The thing about Western remakes of J-horror films is that if they didn't get remade, they would never reach the kind of audience they do in the West.
Let's face it, North American audiences don't like to watch foreign films in any great numbers. Remaking the films with familiar faces, in English, is just plain good business.
The upside is this: If you don't like remakes, the originals are available on DVD, or in some cases, in arthouse cinemas.
