Reviews for both films are extremely positive. Critics and the people at festivals who've seen them love them.
I have a feeling 'Carrie' will be the same way. |

It depends. Normally they both suck.
These are some good ones -
Remakes -
The Thing (1982) The Blob The Fly Evil Dead Maniac
Reboots -
Rise of the Planet of the Apes The Amazing Spider-Man The Dark Knight Wes Craven's New Nightmare |

Really it depends on the movie & director.
Sometimes they remake movies that don't need to be remade - giving the whole franchise a bad reputation. |

Prequels only happen to movies that need it. For example, people have been trying to make a sequel to The Thing for years. Finally some people got a prequel going, albeit a bad one, simply because we didn't know what happened to the Norwegians.
Batman 1989 wont get a prequel because we've seen batman's origin a thousand times and most people prefer Nolan's movies now anyway so thered be no profit or reason. |

If you're not doing a origin story then it'd be a meaningless rehash.
So
It's not happening. .-. |

That doesn't mean YOU or I will necessarily love them.
The films are practically the same, with additional gore, and in Evil Dead's case lacking the presence of Ash Williams who is the heart of the series. A Nightmare on Elm Street, and Friday the 13th were the same films, with additional gore, and everyone hated them. |

No. We don't know if we ourselves will like them.
But I can tell they're being made a lot better than other remakes. They aren't rehashes and fix the mistakes of their precedents.
Ash was barely a character in the original. It was all about scotty. And I don't think any of us would want ash in a remake. Because you're either going to have a 60 year old Bruce Campbell which wouldn't fit in a remake, or someone like Nicholas Brendon which would cause people to complain about how its not Bruce.
And the reasons the 'Friday' and 'Elm Street' remakes weren't well-recieved is because they lacked the charisma of the originals. The first 'Friday' was surprising because of the female killer. It was new and fresh. Seeing Jason kill a bunch of tern characters we don't like wasn't new and fresh.
Elm Street was a insanely original concept with actors that stood out and felt like actual people we would see in our own lives. The remake failed to do so.
