Not a film but Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons Watchmen definitely owes something to The Outer Limits episode entitled "The Architects of Fear".

The Orphanage (2007) rips off The Others (2001).


Erm...
How ?  :question:


I love both films but other than ghosts, they're totally different stories.

Anyway, I want to say Daybreakers has lots of ideas from Richard Matheson's I Am Legend. However, as none of the I Am Legend films do the book justice, I'm more than happy with Daybreakers taking the ideas and actually doing something intresting with them.

Solo rips off Robocop and Terminator.
                                             

If God exists, why did he make me an atheist? Thats His first mistake.
