The 99% becomes the 1% and the 1% becomes the 99% in a comedy classic about seeing how the other half lives. Trading Places (1983) stars Eddie Murphy, Dan Aykroyd, Ralph Bellamy, Don Ameche, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Paul Gleason and yes, fits our holiday theme criteria because we like to stay festive here on the Mothership. Join the Invasion of the Remake Podcast in discussing the financial themed comedy and remaking it in a strikingly similar, but very different modern world where the divide between the rich and the poor is greater than ever. Don't worry, we bring the funny too. Lots and lots of funny.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Joyous Kwanzaa, Happy Hanukkah, Fictitious Festivus, and a wonderful Life Day if you live on Kashyyyk.

When you make a Christmas film whose message is against the commercialization of Christmas, the one thing you shouldn't do is fill it with a bunch of gratuitous advertising. Also, if you are trying to right a ship that has gone very wrong with Superman III and Supergirl, you may not want to hire the same director as one of those flops for your next big budget idea. Sadly, that's exactly what Alexander and Ilya Salkind did with the big budget Santa Claus: The Movie (1985) starring Dudley Moore, John Lithgow, David Huddleston, and Burgess Meredith. Despite a whole lot of wrong, the film has since gone on to become a holiday favorite and cult classic. It's so bad, it's good.

But we think we can do it better. We rethink the plot, shave some things off, add a lot more, and recast it. We also tease what a David Cronenberg version of the film might look like. Leave it to the Invasion of the Remake podcast to turn a sweet holiday film into your worst nightmare. Hilarious!

'Tis the season to be stabby, fa la la la la la la la.

Killing sorority girls in there jammies, fa la la la la la la la.

Somebody put that tune in the next remake! This week we focus on Canadian horror classic Black Christmas (1974) directed by Bob Clark of Porky's fame and starring Olivia Hussey, Keir Dullea, Margot Kidder, John Saxon, Marian Waldman, and Andrea Martin. Does the 2006 remake by Glen Morgan stand up against it? The all-star cast in Michelle Trachtenberg, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Lacey Chabert, Katie Cassidy, Kristen Cloke and a returning Andrea Martin certainly give it all the reason to have great success. Or does it crash and burn in a flaming Christmas tree of death and destruction that claims the souls of all who see it? Maybe somewhere in between. Only one way to find out and that's by listening to this week's amazing Invasion of the Remake podcast!

House (1986) is a childhood favorite among the hosts of Invasion of the Remake podcast here in the mothership. Starring William Katt, Kay Lenz, George Wendt, and Richard Moll this comedy, horror made an impact on us, but now it seems a distant memory failing to achieve the cult status that many of its contemporaries had. Well we think it's time for a new audience to discover House and impart our supreme wisdom in what a remake could look like! Open the door, come on in. Try not to wake the dead.

With yet another remake in the planning Invasion of the Remake decided to go back in time to compare and contrast the two films based on the Roald Dahl novel. Willy Wonka and the Chocalate Factory (1971) starring Gene Wilder, Jack Albertson, and Peter Ostrum is now considered a childhood favorite by many given the benefit of time, but wasn't a big success in the box office. Thirty-four years later director Tim Burton brought his vision of the classic novel to the silver screen in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005) with Johnny Depp, Freddie Highmore, Helena Bonham Carter, and Deep Roy to mixed reviews but a massive box office. Our very own Invasion hosts have divided opinions, but they all agree that Willy Wonka must pay for his murderous intentions. Is Willy Wonka a childhood favorite or a child murderer? Download this week's episode to find out.

The Mummy (1932) by Universal Pictures starring Boris Karloff, hot off of Frankenstein, took a world that had already caught Egyptian fever when Tutankhamun was discovered in 1922 by storm. It was a massive box office success that spawned several sequels at Universal and inspired many more films from other studios such as Hammer films. Stephen Sommers remade that iconic film in 1999 with stars Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weise, and Arnold Vosloo reviving the iconic horror film into a modern action/adventure franchise that spawned two sequels and a spin-off series in the form of the Scorpion King. With a new Mummy film set for 2017 starring Tom Cruise, the Invaders wanted to raid the tomb of these two Mummy movies and see which Imhotep is immortal and which one will crumble to dust.

Possibly the first of its kind to blend genres, Bud Abbott and Lou Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948) took a classic comedy duo and pitted them against Universal Picture's horror monsters Dracula, Wolfman and of course the Frankenstein Monster. There is even a cameo by the Invisible Man. Some of the most iconic actors to ever play the monsters return in this comedy/horror film like Bela Lugosi, Glenn Strange, and Lon Chaney Jr. Will a couple of comedy buffoons be a match against the devious plans of Count Dracula? How will Jason and Trish recreate this classic film and who might they cast in it? There is only one way to find out and that is to listen to this weeks Invasion of the Remake!

Peeping Tom (1960) birthed a new genre, the cinematic slasher. Premiering only two months prior to Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho, director Michael Powell created a powerful piece of cinema that wouldn't be recognized for its achievements for another 30 years!

It is a film that you probably never heard of, but every cinema lover should see!

The original Japanese Ring (1998) by Hidea Nakata and the American remake The Ring (2002) by Gore Verbinski started and coined the term J-horror. It was the first of many Japanese horror films to be remade for American audiences and became part of the essential horror film lexicon. Invasion of the Remake watched them and got the call. Seven days the caller on the other end said, we told them we only needed 2 hours. We looked into The Ring, and The Ring looked back in fear because it is October, and you know what that means...we have all the horror...hashtag #AllTheHorror on Twitter and join the conversation!

Rutger Hauer is again the subject to our discerning eye, or possibly wrath, it may be wrath. Phillip (Salt, Bone Collector) Noyce directs Blind Fury (1989), a film loosely based on Zatoichi. A Vietnam veteran blinded during the war comes to town to bury some ghosts of the past and gets drawn into a drug ring that has devastated his friend's family. Good thing he was trained by local villagers while he was missing in action to be a master swordsman. The bad guys will definitely pay in this action, comedy starring Rutger Hauer, Terry O'Quinn, Branden Call, Noble Willingham, Nick Cassavetes, Rick Overton, Randall "Tex Cobb, and Sho Kosugi!

This one was a blast to recast, rethink, and remake! You do not want to miss this one!

You enter a small little flower shop on skid row. It's crowded with people and a large plant looking like a venus fly trap, but much larger, sits in a corner drawing most peoples attention. The faces in the crowd look familiar, people like Dick Miller, Jack Nicholson, Jonathan Haze, Jackie Joseph, Mel Welles are on one side of the room with Roger Corman who looks puzzling across the room at Frank Oz who has a crowd behind him. People like Rick Morranis, Ellen Green, Vincent Gardenia, Steve Martin, Bill Murray, Jim Belushi, and John Candy are staring back at Corman and his crew snapping there fingers and humming. It is all so odd. The plant looks your way and gives you a wry smile, almost winking despite having no eyes. You turn back out the door and decide to order your flowers online because this is just to weird!

Welcome to the odd little world of Little Shop of Horrors! Today the Invaders eye their salads a little more cautiously after watching the original 1960 Corman film and the musical remake from 1986 by Frank Oz! Don't be frightened off by a musical, it also has a giant man-eating plant! Good times. Or is it? Listen to this week's episode to see how these films hold up to each other and the Invasion criticism.

It has 5 Academy Awards and boat loads of critical acclaim. It is on more must watch lists than we can count. So of course attempt to do the impossible by remaking Milos Forman's One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest (1975). We might as well try to climb Mount Everest with our teeth. Who are we to think we can have a better cast than Jack Nicholson, Louise Fletcher, Danny DeVito, Christopher Lloyd, Brad Dourif, Sidney Lassick, and William Redfield? Maybe we should be committed for even trying.

More importantly than trying to remake the film is discussing it. It should be talked about. It is still relevant today and we have a frank discussion about the film, and mental illness. Don't worry, we have some fun as well. It's what we do.

If you have your own suggestions of film classics that we should never ever touch please let us know on:

Next week will be episode #50 but for now we present to you our remaking of Hardware (1990)!

Richard Stanley's low budget science fiction, thriller brought some major themes of environmental collapse, over population, and more, disguised in survival horror.

A young man named Alex Rogan is desperate to escape his small little world in the Starlight Starbright trailer park. His only escape is in the one arcade game at the trailer park, Starfighter. Alex had no idea this game would be the gateway to another life among the stars as a reluctant hero.

Invasion of the Remake goes back to a childhood favorite in The Last Starfighter (1984) rethinking it as a modern remake and how modern gaming might change this sci-fi, adventure film, while still considering the more personal elements that affect Alex's life. Strap yourselves into your Gunstars cause this one is going to be a blast of awesome!

Left alone to defend and ungrateful people, two men battle against the clock and the odds to prove there own self worth in two very different but thematically similar movies. Gary Cooper leads an all-star cast alongside Grace Kelly, Lloyd Bridges, Lee Van Cleef, and Lon Chaney Jr. in the Oscar winning western High Noon (1952). While Sean Connery heads to the third moon of Jupiter, Io, with Frances Sternhagen, Peter Boyle, James Sikking, and John Ratzenberger in the science fiction movie Outland (1981).

When the clock is ticking and the remakes are against you, you can always count on Invasion of the Remake to have your back. The Invaders put these two films into an old fashioned gunfight and only one can come out alive. Listen to this weeks episode to see which has the fastest draw.

Proving we are completely and utterly insane, we took on our very first Fan Challenge. The challenge was to just watch Hard Rock Zombies (1985) but since we are mad as hatters, we had to remake this low budget schlock fest. Cause that is how we roll. We went into this film with no preparation, we watched it, and hit record. This is the result.

Little did we know what we would be in for. Wheelchair bound werewolf? Check. Little mongoloid zombie who eats himself? Check. Hitler? Yup, check, it's got that too. Hard Rock Zombies is full of so much insane that we could never put it all in this intro. Listen to this hilarious podcast about about this so bad, it's still bad, horror, comedy that one of you, our fans, tortured us with. You're welcome.

Tom Holland's original has retro sentimentality as well as Chris Sarandon and Roddy McDowell on his side. But Craig Gillespie brought an an all star cast in Anton Yelchin, Colin Farrell, Imogen Poots, and David (Doctor Who) Tennant! This is going to be a close battle. Subscribe now!
