For some reason, I'm pretty excited about the upcoming Friday the 13th remake, that will be hitting the megaplexes this weekend. There is something about that crew, the group behind the Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake, that gets me pumped. That film, as lame as some parts are, truly got what made the original so frightening. The neo-documentary style, the idea of a road trip gone a rye, and the sheer creepiness of backwoods families. However, you can't say the same for films like Rob Zombie's Halloween. As much as I admire Zombie for his first two films, House of 1,000 Corpses and Devil's Rejects, Halloween really just missed. It gave an unnecessary back story to Mike Meyers, the back story was also cliche, and the bloodless pallet of the original was revamped into a torture porn slaughterhouse. That all said, it looks like the sequel will be here faster than we expected. Check out the teaser poster below...
Go see something good!
