The Tingler.. now I LOVE the original Vincent Price flick an I'm a big William Castle fan. But that concept could actually be made into a really unsettling body horror film. Someone got the rights to remake it (I believe Darren Bousman was attached at one point), but nothing ever happened.
The Funhouse- Tobe Hooper's 80s slasher. Its really unsettling and cool for the first half and then just turns into the typical slasher movie later on. I actually think this is the type of film Rob Zombie could do a superior remake to. All his fetishes are here (classic horror, carnivals, clowns, freaks, rednecks, etc.).
It- Dunno if you'd call it a remake since it was a novel, but the book was probably the one of the scariest things I've ever read and IMO one of King's true masterpieces. And it was turned into a goofy TV movie where everything (besides Tim Curry's iconic performance as Pennywise) was awful. I can only imagine what someone like Frank Darabont would be able to do with this.
