10 Most Insulting Movie Remakes Of All Time

10. Psycho (1998)

Who on earth thought it was a good idea to remake one of the best movies ever made? Gus Van Sant of course. He also thought he was on par with one of the greatest directors to have ever graced the cinema world, the legendary Alfred Hitchock.

The movie, which starred funnyman, Vince Vaughn, as the not so funny Norman Bates, was a disaster from start to finish. Even worse, it made just half of the $60 million dollar budget. In other words, it failed.

However, the strangest thing of all was Gus Van Sant's determination to shoot the movie shot for shot in exactly the same way as the original. Surely this is some kind of plagiarism? If not, it is pointless.

As you would expect, a remake shot exactly the same as the original didn't work, mostly because it had already been done in 1960 and was much better.
