Done To Death: Horror Movie Remakes, Rip-offs, and the Classics that inspired them episodes

1 hr 26 min - Children of the Corn (2009)
This episode we talk about 2009's SyFy Channel production of Children of the Corn.
*EDITOR'S NOTE: Of the first three pairs of episodes we've released of this podcast at this point (REC and Quarantine, The Wicker Man '72 and The Wicker Man '06, and Children of the Corn 1984 and this episode) this pairing was actually the earliest to be recorded. We're opting to mention this because as far as the format of the episode goes, this episode sort of represents a now bigone era of the show, as it's taken over a dozen unreleased episodes to even get to a point where we felt the show was ready to present for public consumption. Going forward, you can expect to hear episodes with the more category-focused format that our REC/Quarantine and Wicker Man 72/Wicker Man 06 episodes exemplified as opposed to our COTC episodes (especially this COTC episode which, you may find as well, is far more "info-dumpy" up top than hopefully any episode ever record in the future.
1 hr 54 min - Children of the Corn (1984)
This episode Rich, Justin, and Vanessa talk all about 1984's Children of the Corn and rate it on our Remake Bait scale. Heads up, there's a reference to not knowing what the following episode will be, but it'll definitely about at least one of the COTC remakes.
1 hr 27 min - The Wicker Man (2006)
The one where we talk about 2006's The Wicker Man and see how it stacks up against the original and on it's own merits.
2 hr 13 min - The Wicker Man (1973)
The one where we talk all about 1973's The Wicker Man and rate it's remake appeal.
2 hr 5 min - Quarantine (2008)This is the sister episode to our REC episode (Episode 1). This episode we talk about Quarantine's merits as a film in it's own right as well as how it compares to 2007's REC, the film it's a remake of.1 hr 59 min
- REC (2007)We talk about 2007’s [REC] and breakdown how we think it stands as a movie in it’s own right as well as it’s appeal as a film to be remade as this film was just a year later (2008’s Quarantine)1 hr 56 min

From the publisher's feed
Rich and his co-hosts, Justin & Vanessa, take turns talking about a classic horror movie and then follow-up with an episode about a later film that, in one way or another, takes that classic story…
and reworks it, either as an official remake or something less directly related. Topics of conversation often lean toward comparing one another but also how they stand in their own right.
