Remake, Horrors!

Whether you are more terrified of the spawn of Satan or carnivorous produce, the recent news that remakes of two very different horror favorites should scare you in equal measure.

First, the certified classic Rosemary's Baby will be delivered again on the big screen, with Transformers director Michael Bay (eek!) serving as the midwife. On the other end of the spectrum, the title vegetables (or are they fruit?) of the cult comedy Attack of the Killer Tomatoes are preparing to attack once more.

And while the former seems entirely unnecessary, the latter could work, but only if they keep the original theme song, easily one of the best title tunes ever. All together now: "I know I'm going to miss her/A tomato ate my sister ... "

UPDATE: The Rosemary's Baby remake has been scrapped.
