Agree!

Last post by zombie no.one - Today at 09:10:18 AMYeah these kind of lists always get a bit messy, when trying to pidgeonhole stuff... nothing is at stake here so it's fine to leave some of this stuff in limbo I guess.

Last post by M.10rda - Today at 08:57:49 AMHELLRAISER '22 isn't a remake. The stories are completely distinct with different human characters and some different cenobites. (A new performer plays Pinhead.) It's just another HELLRAISER movie branded as a reboot.
THE THING '11 has its moments, but a lot of those moments are based on moments from Carpenter's THING, but then at the end it reveals itself to be a prequel. That doesn't make much sense (and nothing about the film's design says 1981) so I'd call it a (subpar) hybrid remake/prequel.
TOWN THAT DREADED SUNDOWN is, iirc, quite "meta" as AI indicated. It takes place in the 21st century (instead of the 1940s or 1976) and acknowledges that the events in the previous movie really happened (which, if I am not mistaken, they actually did, historically speaking), and I think the '76 movie is also A Movie in the diegetic reality of the '14 movie. So that seems like a reboot or sequel to me and not a remake, but you split those hairs as you please!

Last post by Alex - Today at 04:56:25 AMTo be honest I didn't look any further into it than laughing at people believing in AI that much. I can't tell you if any historians agree or disagree with it.
