FRIDAY THE 13th Sequel Remake is Dead

Movie Friday the 13th by Joey Paur

It looks like Jason is finally dead, killed by the Hollywood studio system, and I say it’s a bout damn time. There was a little twitter conversation going on in which @Mayroth_Tucker3 asked Platinum Dunes producer Brad Fuller,

Hows the F13 sequel coming along?

Fuller replied via his twitter the following,

It is dead- not happening.

This is kind of surprising news. New Line Cinema and Warner Bros. were looking to release the film on August 13th 2010, and it was going to be shot in 3D. Bloody-Disgusting followed up with Fuller for confirmation and he told them,

Right now there is no movement on Friday 13th: Part 2.

So it sounds like Jason has officially been killed off. As much as I love the old school original Friday the 13th films I didn’t really care for the latest remake, so I really don’t care the movie’s not happening anymore. I'm sure somewhere down the road it will find life again.

What do you think?
