The first that comes to mind for me is The Breakfast Club and I hope it never does have a sequel or remake
The Princess Bride is another good one
Edit: another one of my favourites is Wall.E, my favourite Pixar movie. There are also several other Pixar movies that don’t have sequels or remakes yet
I mean, there are plenty of highly-rated movies that don’t have a sequel (and probably that’s a good thing).
-
The Shawshank Redemption
-
12 Angry Men
-
Schindler’s List
-
Pulp Fiction
-
Fight Club
12 angry men was remade
A remake isn’t a sequel
Not sure if it was possibly edited, but OP did specify sequel or remake
Good point, though the person you’re responding to only said it didn’t have a sequel.

Nice try, Hollywood!
Star Wars sequel trilogy. Hollywood really needs to remake all of them. Interestingly, there are two viable options:
- Actually make them good this time. Hire the Andor team to get it right.
- Modernize them even further, so much so that the entire franchise finally dies for good. Make GPT write the script if you want to go all the way. Sink then billion dollars into this train wreck. When you run out of money, sell the Star Wars IP to Netflix or whatever. Then Netflix will bury it for good.
