In a word.........NO

I spent many a Friday night at midnight in college with an opened umbrella, toast and other items being a 20-something dumbass along with countless others at the local theater. Why, part of my youth would be stolen. And honestly, could anyone be hotter than Sarandon in her bra and panties? Scandalous for the time.

And WHO would they get to play the Narrator ? (Where's Yer F!ckin' Neck ?!?) Or Brad ? Or Riff Raff ? Yeah, Sarandon was an UBER-BABE in those days, wasn't she ?

Ive seen the original many times,but to be honest,it really tried too hard to be campy and outrageous.It was made by a major studio and it feels akin to your parents trying to be hip.Tim Curry made the movie.I think everyone else could be recast without too much of a problem.Tim Curry,though.....Does Eddie Izzard sing?

The re-make of The Thing from Outer Space was okay, but pales compared to the original. No special-effects is a good thing a lot of times.
I dunno, Jennife Love Hugetits?

Not a chance. She doesn't even come close to having that wide-eyed "Bang me!" look that Sarandon had back then. ESPECIALLY in that movie.

I'm not so sure they're gonna "pull this off" anymore. Look at this.
