I think a remake of Thriller would be pretty good


if set in the veins of anthology like American horror story and channel zero maybe have someone real creepy like crispin glover. winona ryder or tony todd as the story teller

No, honestly it wouldn't. Anymore than revivals of properties like The Twilight Zone were.

If they revived Thriller, the stories wouldn't be anywhere near as well written, because quite frankly, modern TV writers can't write to save their lives. We've seen this illustrated time and time again. The stories would be rife with "topical" contemporary issues, there'd be a bunch of heavy handed plots about racism and sexist etc. It just wouldn't be the same, and nowhere near as good.
