How many times has a director re-made his own movie with a bigger budget?

The most famous example of this is Evil Dead 2, the "sequel" to Evil Dead.

The inspiration for this thread was looking at newer horror movies and I stumbled across Malum:



Looking at the summary, it seemed familiar:

quote:

A rookie police officer takes the last shift at a newly decommissioned station in an attempt to uncover the mysterious connection between her father's death and a vicious cult.


I was like, that sounds like a LOT like the older movie, the Last Shift



Literally a remake by the exact same director 9 years later, with a bigger budget.

Luc Besson with La Femme Nikita 1990 and Anna 2019. Essentially the same film with different elements and setting.

Not directly but I feel like Snatch is a elevated cast/budget version of lock stock and 2 smoking barrels for guy Ritchie

Alfred Hitchcock w/The Man Who Knew Too Much in 1934 and 1956.

The original is kind of like a really good rough draft.

I watched Malum a little while ago and thought it seemed familiar.
