Yeah, what new angle will a remake have? The original wasn’t the first found footage horror, but it was the first one to be filmed with amateur cameras with the actors largely improvising the plot with viral marketing to push it. Nowadays they’d have the actors record everything on smart phones or streaming it live on Twitch, but that concept has already been done to death. And without its hook, the film itself is… just ok? I mean, the ending is great, but the rest is not all that interesting without the found footage premise.
