Friday th 13th not a remake
 
Friday the 13th "Not a Remake"!

November 28, 2007


Platinum Dunes' Friday the 13th project. What do you lable it? Remake? Re-launch?

After speaking to a source close to the project who wishes to stay outside of the spotlight (for now), we're striking the former term out of future reports on the film.

"It's not a remake," says our insider. Don't even expect an origin tale - as some production listings around Hollywood are pegging it as. Imagine if there was a story to be told somewhere between parts two and four, just add water (from Camp Crystal Lake, duh), insert a leaner, meaner, faster Jason Voorhees, set to "blend" and you've got the recipe for what Dunes, writers Damian Shannon and Mark Swift and director Marcus Nispel got cookin'.

So it's kind of like Superman Returns, where it picks up in between two previous sequels. I like that idea.

WaW! that's a good news. Hopefully it'll be a great comeback for Jason Voorhees...my all time favorite horror icon.:)

It can't get any worse than "Jason X," so they might as well go for it. I like the idea, too.

Would that make it part 3 then? :)

To be honest, Jason X is a guilty pleasure. It was stupid, but fun (like most of F13 films) And it sure as hell was better than that awful Jason Goes to Hell. I felt as if I was in hell while watching that movie.

As a comic book fan, I'm viewing this as "Ultimate Jason"--a streamlined, outside-of-continuity version of the character.

Totally agree with you. JGTH was worst of the series. I think it genuinely worth to win the title of "Worst sequel of all time.":mad:
