8 Classic Horror Films That Hollywood Might As Well Remake

With the Poltergeist remake now in theatres and the recent announcement of a remake of The Craft, it begs the question: are there any classic or cult horror films that have not been remade or are not now in the pipeline for a remake?

The Exorcist

The Exorcist is a seminal work of horror, widely considered one of the greatest horror films ever made. So, how has Hollywood failed to remake this one?

Rumors have swirled about committing an atrocity against cinema and trying to redo William Friedkin’s brilliantly humorless horror movie about demon possession and strained Catholicism, but as yet no one has truly dedicated themselves to the attempt. They’ve already remade The Omen and Psycho almost shot-for-shot, so The Exorcist remake would hardly be surprising.

A little girl possessed by Satan (or perhaps one of his lesser demons), a young priest experiencing a crisis of faith, and an old one who makes Catholicism look totally badass? Seriously, Hollywood, you need to get onto this one again.
