    Bay revives 'Friday' for New Line

    Jason is coming back. Michael Bay and his Platinum Dunes are gearing up to remake "Friday the 13th" for New Line Cinema. The "Friday the 13th" series began in 1980, with Sean S. Cunningham directing the first feature, released by Paramount Pictures. After eight films the slasher series, featuring the masked killer Jason Voorhees, moved to New Line, which revived the franchise with "Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday" in 1993. New Line's most recent installment, "Freddy vs. Jason," in which Voorhees faced off against Freddy Krueger from the "Nightmare on Elm Street" series, was released in 2003, grossing more than $82 million domestically.

    Why do they feel the need to remake it? Jason just got successfully relaunched a couple of years ago.

    The only thing that intrigues me about this one is the money Bay has behind him.

    Well if you happen to be Drew Barrymore in a tight sweater and blond wig it means you don't get killed.

    I actually thought that The Island wasn't too bad but I also had no expectations either.

    Friday the 13th was a pretty lame horror film to begin with (although the gore is fairly creative and the final scene is well executed) and I wouldn't trust Michael Bay to improve it any. But as long as they feel they can make several tens of millions of dollars by recycling old and tired movie franchises, Hollywood won't give us anything new.

    People who like horror films should stick to Japanese films - they're actually scary (or at least freaky) and they're much more creative than anything coming out of America right now.

    Friday the 13th was a dumb and boring horror movie. The might as well remake it, because they couldn't do much worse than the original.
