Can you think of many?

Hairspray 2007 > Hairspray 1988
Footloose 2011 > 1984
Poseidon 2006 > The Poseidon Adventure 1972
Homeward Bound 1993 > Homeward Bound 1973

Horrors

The Hills Have Eyes
The Thing
House Of Wax
Piranha
The Town That Dreaded Sundown

All better than the originals

I enjoyed it but yeah it doesn't hold a candle to the original.

The Thomas Crown Affair has a good remake, though I haven't seen the original.

(I think I have posted that here before, haha.)

I really like the reboot of Friday the 13th even though a lot of fans hate it and I’d actually say its my favourite in the series? So that. I’d say Texas Chainsaw Massacre’s remake as well. I’ve never seen the originals but I’ve heard the remakes (which I’ve seen) for Piranha and The Hills Have Eyes are far better than the originals.

The Thing! Obviously not the crap from like 2011, but the one from the 1980s. Apparently it's a remake of an even older movie, from like the 50s!

The Fly!

101 Dalmations with Glenn Close is good. Jungle Book is the only decent recent Disney "live action" film.
