Bad:

 Conan the Barbarian (2011), 

Ugly:
 The Haunting (1999),

I wasn't even aware they remade CONAN !

I agree with the HAUNTING remake.  Whatta load.


More-
GOOD
Vincent Price's HOUSE OF WAX (1953) was an excellent remake of Lionel Atwill's MYSTERY IN THE WAX MUSEUM (1933).
INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS  (1978) was just as good as the 1956 version.

BAD
The OLD DARK HOUSE (1963) made a mockery of James Whales 1932 creepy classic.

UGLY
HOUSE OF WAX (2005) Dam. 2 words-Paris Hilton. UGH!

WHY?

Because they really don't get it. They are trying to make a buck pandering to BAD movie fans- dumb f**ks are just trying to make money on our thing.
Called lowest common denominator. Lookingup
They end up doing just the opposite-being reviled by the community they try to infiltrate.
We are not stupid people. We know bad from BAD.  Drink

The Good: KING KONG (1933)
The Bad:   KING KONG  (1976)
The Ugly:  KING KONG  (2005) Gorgeous film that is going down that road.  Isn't KONG a monster?  In the first film he grabs a girl out of her window and drops her in the street.

Damn you for mentioning it!!!!!! Wink

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
