.

I commented on one of Bart Mixon’s (makeup artist for y’all who maybe don’t know him) posts about the Nightmare on Elm Street remake and how it just isn’t one of my favorites, and his reply was literally “I’ve seldom seen a director who was less interested in what was happening in front of the cameras” sooo that should tell you what you need to know about that movie 😂

@rouenation 4 года назад

BTW it was great seeing y'all in the *Double Toasted* interview. A lot of people may have liked the Friday The 13th remake because of the Supernatural connection. The Nightmare on Elm Street movie really would have been better if they had gone for the rumored plot of Freddy being innocence all along and the teens were the the bad guys because they lied about what he did. Invasion of the Body Snatchers is a great example when it comes to remakes because you have the black and white one, then the 70's paranoia one (There was a proposed sequel to the 70's version with at some great concept art by Bernie Wrightson where they were going to use Agent Orange to kill the pod people) then the 90's Bodysnatchers which was more action based and the 2000's Invasion which was more of a pandemic feel. I think Fright Night does a good job of remaking the original for a new generation. As usual a thought provoking discussion. B~)

Other than The Thing, Invasion of the body snatchers (1978) is my favorite remake, the ending is amazing and scary, keep up the great work James and Chelsea and stay safe, love these research podcasts:) also the Carrie 2013 I heard there's a extended cut with more violence and closer to the book.

I really think that as long as the people behind remakes and reboots do other original work its fine, you'll always have the original to view so not like the movie could do any harm. But with these nonstop remakes and sequels going on I think that they should have to fill a quota of 2 original movies and 1 Remake/Sequels to main Blockbusters

Since you guys are busy running a business, I'm guessing you're a master of quick makeup routines.

@coltonestes3972 3 года назад

The first Zombie remake was fantastic(except for the rape scene in the Director’s Cut). But I love seeing how Michael became a product of his environment as well as his own mental stability. Is it as MYSTIFYING as a six year old just killing? Of course not. But would you rather see a film completely follow the exact same steps as the original? The Zombie remake actually takes a remake in a different direction and also features the second-best mask in the whole series.

I'm sorry but I really like the remake of 13 Ghosts. It's not a great horror film but it is in my opinion a fun one. If anything, I love it for the set design (which if you watch the behind the scenes was hell to shoot since all that glass was reflective) and the ghosts where almost entirely practical make up. It's also a more fun film to watch when you watch the DVD special features (though it's on youtube now) that actually gives a full fledged backstory to all the ghosts. I respectfully disagree and say that it's a good (not great) film and at the very least a fun visual film.

When my wife and I were dating, she got me to rent and watch The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake, probably like a year after it came out. And it was the movie that really pushed me head first into loving the horror genre. Years later I finally saw the original, and yeah the original is just superior and on another level as a film, but the remake has a special place for me. I also love the Friday the 13th Remake, it's not the best Friday movie but its the one I can probably rewatch the most. For the same reasons James said on the pod, it essentially takes all the core elements you associate with the franchise from Parts 1-4 and condenses it into one movie. You care about the brother/sister characters and Jason is just this smart, fast, brutal hunter that is actually pretty scary. Also, I really enjoyed all the history of how and why remakes have been made in Hollywood for so long. Fantastic episode as always!

@madeofmeats 4 года назад

I really love the remakes for Child’s Play, Friday the 13th, Suspiria, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Halloween, and Invisible Man. I also love the originals, but the remakes are just different enough to where I don’t have to compare the two and am able to love them equally (Edit) I loved TCM (2003) and TCM:TB because they both show similar themes and story beats, but ultimately diverge enough to be their own thing. I liked their attempt at a new family and Leatherface, Thomas and Bubba are both different entities which leave room for me to love them both. Thomas is a beast of prey and is fueled by anger, and Bubba is a scared but fiercely loyal character fueled by the obligation to take care of his family. I feel it’s unfair to compare the two. Now onto why I loved the Friday the 13th remake. I love it for the exact opposite reason why I loved TCM 2003, Jason feels the same. It feels like a classic FT13 sequel, which is why I can get behind it. I’m glad they didn’t try to reinvent or make an alternate version of Jason, otherwise it would have felt more like a rip off than anything else. And as you can tell from my profile picture (which is bagboy Jason from part 2), I love Jason as a character very much. I would go into my reasons for loving the others I listed, but this is long winded as is, so I’ll leave it at that lol

the thing stands head and shoulders over all the other horror movie remakes. there are other great ones but none of them even come close to that one. I think if we broaden it more to all genre's I think that Heat, 12 angry men, Cape Fear, the wuzard of oz, Oceans Eleven, and the departed are also on the same level in terms of elevating good to mediocre movies to 10/10 status all time great films

One of my favorite remakes is "And Then There Were None. " I am a huge fan of mysteries and I love the Agatha Christie novels. I had initially watched the 1945 film adaptation and the ending was different than the novel which I absolutely loved since it was unexpected for me. There is a 1974 film "And Then There Were None" that I have never seen, but the remake that I loved and thought was a excellent re-telling is the 2015 mini-series that since it was a mini-series they showed flashbacks and delved more in depth of each character. It's more aligned with the original novel ending wise. It's still set in the same era as the novel. I honestly would love to see a modern re-telling of this story instead of another re-make being set in the 1930's.
