I’m looking forward to the remake. Here is my ideal cast:
Kirsty: Scarlet Johansson
Frank: Tim Roth
Julia: Rachel Griffiths (crazy girl from 6 Feet Under)
Larry: Jeff Daniels
Female Cenobite: Kristanna Loken (I would expand the role and have her sit on a throne of corpses like she did in the book)
Pinhead: Samuel L. Jackson (I know this is thinking outside of the box, but nobody says “burn in hell” like Jackson). He can also be scary with his make-up off. I can’t say this same for Doug Bradley)

I’m sorry Dave, but I can’t agree with you where Exorcist III is concerned. I’ve never read the book, but I thought it was a very choppy, poorly thought out film of few virtues. Granted, the last time I saw it was on cable (so it was cut) but still… it still had the look and feel of a budget demonic slasher film, with an absolutely A list cast. If I want George C. Scott horror/suspense, I’d rather go back and watch The Changeling.
