Friday the 13th Remake
First Halloween, and now Friday the 13th?Â
Ugh.
Hollywood is continuing in its current trend of remaking EVERYTHING by rebooting the widely popular and crappily sequeled Camp Crystal Lake horror story. Damian Shannon and Mark Swift (of Freddy v. Jason fame) have been attached to write the script that will go to shoot in early 2008.
My question is: why can’t anyone do an original horror film?
We’ve had remakes of Halloween, Hills Have Eyes, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Black Christmas, When a Stranger Calls, Friday the 13th (upcoming), Prom Night (upcoming), The Fog, Carrie, Amityville Horror, and many others.Â
I wouldn’t be surprised if Sleepaway Camp was next. I mean, who couldn’t see little Dakota Fanning covered in blood, packing an, um, extra tool…
Any other remakes you guys would like to see made? April Fools Day anyone?

Well, there is the long-rumored Evil Dead remake, which would normally give me pause, except that it’s allegedly going to be remade by Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell, with a new cast/tweaked story (new cast, same cabin, I think)
With the budgets Raimi can get now, if he and Campbell are behind it, I say “Hail to the King, baby”
I don’t care if it’s Sam Raimi or Michael Bay. ENOUGH WITH THE REMAKES ALREADY
I will be the first to admit that I enjoy April Fool’s Day. But I was reading my local new website and saw this article about the remake that they are filming in town… http://www.charlotte.com/171/story/293175.html.
