11 Horror Movie Remakes Coming In 2017
1. Suspiria
Remakes are always risky, but remaking a film considered a classic is even more perilous, and such is the case with Dario Argento’s Suspiria. Hailed a horror classic and the one of the most influential giallo films of all time after its 1977 release, the announcement of a Suspiria remake predictably riled fans of the original and indeed Argento himself who has stated he’d prefer that the movie wasn’t remade.
Regardless, it’s going ahead with Italian filmmaker Luca Guadagnino (I Am Love, A Bigger Splash) confirmed as director and Dakota Johnson – most recently seen pretending to enjoy lame bondage in every bored housewife’s fantasy Fifty Shades of Grey – set to star as ballerina Suzy Bannion. She’ll be joined by Tilda Swinton as Madame Blanc and Chloe Grace Moretz in an as yet unnamed role.
But whether that cast and crew can bring anything new or worthwhile to what is considered a sacred classic remains to be seen.
