looky what I found imdb keyword search: remake of French film. Looks like there's one in 2007.
Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
There's talk of "Anthony Zimmer", "36 Quai", and "Cache" being remade, but none are in production yet.
Yeah, Scrappy, that was pretty bad. Sorry, Megan, I don't know much about French films.
Correction, "36" is in pre-production.
"Taxi" (the Queen Latifah/Jimmy Fallon movie) was a remake of a French film?? Huh.
The 2007 is a Filipino movie - did you need American ones, megan?
According to the Wikipedia page for The Strangers, it is similar in plot to the French film, Ils but was separately inspired.
Well, there is going to be a sort-of sequel to "Paris, je t'aime" called "I Love You, New York," but that's not really going to be a remake as a continuation of the theme.
"Taxi" (the Queen Latifah/Jimmy Fallon movie) was a remake of a French film?? Huh.
Shockingly, it was called Taxi. It was a huge hit in France and there was at least 1 sequel ( Taxi 2, natch). Produced by Luc Besson.
Thanks for the list Laga. Sadly, I see no evidence that Happy Hearts (2007) should be on it.

I still love The Mummy.
I harbor a completely natural crush on Brendan Fraser, would love to take Oded Fehr out back behind the woodshed and have my way with him, have a desperate crush on John Hannah, think Kevin O'Connor makes a deliciously slimy villain, and want to look like Rachel Weisz when I grow up.
