production company Platinum Dunes is headed in a new direction. the company will no longer remake classic horror films. Instead, it will focus on original concepts. Platinum Dunes started with The Texas Chainsaw Massacre in 2003, a remake of Tobe Hooper’s 1974 original. The company also released The Amityville Horror in 2005. While those films were commercially successful, they weren’t exactly critically-acclaimed. Platinum Dunes is revamping their strategy as a result.
