Day 6: What would your reimagining of a spooky classic movie be?

Not an adaptation of the ones we all know and love, but a reinterpretation using the basic elements from your favorite movie... with a twist! πŸŽ¬πŸ€”πŸ–‹

I'm looking forward to this one!
Spoilers ahead
Just FYI

This might be the newest film among my suggestions. I really loved Hugh Grant in Heretic but thought the reveal was really rather uninteresting and unoriginal. If you’re going to make a trite point, go ahead and lean into the silliness. That movie would have been 1000x better if he’d actually had some demonic looking alien in his labyrinth instead of just a bunch of abused women.
 
Day 7: A spooky television show or movie you re-watch every year.

I'm not sure I have any spooky movie or show I watch every single year...but generally speaking I'll try to find some of the old Haunted History shows from the travel channel on YouTube. Before the ghost hunting bro shows took over. No offense if you enjoy those shows, I just find them at once annoying and boring. I'd rather hear a narrator tell obviously fake stories and urban legends set to reenactments 😁 here's one I have pulled up in my YouTube history to watch this weekend.

This. The build up was good. But then the ending.. finding out the villain. I laughed in the theater. It was soo ridiculous. I would re-imagined the ending and the villain.

(Not really a classic though. πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ)

Peter Pan. There is a line from the original book: β€œThe boys on the island vary, of course, in numbers, according as they get killed and so on; and when they seem to be growing up, which is against the rules, Peter thins them out; but at this time there were six of them, counting the twins as two.”

Peter thins them out. That line, a throw away that is never referenced again, has stuck with me for decades, Peter is pretty fucking scary to begin with, so a story from the stand point of a Lost Boy who is suddenly being hunted down would make an outstanding horror film. Maybe escape from Neverland, and having Pan stalking him when he feels he is safe.

They made a movie called Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare this year. I haven't seen it and reviews are trash but it exists lol

Yes, it’s part of the Pooniverse. I love saying Pooniverse. Peter, Popeye, Winnie, Steamboat Willy, Bambi, etc. all are in the public domain, all are being turned into horror movies in, that’s right, the Pooniverse. 🀣
