The Eye (2008)
The original version of "The Eye" was a Cantonese horror franchise. The US version wasn't the first attempted remake, either. It had been revamped in India, twice. The story follows Jessica Alba's character after she receives an eye transplant and can see supernatural visions.
Bangkok Dangerous (2008)
Nicholas Cage plays a hitman who travels to Bangkok for a series of hits. Though the original film won a filmmaking award at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2000, the remake earned overwhelmingly negative reviews. Nicholas Cage has really pigeonholed himself with these roles.
