This is one slasher I wouldn't mind being re-made

Same premise but different characters and 'legends' as ways to kill them off. This after the scream series is my favorite slasher. I think it is under rated. This, Scream, and IKWYDLS are the type of slasher movies I miss.

Yeah, plenty of potential there. But why smear it with the term "remake" right out of the gate? How about just a straight-up, honest ripoff?

Agreed. Scream, Urban Legend and IKWYDLS are the perfect types of slashers IMO - whodunnits, with good (enough) characters, nice kills and are just plain fun

I'd rather them go more serious if a remake happened. These urban legends are straight up scary. This... isn't

Absolutely -- the scarier the better! (This applies to all horror movies.)

That would be fun! This is my favorite slasher movie! I'd love to see it made with different legends this time. Maybe bring back some of the old characters. One could have gone crazy...

And being 2016, it'd be based off creepypasta instead of urban legends :p

Oooh, that would be scary! Flying Spaghetti Monster help us all!
