Movies that you don't think could work as a remake?

[Bojangles]

I have pretty big issues with remakes to begin with. When the original movie was great, why mess with it. One movie I don't think could ever work as a remake is L'Age D'or. It's not exactly a horror movie, but it's so strange it'd probably be appealing to most horror fans. I was lucky enough to see it in a class back in college. It's a surrealist film by Luis Bunuel and Salvador Dali, from 1930.

I also agree that the exorcist would be a very bad choice for a remake. Part of the movie's impact and appeal was the cast, I'm not sure how anyone could ever top that.

I used to think Cannibal Holocaust was one movie that just could never be remade, but it looks like they are doing just that.

I doubt they will be able to come close with the remake of Cannibal Holocaust. Someone I know just recently watched it for the first time. She thought it was real at first and ended up getting sick as fuck
