Climbing Up Jacob's Ladder Again

News rose today that "Jacob's Ladder" was being remade. While my opinion of remakes in general is unfavorable and I quickly try to forget, this one really made me think.

"The Sixth Sense" seemed to be more than inspired by Jacob's Ladder. This would take any sting from the "he was dead all along" twist of the film.

Supernatural films are flooding the market. By the time Jacob's Ladder is released, supernatural films will be played out, so no one is going to take the film seriously.

I would've thought that someone putting together a multi-million dollar film would take these things in mind, but I guess time will tell if I'm right or wrong.

What do you think?
