The Team Behind ‘You’re Next’ And ‘The Guest’ To Remake ‘I Saw The Devil’

We know that no movie – especially no horror movie – is safe from the remake bug. If we didn’t know that, we certainly learned it with the Audition news. It’s no surprise, then, to hear that a remake of Kim Jee-Woon’s 2010 revenge thriller I Saw The Devil has been commissioned. There’s good news, though. It looks […]

‘Bang Bang’ Trailer: This ‘Knight and Day’ Bollywood Remake Looks Incredible

We don’t talk about Bollywood films as much as we probably should, but today I saw a trailer I could not resist posting here on UTG. There was a film a few years back starring Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz called Knight And Day. In the film, which critics and audiences did not care for, […]

So Now There’s This English-Language ‘Audition’ Remake

Because the English-language J-horror remakes won’t end until we run out of J-horror hits to remake – and likely not even then – we can now look forward to an Audition starring white people. As reported by Deadline, Mario Kassar is putting together an adaptation of the notorious 1997 novel (and not an adaptation of the unduplicable Takashi Miike adaptation). […]

The Upcoming ‘Maniac Cop’ Remake Has Script Writer

Most movie lovers have a soft spot for campy and cheesy horror films. Even though they were probably terrifying when they first hit theaters, nowadays some of the effects are almost comical. One horror film that has been a fan favorite for decades is Maniac Cop. It originally aired in 1988, and had two sequels. […]

Holy Sh!t: Key and Peele to Produce ‘Police Academy’ Remake

I never knew I wanted a Police Academy remake until now.

They have no contractual obligation to appear in the film […]

John Goodman To Collect From Mark Wahlberg In ‘Gambler’ Remake

I love John Goodman. Who doesn’t? From his years on television as the one and only Dan Connor, to his recent role in Inside Llewyn Davis, Goodman has proven to be a valuable addition to any cast. He does for drama and indie comedy what The Rock does for action or Bill Murray does for […]

No Joke: ‘The Fast and the Furious’ Director to Remake ‘Road House’

Since last year’s remake of Red Dawn was such a massive success, pulling in a whopping $44 million on a $65 million budget, it’s only natural that Hollywood producers will continue ravaging their VHS collections for fresh “ideas.” The latest ’80s classic to get thrown into the fire is Road House, which The Wrap reports […]

Director Hired for ‘Day of the Dead’ Remake

George Romero’s 1985 film Day Of The Day is one of the great underrated horror classics of all time, and for many years there has been talk of a modern remake being in the works throughout the often troublesome land of Hollywood. Nick Cannon starred in one remake not long ago, but given the limited […]

Holy Sh!t: The Remake Of Stephen King’s ‘It’ Will Be Two Films

If you love horror and don’t at least have a soft spot in your heart for Tim Curry’s turn as Pennywise the clown in It then you may need to spend more time revisiting genre classics. Curry set the bar so insanely high in terms of clown terror that essentially no other film featuring red-nosed […]
