Friday the 13th (2009)
July 5, 2009
Another 80′s remake that should have been left alone. Hollywood is set to remake just about every 80′s horror movie including A Nightmare On Elm St. I will be reviewing My Bloody Valentine soon, and I didn’t even bother with Prom Night.
OK, you would think, with today’s technologies in film making and all the slasher films in the past to learn from, including the 10 sequels of Friday The 13th, they would get it right.
The entire cast is unknown, as well they should be, the first group of youngsters slaughtered very quickly, but not in any new or imaginative way, then here comes the second group, just served right up. searching for a legendary hidden field of marijuana the teen and 20 somethings are killed one by one as they venture in to Camp Crystal Lake. Here’s my problem with this movie, this is supposed to be the new improved version, the get it right version, Keep all the stuff that worked and improve on the things that didn’t. Well they didn’t. They did the same movie with more skin, more language, more sex, but not of more of what we want. Great kills. Jason has never been less brutal. You would always what crazy way is he going to kill the next naked cutie. What do we get? The same old machete slice and dice (even more than the original). There a few minor changes from the original version, but, one thing remains the same, no matter how far and fast you run, Jason is always right there. Your better off watching the 80′s version, much scarier, much bloodier, and all around just better.
