    At the risk of self-promoting, all I can say is GOOD, and point folks to my thoughts on why a remake is a bad idea - and what should happen if it MUST be remade - here.

    best news i have heard in a while but it won't stop a lot of you folks on this here group supporting other remakes which as you know i personally can not take.

    do yourself a favor and boycott any and every remake that is ever made and support original non-remake tv and films.stop feeding hollywoods greed cause all who support remakes and pay will only cause more of them to be made.

    They better not remake it! A cult classic is a cult classic.

    @ Bill-Lee: it's so bad it's good, dude. Grow a sense of humor.

    @Burke: No, it was so bad it started bad and stayed bad. It's too maturely directed and competently produced to go full-circle from Bad to Good.

    //Mostly, it attracts theater people. Ugh. I _hate_ theater people.

    @t3knomanser: You're missing the point of the film, by the sound of it. It's the godchild of camp. It plays the bad movie-clichés, and shooting techniques deliberately and masterfully.

    One of my high school friends looked almost just like riff raff. He was shocked by the similarity when I showed him. It was awesome.

    MTV can go ahead and make a remake. I don't care. I have MTV blocked on my cable box so I won't accidentally watch it.

    There's no way this movie can be remade or rebooted or whatever. I mean. Tim Curry. Tim Curry!

    @GayRobotsRUS: He's the only guy that could pull off a line like: "Come on down to the lab/ and see what's on the.. slab..." and make it funny, slutty, sexual, and provocative all at once, all while wearing women's lingerie. :)

    I hope "a while" means "never"
    RHPS is a movie that does not need a remake or reboot.

    I happen to think that Repo! fills that role nicely.
