31 Days of Horror Remakes: The Longlist

This list was a lot easier to make than you'd expect. While we had to hunt down trailers for some of the movies on Wikipedia's list of horror movie remakes because somehow neither of us had ever heard of them (a rare thing - we're horror freaks, after all,) most triggered responses of "Good one," "That was fucking awful," or "BWAH HA HA HA. No." 

(If you wanna know which ones made us laugh ourselves silly, just ask. The world's shit, we'll take humour where we can find it.)

Here are the movies that made the first round of cuts. In some cases, there are at least two remakes of the same movie. If they have different names, I'll list them both.
