Generally, I enjoy remakes, although most times they don’t stand up to the originals. Sometimes, though, a remake surpasses the original. These three remakes, in my opinion, are better than the originals. What remakes do you prefer to the originals?<\/p>\n
3) Night of the Living Dead<\/a> (1990) – I loved both versions of this movie, but Patricia Tallman’s Barbara was the tiebreaker for me. She was part of the action instead of a damsel in distress.<\/p>\n 2) Ghostbusters<\/a> (2016) – I was not a fan of the original, but I loved the female cast remake of Ghostbusters. The humor all around was great and these women, unlike a lot of female movie characters, were actually relatable. Chris Hemsworth as the secretary also added some hilarious moments.<\/p>\n 1) The Shining<\/a> (1997)- I liked the original, but the remake surpassed it. As a miniseries, it was able to go deeper with plot and character development. Both movies had a strong cast, but I preferred Steven Weber’s version of Jack. I also preferred the ending of the miniseries to that of the original movie.<\/p>\n Coming soon: Top 3 Horror Remakes that are as Good as the Originals.<\/p>\n Links courtesy of\u00a0IMDb<\/a>.<\/p>\n
