The new Friday the 13th came out today. Is anyone seeing it? Apparently it's all 3 of the first movies tied into one. It was produced by Michael Bay, which isn't really that good, LOL. I am going to catch a Matinee tomorrow, but overall don't have very high expectations.

Discuss?

Isn't that the starting goalie for the San Jose Sharks?

Re: Friday the 13th

Re: Friday the 13th
 

Nabokov got the shutout. :)

I think I'm going to wait for this to come out on cable.

Re: Friday the 13th
 

I will not be seeing it. I really hate these MTV movie remakes and will run far and fast from it. I learned me lesson from Rob Zombies Crapoween.

I made it through the 13th, now the real hell is today:fl

Re: Friday the 13th
 

I liked the remake...didn't have the suspense factor that the original held, but it was bloody enough to unsettle me, which is what I like in horror flicks.

Re: Friday the 13th
 

Here's what I'm going by
In that review is all the things I try to avoid in a movie.

Some people love that kind of stuff, But I love the old school style camera work and effects. Seems all the soul and heart has been killed in remakes and in the directors. It seems that art in film is dead when it comes down to making/releasing a Hollywood movie. Maybe writers and directors just gave up and must obey the masters before they get wiped again for free thinking.

Whatever! I'll stick with what I like. :D

Patrick and I went to see this today while Danielle took Abby to see Coraline.

I am a huge fan of horror from the 1960’s through the 1970’s. I barely give modern “horror” a chance. I loved the Friday the 13th flicks as a child and decided after much hesitation to give the latest installment a chance.

I will say, I was amazed that it did not totally suck.

I liked it quite a bit more than I could have imagined. It was your classic campy slasher flick starring your favorite guy in the hockey mask.

It was less than inventive and offered absolutely nothing for the series or horror genre.

However, it was entertaining.

Is it the best F13 flick? No.

Is it worth a matinee to see titties and terror on Camp Crystal Lake? Sure why not.

Re: Friday the 13th
 

Sounds like it's not worth my time, It's hard to drag myself to a movie that doesn't add anything to the original, It seems like a slap in the face to me.

The only remake that's any good is JC's The Thing.

Thanks for the review D!

Re: Friday the 13th
 

John Carpenter's The Thing is a GREAT flick, I agree. :tu

Re: Friday the 13th
 

Did anyone score on Nabokov?

Re: Friday the 13th
 

That's all that I expect from any of the Friday the 13th films. Your review makes me want to go see it even more.

Re: Friday the 13th
 

I just went and saw this movie and boy did it suck! I almost walked out before the opening scene was done. It did get better as it progressed, but they totally screwed up Jason's persona. This wasn't Jason, but some screwjob dressed as him. Were they trying to make him Batman? What was with all the dramatic poses on the rooftop? Some of the methods in which he killed his victims were un-Jasonlike. When did Jason ever take the time to tie someone up in a sleeping bag and then hang them over a campfire? Just friggin' kill the girl already! I wish they gave Rob Zombie the reigns to this film; he would have done it right IMHO. If you are a true Jason Vorhees fan, don't go see this film.:fl

Re: Friday the 13th
 

EDIT: I was amazed to see the number of three, four, and five year old children in the theater for this film. Parents ought to be ashamed to take children this young to see a movie like this.

Re: Friday the 13th
 

Okay, HOW many sequels can you possibly make??

:r

Re: Friday the 13th
 

I believe this was the 12th Jason film.:)
