WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers I had to check before writing this article if these films were originally based on a book, but I think I may have been confusing them with The Haunting of Hill House which is something completely different. Obviously the main question of this article is which is better – …

To Remake or Not To Remake
Piranha 1978 vs 1995
WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers Here’s something funny and more specifically something I learned while writing this article and that is that I didn’t realise this remake even existed – only that it was remade in 2010 in 3D. On top of this, and a slightly more interesting fact, is that the original film …
Suspiria de Profundis
WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers So, you know how I’ve said before that I wasn’t doing anymore remake articles that were based on books? Well, I find it rather interesting that these films are actually based on an essay by Thomas De Quincey from 1845. Now, the 2018 remake is considered to be “inspired” …
Black Christmas 1974 vs 2006
WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers Originally, this article was supposed to be a 3 way comparison between the 1974 version, 2006 and 2019 remakes. However, and not through lack of trying, it has been impossible to find a copy of the 2019 film ANYWHERE! Anyway, back to the point and as we know from …
Road House 1989 vs 2024
WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers I’ll be completely honest with you, I had never seen the original Road House before writing this article but I still had reservations regarding Jake Gyllenhaal taking on the role. I’m just going to point out that this is a complete me-problem because I don’t rate him as much …
Speak No Evil 2022 vs 2024
WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers This is actually the first time in recent history that I will be covering a remake of a film where the original was only made two years ago prior! I had been meaning to watch the Danish original for a while but the remake gave me that push (Thank …
The Mystery of the Wax Museum
WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers Now, this article was supposed to comparing the 1953 and 2005 versions of House of Wax. However, I have since found out that the 1953 version isn’t actually the original film as there was The Mystery of the Wax Museum made back in the 1930s which the Vincent Price …
The Rise of Damien
WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers As promised a couple of months ago, my second The Omen article. I was genuinely concerned when writing this that it was going to turn out that these films were actually based on a book (one I would consider reading mind) making the article pointless. However, this wasn’t the …
The Eye 2002 vs 2008
WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers I mentioned in a previous article that I’d been waiting a while to watch the original of The Eye mainly because as all of you already know I love my foreign horror films, but also because I’ve been planning to write this article for a long time… Opening and …
Mother’s Day 1980 vs 2010
WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers I’ve mentioned this film previously in my A Mother’s Love article and believe I referenced the fact that more detail was incoming. Truthfully, when I saw the words ‘loosely based on’ I didn’t think this article was actually going to see that light of day but here it is! …
