That resume doesn't inspire a lot of confidence. This is gonna be another in a looooooong line of WTF remakes.

The painting....I remember it was a Bosch, but that's about it.

This would only work if the film had Jan-Michael Vincent going after the guy who was planning to remake 'The Mechanic' and taking him out with Airwolf. Because honestly? The first one is perfect enough.
