THE FLY is a good idea for a movie, but it's a limited idea. That's why the sequels (RETURN OF THE FLY, CURSE OF THE FLY and THE FLY II) all suck.
As for another remake, the two existing versions pretty much milked the concept dry. There's nothing left.
I love the Cronenberg film, but the original film is still worth watching - a bit slow here and there but pretty sincere, with some great images.
