Another pretty good remake is Paul Schrader's "Cat People" w. Nasty Kinky amd Malcolm McDowell.

Not of course a remake of the great Val Lewton/Jaques Tourneur classic -- that's one of the greats -- but nevertheless a well made and well acted movie, both sexy and entertaining. McDowell was especially fine. One of my fave shots is that long sequence when he comes into the house late, and goes up the stairs to his sister's bedroom. The camera work was superb in that shot.

Truths learned by watching the newer Cat People: 1) ol' Nasty is a gorgeous babe, and 2) nobody wears underwear in the movie.

Well, it depends upon what you consider a classic. Are you talking about. Do you consider classic to be 1920's-1930's ? Or do you consider 1940"s-1950's or 1960's-1970's ? For example, i think the remake of Night of the living dead wasn't all that good. The 1967 verson was better, I think. It wasn't bad, when the colorized verson of the 1967 one came out. Another example, is Psycho... I much preferd the original one, myself. Another example is phantom of the opera, the 1920's verson. Although this was a silent movie, It had its scary moments, for that era. I just didn't care for the remake of this one either. Still yet another one is Halloween... I didn't think the remake was all too scary, either. However, that is my opnion, only.
