Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT As a genre, sci-fi produces some of the most original and innovative films found anywhere, yet some of the most successful sci-fi movies are actually remakes of earlier projects. Remakes and reboots are a staple of the movie industry – whatever the genre. However, where some movie remakes are explicit in their ties to an original property, the connection is less clear with others.
9 The Fly Remake of The Fly Close The Jeff Goldblum version of The Fly is understandably seen as so iconic that it is now seen as the definitive version of the story. However, despite being less well-known, the original 1958 movie is actually a sci-fi horror classic in its own right. Starring Vincent Price, the earlier movie is much less romantic than Cronenberg's interpretation of George Langelaan's celebrated short story, instead concentrating on the central horror of the premise.
6 I Am Legend Remake of The Omega Man and The Last Man on Earth Close Perhaps because the concept of a sole survivor navigating a post-apocalyptic setting is not unheard of in science fiction, it was not immediately obvious to many movie-goers in 2007 that Will Smith's action thriller I Am Legend is both an adaptation and a remake.
