The newer renditions of Frankenstein's monster are much different than the early versions. While Hollywood special effects and makeup can make characters seem very realistic, I still like the old school Frankenstein movies as well as wolfman if for no other reason than nostalgia. Therefore Boris gets the nod from me to. I agree. Also, The Monster Squad was not a Universal movie and so were not allowed even to try to make him up like the Boris Karloff original.

movieweb.com/universal-monsters-movie-james-wan/?fbclid=IwAR3Ek11NUWvIEinpqwgADDqPUyODr3Px9U-0N9igaBcDrSfU--k-gnXCovI James Wan Is Developing a Universal Monsters Movie. James Wan is developing a Universal Monsters movie. Robbie Thompson, a co-executive producer on CW's Supernatural, has been tapped to write the screenplay for the upcoming project. The Conjuring creator has been on a roll lately and has his hands in a ton of different projects at the moment. Universal is currently enjoying the success of The Invisible Man, which has exceeded box office estimates while also becoming a hit with critics. It seems Universal is looking to revitalize their Dark Universe after all. The untitled Universal Monsters movie from James Wan will reportedly "take its cues from Universal's classic monster legacy and shines it through a modern prism." Sources say the movie has "shades of Disturbia" and the story will "focus on a group of teens who discover that a neighbor is building a monster in his basement." The mystery monster will undoubtedly bust out and all hell will break loose. Wan will not be behind the camera on the untitled project, though he will be a producer under his Atomic Monster banner. A director has not been announced as of this writing. Universal Monsters characters include Dracula, Frankenstein, The Mummy, The Invisible Man, Bride Of Frankenstein, The Wolfman, and Creature from the Black Lagoon. James Wan could be dipping into that territory, or he could go into some lesser-known characters like Weird Woman, The Frozen Ghost, Pillow Of Death, and The Mole People. With Wan attached, the movie has a good chance at continuing the success of The Invisible Man and bringing more Universal Monsters movies to the surface. Hopefully some updates will be announced in the near future.

Those are all John Wick movies staring Keanu Reeves. A sequel is not a remake or reboot.

There was never a remake of the John Wick series. The director of the series did have some interesting inspirations though.
An interesting tidbit as I don't recall the wick series ever going into wicks past before he became a hitman.

The funny thing was when he walked down the steps trying to look all creepy, and his girlfriend laughed at him. I thought about that ( at the time ). That was realistic; and funny. Edit and add: Creature Feature came not long after Shock Theater ended. Pretty-much the same thing. Now we have svengoolie.com/

The Tombstone flicks / OK Corral movies ... There have been a few over the years... I liked the one with Kirk Douglas and Burt Lancaster and John Ireland as Ringo, good cast, decent acting ... Doc Holliday was about 36 when he died I think, he was portrayed by Jason Robards too , who must have been in his 50's at least in that movie, I think James Garner played Wyatt. The Tombstone movie that came out in the 1990's with Kurt Russel as Wyatt, Val Kilmer as Doc, Michael Biehn as Ringo, and also having Charleton Heston and Buck Taylor ( Newly from Gunsmoke) was very entertaining, had a great cast of supporting actors -Powers Both I believe, Sam Elliot, Bill Paxton, Billy Bob Thornton just to name a few off the top of my head- I think this is the best of the Tombstone / Gunfight at the OK Corral movie
The Wyatt Earp flick with Kevin Costner was also entertaining, I think Dennis Quaid played Doc -? He looked sickly etc.. like the real Holliday probably would have

All great movies. While I most often prefer the older movie versions; my favorite one about the OK Corral is Tombstone (1993).

I loved the 1957 version of gunfight at ok corral with Kirk Douglass and Burt Lancaster. That being said I'm in agreement with you guys that the 1993 Tombstone is the best gunfight at OK corral movie of all time. Loved the cameo with Charlton Heston.
