The 2020 remake of Castle Freak (1995).This time around, instead of following a troubled husband and father, the story is centered around Rebecca, who was once again blinded in a drunk driving accident by her boyfriend. Sometime later, she inherits the titular castle from her mother, wherein the title character dwells and is stalking her and John. Oh, and this time around, it's an adaptation of The Dunwich Horror instead of The Outsider. | |

Hotter and Sexier | |
| Castle Freak (2020) / int_108c268e | comment |
Hotter and Sexier: The sex and nudity is a lot more gratuitous here than in the original to the point where it comes off as filler. | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
| Castle Freak (2020) / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: The castle freak is a lot more knowingly malicious this time around, violently ramming syringes through the drug dealer and committing Rape by Fraud on John. Then there's John himself, who's a much worse person and who tried to kill Rebecca just because she was the sister of the castle freak. The professor, aka Armitage, is loosely based on Professor Henry Armitage, but this time, he seeks to tap into the power of Yog-Sothoth instead of trying to banish him. | |

Related in the Adaptation | |
| Castle Freak (2020) / int_24067bb9 | comment |
Related in the Adaptation: Or rather, more closely related in the adaptation. The castle freak is Rebecca's sister here, whereas in the original, Giorgio was the son of the duchess and John's father, so he was Rebecca's uncle. | |

| Castle Freak (2020) / int_2969dda7 | comment |
Nightmare Fetishist: The professor comes off as a little too interested in the Necronomicon. Then in the end, he turns out to be in league with Yog-Sothoth. | |

Adaptational Heroism | |
| Castle Freak (2020) / int_3f45f1e6 | comment |
Adaptational Heroism: As the castle freak is a malicious Humanoid Abomination this time around, Lavinia wasn't wrong to keep her locked up, though maybe she still went overboard by whipping her. | |

Gainax Ending | |
| Castle Freak (2020) / int_82accf22 | comment |
Gainax Ending: A prophecy that was never spoken of or even hinted at before in the movie that involves Rebecca and her sister uniting is fulfilled, which summons Yog-Sothoth and opens the gate, and Rebecca gives birth to... something... which seems to mark The End of the World as We Know It. Then in the end credits, the professor marches into the dean's office to grab Herbert West, whose reagent sits on the dean's desk. Wait, what? | |

Asshole Victim | |
| Castle Freak (2020) / int_8ed5c6e4 | comment |
Asshole Victim: John spends most of the movie being an irresponsible dick, brushing off Rebecca's warnings that someone else is in the castle with them, cheats on her with Shelly, and ultimately tries to kill her after discovering that she's the castle freak's sister. He gets his comeuppance when the castle freak rips his throat out. | |

Adaptational Jerkass | |
| Castle Freak (2020) / int_a91078ea | comment |
Adaptational Jerkass: Rebecca is, at least at the beginning, a lot more unlikable than she was in the original, though she calms down a bit after being blinded. Then there's John, who was already an unlikable character in the original, but at least had some redeeming qualities and didn't try to kill Rebecca. | |

Race Lift | |
| Castle Freak (2020) / int_d7c3ba61 | comment |
Race Lift: Giorgio, in the original movie, was still technically human, but lost his humanity after spending years of torture in a single room. This time around, the castle freak is a Half-Human Hybrid, conceived when Lavinia was raped in ritual by her possessed grandfather. | |

Hate Sink | |
| Castle Freak (2020) / int_e5fd8bc2 | comment |
Hate Sink: Not that any of the characters are especially likable, but John doesn't seem to be meant to be anything other than a total douchebag who doesn't even have any of the few good qualities that his counterpart in the original did. | |

Creepy Monotone: Downplayed on the "creepy" part. The professor talks like he's trying to emulate Jeffrey Combs as Herbert West, but really, just comes off like he's still reading his lines. | |

Jerkass: How about almost everyone in the cast? Bonus points for John, the boyfriend of the year who clearly doesn't give a rat's ass about his girlfriend to the point where he blows up at her for things as trivial as believing there's someone in the castle with them. | |
