A remake can be a very tricky place creatively. In my opinion, a remake is only really needed if the original property had the potential to be something great yet fell short when finished. The perfect remake goes its own path yet never truly lets go of the foundation the original built. If the remake shows no resemblance of the original, why even associate it with the original? Why not just make an entirely new film? It’s questions like these that get thrown around a lot when discussing the necessity of remakes, especially in the context of classics.
