If he does, than the remake will be better or on par with the original movie (ex: My Bloody Valentine, Amityville Horror, ect).
But when a director takes such an iconic horror film and turns it into dog shit, you are essentially spitting in the faces of devoted horror fans. If you take the time with the movie and you develop your script, you can make a good remake.

âThe Fright Night remake is a film which taps into the audienceâs deepest rooted fears, such as those of vampires throwing motorcycles at them. I dread the thought of a vampire throwing a refrigerator or a deskjet printer or... Iâd better stop before I give myself nightmaresâ
