IMO Children of the Corn (1984) should be remade because the concept is great but the movie itself is terrible. I assumed it was some sort of horror classic because it's so well-known and has an iconic poster, but then I actually watched it and, yeesh. feels like a bad TV movie

what are some other movies that deserve a remake because they have a good concept but bad execution?

    spooky mansion

    Check out the japanese movie Sweet Home, it had a game too on the famicom. Resident Evil was heavily inspired by that movie and game.

          You should also see the unrelated American film, House (1985)

          It's a weird, almost slapstick horror movie where the villain of the piece is literally

          The Vietnam War
