The Remake Report
Longtime friends Liz Thompson and Nadine Gross compare an original movie to its remake. Season 1 features ‘80s movies, kicking it off with Footloose. Disclaimer: There will be spoilers!
A heartwarming, romantic tale of amnesia and kidnapping, Overboard (1987 and 2018) does not disappoint. We made a mistake with the recorder, so the sound isn't as good for this episode. Sorry!
Liz and Nadine watch the Jon Waters camp classic Hairspray (1988) and the musical remake (2007) adapted from the Broadway play.
It's heee-re! For Episode 2, Nadine and Liz watch Poltergeist (1982) and Poltergeist (2015).
