I cant loving wait for the Friday remake. I normally hate remakes, but Friday the 13th is ready for a reboot, I mean where the hell are they gonna take Jason after space and Freddy? My favorites are 6, 7, 4 then FvJ and Jason X Also I am holding out hope that one of the sequels to this remake will take place during winter at Camp Crystal Lake.

Maybe Roy was possessed by the Jason demon baby like in Jason Goes to Hell. God that was retarded. I wonder if trying to explain Friday 5 had any influence in that.

I loved Jason X, followed the movie daily online at fridaythe13thforum.com (now gone), saw it twice in theaters, bought the movie on DVD the first day it came out and the McFarlane action figure. I thought the kills where really creative, Über Jason is badass, the writer Todd Farmer gets killed in the film and looks like Stone Cold (he posted on the forums and seemed like a cool guy), and the ending was awesome. I think I would list my favorites as 6,4,7,FvJ,JX,3,1,2,8,JGTH,5

Just got back from an advanced screening of Friday the 13th in Columbus, OH. Jason is brutal in this one. I don't think he looked as big as Hodder but he was pretty imposing. The kills are great, gore hounds will not be disappointed. There's a few that I don't know how they got past the censors given F13's history. A few are heading in the torture porn territory. Also jump scares...everywhere, and all are predictable. But overall I liked it. Oh also more tits than part 4. If your wondering about Jason having teleportitis yes Anyway for those that see it, kill discussion: loving Asian guy getting the screw driver slowing jammed into his throat! How the hell did that scene last so long? 20 years ago it would have been cut down for sure. Also the sleeping bag scene, jesus christ! Jason never really let his victims linger before like that. Also I would add the axe to the back of the token black guy and letting him sit there and suffer to draw the others out. The many eyeball gouges where loving great though. Also the machete through the deck to the topless chick was loving amazing. I cant say any of the kills disappointed me.

Don't do it, just hold out. One good thing about the kills, I didn't notice any CGI. Also wanted to mention the clothes/hair styles are very 80's esque.

Teenage Fansub posted:Too many ugly sluts and fake boobs. Christ you must have really high standards. quote:Really? I thought the kills were totally wussy compared to the previous movies. This isn't zombie Jason, he isn't going to be tearing people in half. You're forgetting machete to the neck (neck separates), fire poker? through the cops eye and out the back of the door (you could see brain matter hanging off the end), axe through the back of the black dude. Also the deaths where never allowed to linger in the older movies. I think all the recent torture porn flix relaxed the censors a bit. The screwdriver kill would have been a quick cut away in the 80's. There's no way I think the movie was perfect, it definitely had some pacing issues. The first 3rd of the movie could have been done much better. And it definitely didn't add anything new, which I think is going to disappoint the longtime F13 fans the most, but its a loving remake what do you expect.

Teenage Fansub posted:Well I still think the DVD is going to come out with mega violent alternate versions like the girl getting her face mashed up in the rotor blades instead of just getting bonked on the head You got me there, the guys did look mostly the same. The girls where unrealistic but im not going to complain.  I still think if they cut the first part shorter they could have gone for some more character development. Its hard to get attached to any of the characters or care when they die. Doesn't the Asian guy call everyone cliches at one point?

Ozz81 posted:I know when that whole DVD set was released a couple years back, it had the movies and most had some bonus/extended scenes. The part I remember best about it was in Part 7, when Jason grabbed the girl in the sleeping back and slammed her against a tree. In the unedited/uncut version, he actually slams her against the tree like 4 or 5 times, rather than just once. Apparently filmmakers felt it was too gruesome and brutal so they shortened it up. I bought that box set the day it came out. Some of the cut scenes are on the bonus disc, with commentary. But they where pretty bad quality. I think they got them off a VHS the director owned. It would be nice to see everything put back together and polished.

FirstCongoWar posted:I just watched the His Name Was Jason documentary on Netflix, and I can't say I'm really a fan. If you've ever seen a documentary on slasher films in general you've seen this movie, there's really not much at all that's insightful or new in it. I thought it was great. The previous F13 DVDs where mostly bare-bones except for a few commentaries like on part 7. This documentary was the first time I've seen interviews from all of the directors and all of the people that played Jason. not to mention seeing a bunch of the actors/actresses again.

knifehitz posted:edit: Well poo poo, I'm glad I got this while it was still available, over $100 used on Amazon now. If I was going to pick a book that I would spent $100 on it would be at the top of the list, it's pictures are great. I think any book or DVD that is out of print and no longer for sale gets jacked up to $100 by the Amazon re-sellers. Its really crappy but what can you do. edit--> I don't know if this has been posted yet but the Friday remake DVD has a release date of 6/16/09! Here is a link to the covers: http://iconsoffright.com/news/2009/04/look_at_friday_the_13th_dvd_co.html I'm definitely going to get the 'Killer Cut'. I wonder what they put back into the movie though? Some of those kills seemed like they where sneaking past the censors already for the theatrical release.

Starting with part 6 he is a zombie. Its interesting to speculate about, because in part 6 he is shot through the head and it doesn't seem to effect him in any way. I don't know if an appendage cut off of him would still be animated or not. It doesn't really matter anymore since with the reboot he is no longer a zombie. I hope they make more new movies and turn him undead again though!

Just picked up the Friday DVD. No commentary? These fuckers are going to make me double dip in a few years  I also saw separate Uncut and 3D versions of Friday 3. Are these worth it? I don't want to re-purchase anything I already have from the 2004 box set. I think the only Friday I would re-buy for an uncut version would be part 7.

It's not like the remake broke any new ground, save for the inclusion of scientifically enhanced boobs. Right but I heard rumours that there was finally talk about having it in a winter setting. Something that has been on the top of my 'Jason want list' since they finally made FvJ.

The Phantom Goat posted:Do any of you guys ever go to horror cons? I haven't been to one myself, but I think that Horror Hound Weekend in Indianapolis next march will be my first. They're gonna have Argento, and I just can't pass up a chance to meet him. I went to Horror Hound Weekend in Cincinnati last month. It was my first horror con. It was pretty small but had some great guests. If you're going for autographs bring at least $20-$30 per person and some kind of case/backpack to hold them in. Argento might be more. Malcolm McDowell charged $30 and Linda Blair was $40 I think (dunno, she didn't show up on time). Don't expect to spend more than an hour or two unless you plan on going to a panel or movie screenings. I thought it was cool that you could go up and talk to actors without having to wait in any lines, or buy anything from them really, except for the major guests. If you're interested in buying poo poo go on the last day for the 'I don't want to haul this poo poo back home' sales! Also don't expect any free swag like at comic conventions. None of the booths had anything like that. Boinks fucked around with this message at 23:17 on Dec 7, 2010 |

No recommendation of Dellatmorte Dellamore (Cemetary Man) for a great zombie movie? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109592/ Shame on you guys. This is one of my favorites after the NotLD series and the first Return film. It's a little bit of a serious zombie movie, a little bit wacky, a little bit comedy and a little bit art film.

I don't know what happened with Romero the last 5 years or so. But I like Land even more now than when it came out. The message he hits you over the head with (which some people hate but I love it) works even better after OWS. Also I like to imagine it's one long post apocalyptic episode of The Mentalist.

I made it about half-way through last night before I went to bed but it was just as awesome (hilarious) as I remember it. What are people's thoughts on The Gate remake? At first I was horrified but then I read that Alex Winter is directing and now I cant wait to see what he does with it. Then again the writer Kerric Macdonald has no other writing credits on IMDB

Popular Human posted:God, Quarantine 2 was such a poo poo movie. I watched it because the first one was pretty good, and because I thought it would be really interesting to see how a zombie movie could be filmed entirely in the enclosed space of an airplane. Turns out it isn't, the characters are on the plane for all of twenty minutes before they're shunted into some magically sealed airport warehouse where they're chased around by zombies. Sigh. Have you seen Flight of the Living Dead? Takes place entirely on the plane and I enjoyed the hell out of it.

It's funny that you would say DotD is 'overlong', when I was a teenager I went out of my way to find a copy of the Director's Cut on VHS for that extra 10 minutes or so of footage. The extra gore and shots from the 2nd floor of the mall was priceless to me, I could have watched another hour of that movie easily. Perhaps you would enjoy the Argento cut more? I can't be the only one the in retrospect finds the Dawn remake perfect commentary on the current ADHD narcissistic riddled 'Millennial' generation?

Did anyone mention George Romero presents Deadtime Stories yet? Only seek these out if you're desperate for an anthology. I've only watched the first one, of the 3 stories the first one is terrible, second one is creepy and good, the third one is a werewolf tale directed by Tom Savini and it was ok.
