The original works remain somewhat enigmatic, the intervening years have done little to explain their existence. They are themselves therefore unexplained phenomena, like the phenomena that was their ostensible subject. The very fact of revisiting the project, the act of reenaction, the possibility of the remake, are all propositions that will call into question the efficacy of the original project. Like the ghost it is elusive, and how much is the revisitation, like a seance or an exorcism, likely to summon up or evict the spectres of meaning, intention or significance.
