Well......wha?

 

[AverageMan]

1st one scarred me for life!!! Absolutely hate spiders, pretty sure it was this film that caused it! lol.
Would be in good hands with Wan - another case of 'is it needed' though?

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Cool, more spiders to scream, and more butter milk coming out of an electrocuted spider.

 

[lime]

I liked the original, it was good low budget film. I will keep an eye on this one.

 

[Reel-Man]

Why, just why?

 

[:eek:]

Why, just why?

Because they already rebooted everything else.

^Every word of this!

 

[The Joker]

The original still holds up very well. Like most reboots, this is not needed.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

This.

At least James Wan is still a creative person, you can expect new ideas from him, and perhaps something different from this concept like moving to scorpions and ticks.

Or ghostly demon spiders! InSpideous!

Remember Eight Legged Freaks?

The original had who, Jeff Daniels and John Goodman? I've watched it a couple of times. Based on the director this one may be too serious. If they cast someone exciting I might be interested.

 

[MadderMaximus]

I like Wan, but I have a hard time seeing him handling comedy. He could surprise me though. His only disappointment for me so far was Dead Silence, and even that I didn't think was terrible.

I love Dead Silence but I've seen quite a few people say they're not so keen on it.

I remember the concept, and David Arquette.

 

[Dave McFly]

No Goodman, no deal


"That's right, I'm bad"

 

[Hordakfan]

You mean remake, not reboot, two different things.

 

[Hordakfan]

Because they already rebooted everything else.

Don't you mean remake, which is a very different thing?

 

[Inhuman117]

James Wan = Horror = Lots of Spiders i think i need a new Sister

 

[Sawyer]

This is a win IMO.

 

[DarkKnight88]

Yeah he plays well with camp/horror like the tone of the original.

 

[samsnee]

The original was a slow burn that I don’t think would work with audiences today. It will be interesting to see what they do with this.

 

[shauner111]

This scares the hell out of me.

Christopher Landon on We Have a Ghost & Arachnophobia Reboot

I have to ask, is your Arachnophobiaremake the next project you have lined up?
Christopher Landon: I’m hoping it should be my next film. We’re getting super close. The script’s done. I’ve been working on that for a while now. So now it’s just really about getting it together. I met a spider wrangler the other day, so that’s a good sign!

Are you actually scared of spiders?
Christopher Landon: Terrified. So like I’ve said, I’m either the most qualified or the least qualified person to do this movie.
