Unnecessary Remake of the Month

This month it's a tie. Seriously, this makes me want to vomit. 

Up first is Cliffhanger. Keep in mind this Stallone bore-fest came out in 1993. The producers of this unnecessary remake are trying to sell it as a re-boot, citing the recent Star Trek as their idea of a remakequel, or whatever they want to call it. Either way, this sounds like a terrible idea. This aside, isn't there some sort of unspoken rule in Hollywood that, unless it was originally a European foreign language film, there must be at bare minimum a twenty year gap between the original and the remake?

Second up, Dreamworks has decided to remake the 1985 Fright Night. Just...Why? Seriously? Why?
