The more horror remakes continue to pile up, the less mainstream the material available to remake is. The latest examples are the Z-grade 1973 cult film Don’t Look in the Basement — about a nurse who arrives to work at an insane asylum where the patients run amok — and The Brood — the more well-known 1979 killer kid flick from David Cronenberg that’s still hardly a household name and hardly a mainstream movie, with its focus on psychoanalysis and surreal “body horror” imagery. The latter remake is certainly the bigger of the two — and probably the only one that will hit theaters — with director Breck Eisner (The Crazies) reportedly attached.
