I too would like to see Event Horizon made with today's technology but I'm also 100% sure that it wouldn't be as good as the original. I'd still pay to watch it in the theater, probably twice, but the original was perfect.

The reason why it works is because they're using puppets prosthetics and miniatures. It'll look like garbage if they remade it today (go watch the thing prequel for proof).

Once the miniature workers unionized, the studios started to rely heavily on CG because they could make them work insane hours without OT. CG is really a symptom of a labor issue.
