Today I&#8217;m doing the top 3 that I liked as well as the originals. What remakes have you seen that are as good as the originals?<\/p>\n<p>3) Psycho (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0054215\/?ref_=nv_sr_1\">1960<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0155975\/?ref_=nv_sr_4\">1998<\/a>)- Usually I prefer to see what new angles a remake can bring to the story, but in this case I loved how completely faithful the remake was to the original. The changes were minor and the acting was a fantastic tribute to the original movie. Psycho will always be one of my favorite horror movies and I was truly impressed by the remake.<\/p>\n<p>2)\u00a0The Fly (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0051622\/?ref_=nv_sr_2\">1958<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0091064\/?ref_=nv_sr_1\">1986<\/a>) \u00a0&#8211; Both versions of the Fly were creepy, romantic and sad. I saw the remake before the original and it has always been one of my favorites. I wasn&#8217;t sure what to expect from the original, but I enjoyed it just as much. I can&#8217;t choose a favorite because both versions were great.<\/p>\n<p>1)\u00a0Halloween (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0077651\/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1\">1978<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0373883\/?ref_=fn_al_tt_2\">2007<\/a>) &#8211; Both versions are terrifying. When I&#8217;m in the mood to watch a movie that will leave me unsettled, either version works.<\/p>\n<p>Links courtesy of\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/\">IMDb<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"twitter-share-button\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share\" data-via=\"compbeastsblog\">Tweet<\/a><br \/>\n<script>!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=\/^http:\/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+':\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js';fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document, 'script', 'twitter-wjs');<\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few days ago, I listed the top 3 horror remakes that I liked better than the originals.
