They knew how to do this in the 80s. Little Shop of Horrors, The Fly, and The Thing for example. All remakes that far surpassed the cheesy originals.

The 80s version of The Blob is terrifying.

I was scared of the colour pink for like 3 years in primary school.

And still holds up. Been showing classics to my horror-interested nieces and nephews and they loved 80s Blob most of all so far.

We need the 80s coke back. Ketamine ain't doing shit for us.

80s coke was amazing. New Coke barely works and makes it hurt behind my eyes
