A Remake

Now that there has been a re-make of "Willard", I wonder if a re-make of the sequal will follow? I have yet to see Willard, but I would love to see Ben with a modern twist!

Willard the remake really didn't do too well in the theaters. Ben probably won't happen.

well they didn't actually show him die...it was all in silhouettes.

so there might be a new "ben" after all lol..

I was wondering that too.

The Willard remake sucked anyway. There's no need for all these remakes.

i am not a big fan of remakes at all, but for some reason i feel like a remake of this one could potentially be really good if done right. of course i would be pretty pissed if someone ruined it though.

I don't think a remake would be able to capture the magic this film had for me. To me, it is perfect in every way. They would just make it a straightforward horror film and remove the story about friendship which was what made this film so effective. This film captivates me in a way very few can. It is a beautiful, moving film and I don't think any remake could compare.

Come, fly the teeth of the wind. Share my wings.
