I had an idea for a Friday fan script a while back I keep meaning to work on, in which Camp Blood is now a true crime getaway (an homage to the NoBeBoSco tours) that features an actor who plays Jason surprising the visitors. But shocker, the faux Jason snaps and starts killing people for real. At the same time, a few wiccans visiting summon the real Jason, so now there’s 2 Jason’s wreaking havoc.

I was in the exact same boat and watched the producers cut 2 weeks ago. I think it might be the worst movie I’ve ever seen. Paul Rudd was insufferable and I can’t believe we was able to make a career out of acting after that performance. They also try to explain Michaels actions and clean up loose ends to part 5 which are both unforgivable. The only reason anyone should ever have to endure that movie is because it’s Pleasence’s final performance.

Yeah I think my main issues with it are:

1. Trying to ‘explain’ Michael is a futile task and fucks over anyone making a film after you. Just accept him for what he is.

2. “It’s a cult!” is for the most part my least favorite explanation behind something. Emphasized by movies involving cults that I really like, it just often feels a cop out.

The most frustrating thing is finally the movie shows the town of Haddonfield actually being affected and reacting to the murders, they just don’t really do anything with it. Like, that’s your obvious plot to go with to differentiate yourself from prior films and also something that couldn’t have been done until that point in history, but they blew it.

Poor Paul Rudd, he tries so hard.

Yes exactly. Jason became fun again with Jason Lives. No one is going to be scared by him any longer. It's time filmmakers realize this and play up the over the top extravagance that Jason can provide. Fans want a fun horror film that's slightly funny, they certainly do not want a legit scary film as it can't be conjured with a character like Jason. They have already gone off the rails, we don't want bumpers placed to prevent that action again.

We have gone the route of Jason in Space, Jason in Manhattan, how's about an atomic Jason out of Los Alamos killing scientists as he makes his way to the tiny town?

I think it depends on the movie. I'm not really scared of him in 2, but I'm invested in the heroes and don't want them to die.

Like the part with Ginny in the sweater is legit intense.

The next logical step for Jason is time travel, and I'm not in favour of it unless it's also a Waxwork sequel.

After a family tragedy, Nancy Campbell takes a long needed vacation at Camp Crystal Lake. Mocked by the other counselors for her fear of ghost stories, she proves her mettle by chanting "Candyman" before a mirror five times. This greatly upsets camper Angela Parker, who won't stop speaking to her Good Guy doll, which "orders" her to fiddle constantly with a strange puzzle box...

The clear solution to everyone's requests here is a Waxwork sequel where all of the wax tableaus the characters get sucked into are horror movie settings so Haddonfield Il, Camp Crystal Lake, Elm Street, etc.

I tried to watch the new commentary with Tony Todd and Bernard Rose on the Shout Factory blu ray and it's just completely incoherent. They're just shooting the poo poo about all sorts of random topics and hardly ever actually discuss the movie or the scene at hand.

When I read "Friday the 13th found footage movie" my mind immediately went to the idea that Jason was the one doing the filming, and he also edits it all together and adds star wipes and stuff.

It probably wouldn't work as a full movie, but a horror short that's a slasher villain's home movie could have some real comedy potential.

Nature force.

Death is equally as important as life in regards to balance of the natural world.

Also why do all these boutique distributor blu ray sales have to happen at the exact same time?

Saw Near Dark again today, and it struck me how much Mae seemed to enjoy being a vampire. She remarks she will be here when the light from a distant star reaches earth, and how wonderful it is to smell the night. She's made peace with the murder of people as she just says "the night has it's price". The cop-out ending of her being cured by the main guy through a blood transfusion felt kinda mean, honestly. She does remark that she didn't ask to be turned, but she didn't ask to turned back, either. By now probably all her family is dead, she has the blood of ???? number of people on her hands, wanted in other states, etc.

I've been watching a ton of horror movies with month. Some good, some bad. Lots for the first time. Quick list, not extensive

I liked this:
Texas Chainsaw 2, Trick R Treat, In the Mouth of Madness, Prince of Darkness, Horror of Dracula, Dark Water (original)

I didn't like:
Halloween 3, Species II, Suicide Club

I can't stop thinking about :
I Saw The Devil

On the List still:
Changeling, Cure, Re-Animator, Ghost Game, Loner, The Piper

It’s pretty nice. The transfers that I’ve watched so far are really great looking. There’s a shitton of extras, of which I’ve barely scratched the surface, but there’s others here that can speak to those.

Worth $150? I’d say so; this is gonna be THE definitive collection for the foreseeable future.

Watched Re-Animator again tonight. my gosh what a great movie. Weyoun is great, Barbara Crampton is great, Weyoun's friend is okay, the evil Doctor is great. what an amazing movie.

were the sequels any good? I'm guessing not, but that doesn't mean anything. bad movies have souls too. I'll try tracking them down later.

I’m looking forward to watching that again soon, another I haven’t seen in 20+ years.

Looking through what else I can watch among the Last Drive-In eps that strike off ‘watch 7 2nd entries in a franchise’ thing for Hooptober... do Prom Night 2 and/or Slumber Party Massacre 2 warrant watching the originals first or not. I hear the latter is wild, so looking forward.

Slumber Party Massacre 2 is pretty much standalone. it makes reference to a killer from the first, who is not actually in the first.

Prom Night 2 is also completely unconnected from the first. It does have a direct sequel in Prom Night 3, but then the fourth is unrelated again.

2 and 3 are the high points of the series, anyway.

Goodness no, now that wouldn't do at all!
Nightstream virtual fest was really good. They put together a solid line up of movies considering the circumstances. The events and Q&As gave a good vibe to the fest that reminded me of Fantastic Fest. They still have some movies on VOD till the 14th, most of these will end up on streaming soon, but I want to recommend AV: The Hunt. Very tense movie about a woman getting hunted by her family after cheating on her husband. Got some Revenge vibes for sure. Less gore and neon but drat being a woman in Turkey is scary.
