* As a kind of homage to this trope, the very-Japanese-style-horror [[PlayStation 2]] game ''[[Siren (video game)|Siren]]'' was remade as ''Siren Blood Curse'' on [[PlayStationPlay Station 3]], along with all the changes that normally get applied to Hollywood remakes of Japanese horror (though the original ''Siren'' and its sequel did both get English releases first time round). While ''Siren Blood Curse'' is still set in a Japanese village, the all-Japanese cast of the original has been replaced with an American TV crew sent in to do a documentary about the legends surrounding the area.
* The ''[[Captain Future]]'' series of novels were adapted into a tokusatsu series in Japan titled ''Captain Ultra'', which was unrelated to Tsuburaya's [[Ultra Series]] despite the name, although it was treated by the network as such since it was picked up as a filler series between the finale of ''[[Ultraman]]'' and the premiere of ''[[Ultra Seven]]''.
* ''[[In Nomine]]'' was an American remake of French tabletop roleplaying game ''In Nomine Satanis/Magna Veritas''.
