Remake Rumors

I hope to god that this is a rumor. Panic in the Streets is a tight little crime thriller directed by one of my favorites, Elia Kazan. It also marked the feature film debut of Jack Palance. It's a great film, one of the best of the genre, and I'd be really disappointed if they let Mel Gibson tinker with it. Hopefully this'll get debunked in a few days, along with those silly Ron Howard to remake Cache rumors.

This is also extremely unnecessary. And from the director of Saw, no less! How horrifying!
