Default Horror remakes - good or bad?

Anyone into horror think any remakes are better than the originals? I think a majority kinda flop but some are far better

The Hills Have Eyes - The remake is far better than the original in every single way to me, the backstory was better, the acting was far better and much scarier. I think the original was just ok and the cast let it down significantly.

Pirahna 3D - I love the remake and hated the original. apart from the attack on the summer camp it was dull and mutated fish escaping? like it's just a bit meh, the remake was a riot and the massacre at the party was insane

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre - While the original is great and still stands up today even the remake is just as good to me, if not a tad better. The last 12 - 20 mins of the original is full on weird and the decaying grandpa sucking up blood was just an odd choice. I'd say these are both great.

Prom Night - Controversialy I like the remake a little better, yeah the original has much better horror elements but the remake imo felt like a great thriller rather than a horror but it worked and the acting from brittany snow and the adult characters were all spot on, wheras I think JLC looks bored in the original.

Friday the 13th - The original is much better without doubt but I never believed mrs vorhees did all that, felt a little unreal and I dont mind that but a 60ish lady managed to hold a healthy young guy down? She picked up a woman taller than her high enough to toss her through a window? Hmm, the remake gets it right with Jason being the killer straight away and him running made him scary again. The characters were trash though apart from 3 and they shock kill the fan favourite and it felt cheap af

A Nightmare on Elm Street Remake had some promise, the opening and Katie Cassidy made a great start but jeez after they killed her off the movie absolutely stink, the cast looked bored and Rooney Mara was shocking as Nancy, one of the worst actresses around. Even for its minor faults the original is fantastic
