Remake is not the right word to use there my guy. You're looking for Adaptation. This is a new and gritty adaptation, it's not a remake of anything

The real problem with the found footage genre is that the barrier to entry financially to make one is so low that anyone with a fucking phone could potentially make one. When the market is that potentially saturated, like, 99% of the content within it is dog shit but that 1% that stands out is really good.

Also not enough found footage media follow what I believe are the rules you must follow when making a movie within that genre. And that is a commitment to Long rehearsed one takes, as little editing as humanly possible, and for the love of God no obvious audio editing or audio cues edited into the track that clearly did not come from either the camera mic or a previously established microphone. Nothing annoys me more than when a jump scare or something happens in a found footage movie and there's an audio noise put in and I'm just sitting there thinking "wait I'm being presented with found footage... who edited that in?" lol
