By redo you must mean the celluloid version as the book is perfection?

this is definitely in need of a remake, and Mick Garris is in need of a kick in the ass :)

book is amazing, mainstream tv show (for that's what they bastardised it into) has good moments but as was said above, it was too watered down and lost a lot of it's impact. I'd love to see an HBO style remake of this (couldn't be a single movie unless the movie was 20 hours long heh) :P
