I (Dan) have only recently become a fan of horror movies, not that i never used to like them but just that i didn't have the means to watch them nor did i have the balls. As a young horror addict i have had remakes rammed won my throat at a young age (Not the only thing (I go to a catholic school full of horny priests)) without even watching the originals, although many stuck-up horror supremacist would look upon me as a mislead sheep, for me it is not entirely a bad thing...some remakes are just as good if not better than their predecessor.
So, here we go...
The Haunting - Original vs. Remake ................................................. ORIGINAL!
Let The Right One - Original vs. Remake...........................................REMAKE!
----Let Me In is a fantastic film with characters that i admire almost instantly
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre - Original vs. Remake....................... Tied
---- Fuck OFF - The remake is banging!

---- I have no idea why the original is critically acclaimed....its bollocks

The Fly - Original vs. Remake..............................................................REMAKE!
