My source is the book Horror Movie Freak. Even if you don't agree with the book, I think these are good classifications for horror movie remakes. As for the Psycho remake, it was perhaps the worst horror movie remake in horror movie history.
while I agree the Psycho remake was pretty bad....The Fog re-whatever was terrible
