10 80s Horror Remakes That Actually Should Happen

7. The Stuff (1985)

The Stuff TV ad This is the one about the white junk food that turns you into a zombie before killing you and leaking out of the victims. Given that every year there appears to be a food scare and general concern about fast food, how come nobody has thought about remaking this? Especially when they could have the special chains of stuff themed restaurants, commercials and celebrity endorsements, pushing up the satire. This could be the nearest opportunity to have a remake of The Blob in places as well, for the scenes when the stuff moves on its own. As the victims would be leaking white goo instead of red, the makers might be able to get more past the censors.
