MEDIUM POPCORN LOTS OF BUTTER


Rants, raves, and previews of movies already out and blockbusters on the horizon. Since I'm a huge movie buff I'll let you know, was it worth or would I rather have drank bleach. I recently went to go see FRIDAY THE 13TH. Ever since I saw the machete wielding mad man take a tittie bouncing camper who hid in her sleeping bag and repeatedly slam her into a tree I was hooked. I was very critical of this movie because this is my favorite horror franchise and when you try an remake a classic that's treading on hollowed ground. With this movie of course it stayed true to the concept young Jason drowns due to irresponsible camp counselors, comes back to life or a rampage of murder and revenge. What would any Friday the 13Th be without the breast and sex scenes and references to getting high an wasted updated of course for today's generation (meaning x10). Now the highlight of this movie for me was actually the comical weed, alcohol, and sex references. I feel like there was a hardcore lack of creative killing, of course there was blood, but I need more guts, it seemed like everyone died the same way GIVE ME A BREAK. I feel like they tried to bastardize a classic, I've seen Jason deep fry a guys face an your telling me all he knows how to do is use his machete come on. Here are a few issues I had with this remake
  1. Since when the hell does Jason sprint? We all know Jason has one speed that slow creepy ass walk, WTF "From the makers of the remake of Halloween". This was the biggest slap in the face to the franchise, I just have issues with Jason looking like Usain Bolt.
  2. Please tell me since when the hell did Jason take hostage's, was this supposed to be a hint at terrorism? Lets remember Jason Vorhee's not Osama bin laden
  3. Now I have come to grips with the fact that black people don't survive horror movies and surprisingly the one black guy lasted......to the middle beginning LMAO, but damn after he gets an axe to the back an is screaming for help (mind you everyone in the house hears this) an the girl says we have to help him the reply was we can't the killers out there. You know what I thought "See that's what yo ass get for going on a camping trip with all white people "
  4. So Jason has a secret lair now, with electricity no less, where he stores all his collectibles, what in the hell is Jason going to do with a wheelchair, go for a roll around the forest
  5. Like I said have no problem with all the weed references in the movie, they were the best part.........but we all no, weed is the last thing white people are snorting, I mean smoking, when they go camping............
  6. Since when does Jason have boobie traps set up around the woods, damn McGyver
  7. Jason knows archery? Must have been a summer camp skill he picked up
This was a remake I def. can't approve I feel like so much more could have been done in that hour and a half. That's why I say you gotta be careful when your messing with a classic

  1. Haha, very true. I saw this movie. And I am a very huge scary movie fan. I actually really liked it. But then again, I like pretty much any scary movie that comes out. Yah, the electricity was a good observation. Number 3, you should have already known what was gonna happen to the black dude.... ;o)
