I like the gloomy mood from the two first Batman movies. Not sure I'd place them behind the remakes. I saw Batman Begins and I remember almost nothing from it Can't say it had a lasting impression on me. Dark knight was good though.

The Ring. I know lots of people are raving on about how the Japanese version is much more scarier. I disagree, and the remake is more fleshed out storywise, so I definitely like it better. Also, Naomi Watts.

And here's to hoping A Nighmare on Elm Street will have a remake that's better than the original!
