I know a lot of people are thinking this is a shitty idea, another pointless remake, etc. To be honest, I think a “Monster Squad” remake is a good idea and it needs one. The original was real good, but a lot of it could use many improvements with the special effects. Especially the effects with the amulet and the portal at the end of the movie. If Platinum Dunes can make the “Friday the 13th” remake really good, I’m sure they won’t fail with the “Monster Squad”.

It’s going to be interesting to see who’ll they get for Dracula. If they were to find a Dracula they would have to find a face that matches the Dracula from the original film. Also wonder who’ll get the role for the Scary German Guy or Det. Crenshaw (Stephen Macht’s role). Will any of the original cast even make a possible cameo apperance? Brent Chalem who played Horace won’t be able to ’cause he’s dead, but hopefully there will be some kind of reference to Brent in the film as a tribute to him.

I would like to see Andre Gower, Ryan Lambert (Rudy) or Stephen Macht, make a cameo. It would be sweet, I’m sure one of those guys would make an appearance.
