How about The Wicker Man?
Chances of it being set in America, with all nudity and religious references removed? High.
Odds of Nicolas Cage bursting out of the wicker man at the last moment with a machine gun? Moderate to good.
I'm not saying it'll suck completely........... I'm just typing it.
But seriously, they've admitted that the slump in box office takings this year was down to a poor selection of badly made movies, and whilst a lot of these remakes would be fairly good in their own right if they weren't actually remakes they always fare badly when compared to their superior predecessors. The only stereotypical move that appears to be missing from this remake is a Britt Ekland cameo as a witch or something.
