Favorite Remakes?

Horror Quote Of The Moment

Welcome to Under The Morgue.

We have sections for each decade of film, from the 1910s onward, as well as sections for 10+ major franchises, close to 50 'smaller' franchises (containing five entries or less), creative writing, independent filmmaking, photography, music, Non-Horror films and TV shows, forum games, and boredom busters, and to top it all off there's an IM shoutbox at the bottom of the page for random chat. From the tame and 'kid sister friendly' to the psychological and mindbending to cheesy splatter flicks to hardcore torture-oriented horror, there's something here for everyone, so why not dive in?

But one I really like that I feel is underrated is the 2010 remake of The Wolfman. Particularly the Unrated DVD cut (which is the only version I've seen all the way through). That movie is like, my quintessential monster movie. Classic movie beast, the gore and werewolf action is really brutal, the atmosphere perfectly captures the feel of the classic Universal horror stuff, loved Benicio del Toro in the role and Hugo Weaving. And the movie had a real good sense of fun about it. That asylum sequence is absolutely great. It feels like the perfect update of the original movie to me. Capturing the charm and spirit, but making scary for a new generation. Love it.

I've noticed that on a few sites.

I keep forgetting Stoker is a remake. You know I love that movie so I should probably track down the original.

If you do, rewatch Stoker before watching the original. It's more fun in that order.
