The 10 Funniest Things About The It Lives Remake

Normally, Hollwyood's crass cash-grabbing remakes of classic films are sad and disappointing events. It's one thing to be creatively frustrated and rehash the same old plots over and over again, there are only so many stories out there. It's another to cast Cedric the Entertainer in the fucking Honeymooners. But if this trailer is anything to go by, the upcoming remake of 1974's It's Alive is not a crude and cynical attempt at squeezing a few begrudging dollars out of an undiscriminating audience. It's an attempt to make the funniest movie of all time.

LOLOLOLOLOL. It's hard to put into words what is so great about this, so I have tried to do so with pictures, after the jump.

This kid in the rasta hat is funny.

A beautiful home? You mean the Taco Bell?

This is funny.

That's how you know he's a psychologist!

"I can't do this right now, because of my baby."

"Never, ever eat this!"

This is funny.

Will someone turn off that damned Getting Eaten By a Monster Baby in the Car Alarm.

Well, this kid is in a wheelchair for no reason.

I'M GOING TO SHOOT THAT FUCKING BABY IN THE FACE.
