Abstract

Dracula is back among us, and so is the remake. The term denotes a new film recorded on the basis of another, earlier film. There have been many such cases in the film repertories of the recent decades. Since the concept of the remake has not been fully explored, the paper focuses on its role instead, presenting several theories which touch – directly or indirectly – on the explanations for this phenomenon. The analysis focuses on the causes and conditions necessary for the emergence of the remake (repetition) within society. The origins of the remake are attributed to the phenomenon of repetition as a condition for the legitimacy and occurrence of the remake, both within society and, consequently, within the film sphere.
