I’ve seen the trailer of a yet another useless remake. The upcoming rehasing of Friday the 13th. The above clip is a scene from the set of the film. The trailer isn’t out yet for public access. This is confusing because the character of Jason Vorhees wasn’t the focus of the original 1980 film, in other words, the film was actually a mystery. The trailer of the film shows a hulking, athletic Jason Vorhees(hockey mask) an all running after people. My only guess is that this version of the film is actually an update of all the films(or a remake of ALL the films). My comment about the trailer is that from what I saw(I might actually give this a chance, for a second)it looks like nothing orginal. It looks like its going to be another TEXAS CHAINSAW remake, where they’re going to up the blood and lower the scares. My only question to the producer of the Friday the 13th update is the following: What are you going to do to make the action and the scenes in the film original? The Friday the 13th series had ten sequels(Not counting the spin-off Freddy vs. Jason), what hasn’t been done, what weapon hasn’t Jason used to dispatch some horny teenagers. The film comes out in October of 2008, and we’ll see if updating this time works for the better or worse.
