The threads must have been chewed out the last time the screw was used. This is a pain in the tail bone job to fix!! To be honest it might be easier to just replace the entire remote!
If you have time and an epic amount of patience you could try the following.
You only need to get the screw far enough out to get hold of it with tweezers. If you can grip the remote in some sort of clamp you might be able to unscrew it while gently levering the screw head with a very small flat screwdriver or 'very very carefully' with the tip of a scalpel blade.
Gently lever between the side of the screw head and the side of the hole it is in as you turn the screw and it might catch enough thread to come out. Good luck!
