I think Hollywood is unfortunately stuck on remakes. Then again, most great movies are not big productions. There's this one movie I read about in Rue Morgue called Sars Wars from Thailand that I'm dying to see. Last time I looked through the horror section at our local best buy I noticed Fulci's a cat in the brain, yeah it's been around for a while, but now it's easily available. Die you zombie bastards (2005) is a personal favorite and it's quite recent.
I personally do not enjoy remakes. Even Dracula, I'll only watch the 1931 version. Every time I've decided to actually watch a remake, I was utterly disappointed. Dawn of the Dead might have been the one exception, I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it either. It just feels like Hollywood is feeding horror fans reheated leftovers. Now if they remade Nekromantik, I might actually want to see it, but it's not like mainstream hollywood would ever go there.
Something fresh and new would be nice, but I doubt it'll happen anytime soon, those remakes apparently are making money or they wouldn't keep making them.
