Does Hollywood Really Need Another Friday The 13th Reboot?


https://screenrant.com/friday-13th-reboot-sequel-slasher-franchise-revival-why/

Although fans don't know when they'll see the next Friday the 13th arrive, some are asking whether the slasher franchise needs another sequel at all.

do you ever take a day off from posting links on here?

I've been saying for a while now that they should make another one because it would be the 13th movie in the franchise and they should call it "Friday the 13th Part 13." They could really milk this one.
Maybe also try for a black Jason and a trans girl as well. That would really make some people's heads explode into a constant state of pure rage.

1. Friday the 13th (1980)
2. Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981)
3. Friday the 13th Part 3 (1982) *in 3D*
4. Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter (1984)
5. Friday the 13th: A New Beginning (1985)
6. Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives (1986)
7. Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood (1988)
8. Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan (1989)
9. Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday (1993)
10. Jason X (2002)
11. Freddy vs. Jason (2003)
12. Friday the 13th (2009) *Reboot*
13. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????

It’ll eventually happen, and people will pay to watch it. What’s weird is that I’m not sure how trashy the fan base wants it to be.

I’m the weirdo that wouldn’t mind an artsy-fartsy indie take on the IP….just to change things up. Like, an honest, believable take on the original story. Either that, or an all out smorgasbord of gore 😆

I can't speak for everyone but if I was in charge it would be extremely trashy...like how Part 5 was, but even more wild. I love Part 5. Not just as a Friday the 13th film, but as a slasher in general. Very anti-American to dislike that movie, imo.

Haha…I’d either go indie, or super trashy (which I suspect the fan base would REALLY want). 😆. Ultra violent with a fair share of kink.

I think I’d find anything in between boring. Go full “crazy”, or make it genuinely interesting.

reply

lots of tits, sex, drug use, profanity, and brutal kills...no other way to make it.

reply

Yeah, right?!?!😆 IMO, it’s such an easy fan base to placate. It’s actually bizarre how the reboot screwed up such a simple blueprint. IMO, Jason X actually hit it much better.

IMO, if you’re going to do the “origin story”, then it should be an indie-style slow burning mystery. If you want to do a “Jason Movie”, then all bets are off, and do a gory nuts movie.

reply

Give me the gory, kinky, trash. I never need to see a Bates Motel slow burn retelling of Jason’s life. Never. Don’t try to make a McNugget a masterpiece. It already is in its own way.

reply

When did Jason go to McDonalds to order McNuggets?

reply

Yeah they have to go either real dark or sleazy if they reboot this series again. One smart YouTube creator said they should devote 75% of the movie on Pamela voorhees - a prequel of sorts. I dunno if this will work especially with todays horror fans

reply

I don’t want to see more gore but would be interested to see what Quentin Tarantino could do with a Friday the 13th reboot - I’d love to see what he would do with Jason

reply

We need a reboot of Jason X and have Jason living on Mars killing both humans who immigrated there and the local Martians
