TCM remake

nah, ive had several good ideas for horror movies myself and am currently writing them. there will always be fresh ideas around, they are just very rare, but they are there..... if you want, i can name some very good current horror movies....

28 days later...
irreversible
dog soldiers
....those are current flicks out there just waiting to be discovered by the masses and are sure to be horror classics 10 years from now.... some upcomming promising movies....

return of the living dead 4, 5
surely many more zombie movies since the success of 28 days later...
and keep an eye out for a movie callled 'rape me in return', thats the title of the movie im writing, and should it ever get made, you will see that innovation is still strong in horror movies.

yea i guess your right...

you know it would be more respectfull to this movie to leave it alone, Back when TCM first came out noone had ever even thought about things like this aside from the serial killers doing it, they pushed the limits to give you an original,realistic movie. Whoever says the first TCM was all about Gore and nothing psychological must not have been watching TCM2 or next generation the whole movie of TCM was pshycological the gore just happend to be a way for them to express the rawness of the film , its not a slasher movie its what you call a HORROR movie. And i ask you what can be done in this movie that hasnt already been done? this movie has been disected and inserted into many horror movies since its realese, As they say often imitated but NEVER duplicated

dont get me wrong ill still first in line to see it lol heh

The TCM remake was awesome and scary, movies are for entertainment, it was entertaining, you guys should stop complaining about it.

Nobody was. You waltzed in here and bumped a thread thats over 3 years old. You should stop doing that. And TCM remake sucked.

I thought it was decent at best. As a TCM sequel, I would've thought more of it. But since they had to call it a remake, we have no choice but to compare it to the original, making this look like crap.

And the prequel of the remake looks like it'll be the same exact thing.

I thought the remake was awesome, what's wrong with it?

Backfire is a movie writer?

backfire is many things...

How was i supposed to know that this forum is old, I just don't see the point of making a thread to make fun of a new movie, it seems like all you horror fans just won't accept change into the horror universe. I'm probably just saying this because Leatherface is my favorite slasher and I loved the remake, I just hate to see people make fun of it when they haven't even seen it yet.

Well, first, there's a difference between making fun of something and criticizing something.

Second, I believe we've all seen it.

Uh-oh!

Yeah probably by now, but not at the time you critisizing it.

why can't we? We were upset that because hollywood was running out of ideas, they decided to take a classic movie, a brilliant piece of work that redefined what people thought of movies, and turned it into just another slasher. its like if someone decided to repaint Rembrandt or Picasso portraits, they're not doing anything fresh, they're not doing anthing worthwhile, they're just making a weaker version of something thats been done already, but 1000 times better

I like tabby's comparison to repainting portraits. Would you allow the "repaints" in art galleries? I wouldn't.

And as far as criticizing the movie before it comes out, that's part of what you do in a movie discussion board. You take the information you have and draw conclusions from there. We see photos from the TCM remake and say, "I don't like how they actually have to show him being stabbed in the back with a meathook to try to be scary." That's what the discussion should be about up to the point of its release, where everyone then discusses their opinions after seeing the movie.

It'd be pointless to have discussion if everyone sat around going "I love this!" "I love this too!" "Wow so do I!" "This is amazing!" "What a great idea!"

We'd pollute the earth with Smug like they did in southpark
