Save your energy on this one, because it's something that we now are just going to have to accept: all classic horror films will inevitably be remade. In the words of many a chip fat-scented girlfriend to her punchy boyfriend at pub kicking-out time, leave it, it's not blaady woorf it.

Platinum Dunes, serial remakers, have decided to give a 21st century brush up to Roman Polanski's Rosemary's Baby, reports shocktillyoudrop. Based on Ira Levine's 1967 book, the original film told of a recently married woman (Mia Farrow) who becomes spooked by the odd behaviour of her husband and creepy neighbours and then finds herself pregnant with something that might have cloven hooves in place of chubby toes. It was, of course, quite, quite brilliant and doesn't particularly need replacing.

However, Platinum Dunes is now seeking writers for the remake. The company is also currently working on updates of Friday the 13th and A Nightmare on Elm Street.
