DO NOT REMAKE SUSPIRIA!!!!

I am not a movie maker, but I like many of you am a movie lover. I will give any movie a chance-no matter how bad the reviews are...my tastes are quite eclectic, so one mans' trash might be an awesome movie night for me! (The St. Francisville experiment for example) I love to watch even bad rated Z movies cuz sometimes they are hella funny, but there are some things that shouldn't be touched..I mean remaking a movie to me is like saying "I don't think this director did a good enough job and I can do better.." What a slap in the face!!
here are my recommends for movies that should never be remade:

Suspiria
Gone With the Wind
Shogun
Exorcist
Poltergeist
Princess Bride
any Monty Python Movie
City of Lost Children
The Shining

There are more but these are sacred.

best way to remake a classic:

give the original script to a new twentysomething director and tell them never ever watch the original. 100% fresh approach. maybe! lol
