UPDATED- AICN & The Alamo Drafthouse: A Summer Camp Nightmare featuring FREDDY VS JASON with the real Freddy & Jason!

Published at:  Jul 23, 2003 5:36:04 AM CDT

Want CAMP HACKNSLASH STUFF? CLICK HERE! The Art for this came at the last minute - so these items won't be at the event, but if you want them, to remember the event - here they are! ENJOY!





Hey folks, Harry here -- Here's the latest information! CLICK HERE TO BE ENLIGHTENED ABOUT THE SLAUGHTER!














Hey folks, Harry here... Tim League and I sometimes spend months concocting schemes to make movie going more special and insane than we've made it before. Last year, we threw an All-Night Horror-thon at an abandoned Insane Asylum, with a real graveyard, a real prison with searchlights and a very very early screening of CABIN FEVER along with quite a few other goodies. It was surely a night to remember. This time, Tim and I are deliberately attempting to be more ambitious than last time....



I've been covering the development of FREDDY VS JASON on AICN for a full 6 years now, and I've known about the concept that there could be one for far longer than that. It has been one of those Fanboy Masturbation Projects that has seemingly always been dangled in front of us, but now.... Now it is here. Now the film is in our grasps!













Tim and I didn't want to unveil FREDDY VS JASON in any sort of normal way. HELL... We didn't even want to do it in the vaunted halls of one of the many Alamo Drafthouses popping up around the world. No... This was too special. The second the word came back from test screenings that FREDDY VS JASON was exactly what it was supposed to be... two gore icons tearing the shit out of one another with all the glee and joy and sidebar teens like sprigs of parsley... well... That got Tim and Mine's noodles a-cookin'!



We could find ELM street in Austin and do a big block party, but that would just be lame. HOWEVER, going out into the Hill Country to one of those creepy as hell Summer Camp facilities... Out in the woods... Water for scary shit to come out of... Cabins to die in... Yes... A Summer Camp Massacre-thon!



Then we contacted NEW LINE with our idea. You see, we wanted to have FREDDY & JASON out in the woods with us... We wanted them there to kill the fornicators and potheads... Yes! We want those that sleep this night to die a most grisly death! New Line was delighted with the concept and have decided to give us the co-operation of their talent and their film. So AUGUST 9th became the date!













This will be THE way to see the film. Sometimes, Horror Geeks Must Be INSANE! This is one of those times. A Summer Camp for HORROR GEEKS at CAMP HACKNSLASH - in dorky T-shirts and dorky shorts! The way Summer Camp was meant to be endured. Doing incredibly dorky things and then enjoying the most insane of Summer Camp Entertainment!



A chance to see the film with Freddy & Jason (aka Robert Englund and Ken Kirzinger!) A chance to gather with an audience of absolutely INSANE DEPRAVED HORROR FANS IN THE WOODS... ALL NIGHT LONG... AND SURVIVE???? Here's Tim's rundown of the event... Are you ready? I'll see you there!

















Freddy vs Jason Premiere: Alamo Summer Camp
    


Ain't It Cool News presents:

A Rolling Roadshow Production:

The Ultimate Summer Camp Experience

All-Day Summer Camp Fun with an An all-night Summer Camp Horror Marathon

Saturday, August 9, all day, all night.

Tickets on sale now!

We're not going to fill you in on all of the secrets of this highlight of the July-August calendar, but suffice it to say, we plan to top the experience of last year's horror all-nighter at the insane asylum. Campers will arrive at Camp Alamo at 2 PM on Saturday for check-in, be divided into tribes, each with a camp counsellor. The day activities will include arts and crafts, capture the flag, a nature walk, naptime, a nutritious supper and breakfast, a tribal counsel, a bonfire, storytelling, smores and a quadruple feature of balls-to-the-wall horror films with camp slaughter as a theme. The evening will also be the world premiere theatrical screening of Freddy vs. Jason, with Freddy and Jason (Robert Englund and Ken Kirzinger) live in person. This is important to note, because all fornicators and sleepers will be butchered.

Tickets are $40 include:


A nutritious supper

Fruit punch

Camp T-Shirt

Camp Tube Socks (must be worn up to the knee-wear your own short shorts!)

A nutritious breakfast

smores

campfire stories

Q&A by the stars, producer and director of Freddy vs. Jason

and a slew of horror trailers

Hot Dog Eating Contest

Dizzy Izzy

3 legged race

Balloon toss

Sack race

Egg toss

Mask decorating

Wet T-Shirt Contest

Bong Building

Duct Tape Wallet making

Tubing

Snipe Hunt

Dodge Ball

and more, more, more!


This is the biggest, most ambitious Rolling Roadshow event to date. Tickets will go fast, so reserve yours early. Tickets are $40 and are on sale now. There are a limited number of spots at camp, so get yours today!


The T-Shirt design has been selected! Click here to check out the winning design and name: CAMP HACKNSLASH. The pictured image is the counsellor shirt, camper shirts will be powder blue. Thanks to Neil Cook who won the T-shirt design contest and James Fotinos who came up with the camp name!













Check in is at 2 PM, activities start at 3 PM. The location of the camp will be emailed to everyone one week prior to camp, and posted on the web the morning of camp. Camp is within 20 miles of Austin. We are keeping the location secret to avoid gate crashers.

    Kane, half-brother of the Undertaker! At least, he wore a mask until a few weeks ago, at which time he removed it to show the world a horrible haircut! Members of AICN could talk for days about whether or not this was a wise move by the WWE if AICN would only give us a WWE Talkback.

    Prof. Griffin at Camp Hacknslash

    by profgriffin

    Greetings Tim and Harry.

    Prof. Griffin here. (The ONE AND ONLY television horror host in Texas.) The buzz is-a-going.. It seems word of this event is starting to reach all corners of the world. One concern is....there has been NO MENTION of Prof. Griffin and the cast of The Midnight Shadow Show. We have been asked by the Alamo planning team to be at Camp Hacknslash (great name by the way!) to host trivia and are providing entertainment. (Sketches, Song Parodies, and even Fire Dancing!!!)

    Please be sure that you mention Prof. Griffin's Midnight Shadow Show as being present at the event.

    The newest episode of Prof. Griffin's Midnght Shadow Show is a tribute to Jason and Freddy and will premiere THIS Friday at 11:00 on Time Warner Cable Channel 16 and repeat next Friday as well.

    My website has also been dedicated to the Freddy vs. Jason premiere and a link has been made to the Alamo for fans of The Midnight Shadow Show to purchase tickets.

    Please contact me ASAP and lets discuss what we have planned for the presentation/program.


    Rest In Peace,
    Prof. Griffin

    Why dosen't any one in England every get the 'jacobs' to organise an event like these. I know it's tacky and over blown and very sterotypically American, but hey.. we seem to follow every other example the show us (fast food,fat people,bombing innocent people, wolrd domination in the name of freedom! ..) so why not summit like this? Why sit in a sticky cinema with crap audio when we could be sat in the woods..cold,wet,hungry and shitting yerself at the thought of getting up and going the toilet on ya own!!!
    I suggest a showing of Dog Soldiers in the woods with tents..or American werewolf in London out in the middle of the Yorkshire Moors..class.

    I've been to many AICN and Alamo events while I was a college student in Texas, before I moved back to Mexico City. BUTT-NUMB-A-THON 3 had more women than men attend. The same is true for many of there special screenings. And many are babes from Austin's Avant-Guarde, and music and art community, so knock off this fan boy nerd bullshit... these are hip, fun events... at the Insane Horror All Nighter, there were actually people getting laid on the Hospital's embalming tables... True Fact!

    Bong Building?

    by wizardx

    Does New Line know about THAT one? I mean, it's not like it's THAT hard to hook a tube up to a coke bottle... Are we going to go out into the woods to carve a log into a really BIG bowl, just like our revered ancestors did, or something? And do we have to bring our own baggies? Or is this just some massive trick so we're build our bong, use it, and then get hacked to ribbons while slowly saying "whhooooaaahhhh." I don't trust you! You're out to get me! Ah god, the paranoia! AAAAAAHHHHHHH

    SAVE A FILM MAKER ! (Seriously) A FILM MAKER NEEDS OUR HELP!

    by the tao of joe

    Talk backers. SOme of you might remember some of my earlier posts. My name is The Tao of Joe, also known as Joe Scott. I am a film geek living in Raleigh, North Carolina. I am writing in an attempt to appeal to you all, to try and help my friend Damon Packard. I have never met Damon Packard, but at the insistance of Film Threat Magazine, I purchased a copy of Damon's movie "Reflections of Evil" on a home made dvd. The movie is a zany look at our twisted paranoid life we live in, and I did enjoy it to say the least. After buying this dvd, I have found that Damon has hit upon hard times. You see, Damon is about to be kicked out of his house, because he is broke. He speant all of his money trying to make movies and he is trapped. No joke. THe man will be homeless in a matter of days. BUT we can help him. How you might ask? By purchasing his movies online. Damon is selling copies of Reflections of Evil, as well as his hilarious new opus "The Untitled Star Wars Mockumentary" for 10 bones each on vhs. Its a great deal. Of the two films, I would recomend for you guys the star wars one, because it says alot of stuff about star wars that we have all been saying here on this website for a while (I.E. George Lucas died in the 80's). Please people. Buy his movies. Either one, or like I did, both. Buy both of his movies. THey are both good, especially if you invite some friends over and have a few beers. For information on how to buy this movie, go to (http://www.reflectionsofevil.com/pageFM.htm) You wont be sorry that you did. Just think, if you do this, you can show the movie to your friends and say HEY, I HELPED THIS GUY NOT BE HOMELESS!

    (Harry, Father Geek, Robo Geek, et al, I know this isn't exactly kosher to cross post, but I need to try and get as many people aware of this as possible as it is an emergency. I will risk banishment if necesarry, but I want to try and actually help another human being.)

    by jasondkeldar

    Spend your time waxing poetic about the latest tractor pull and how "G88D88N Hollywood" is ruining that masterpiec of cinemtography that was TCM. TCM was a great flick, but UNLIKE "Psycho" could stand a remake, if for nothing else but to make a watchable print of the film again. Even the transfers from the oriinal masters look like hell compared to original look of the film. People campaign for money to save prints of obscure twenties/thrities/forties films because their prints are degenerating, but the age of populist cineam, the sixties and seventies where underground cinema was not controlled by scholck writes working for bad production comanies, but rather home to the likes of Corman and Hooper and Lucas(back then) and Spielberg and Howard. These films suffer from inattention to the prints' quality due to proliferation of video copies, but unfortunately video deteriorates if stored improperly(Yes this means you folks who lay your tapes flat when you take them out of the VCR--techies at TV and production studios included). I have not seen a decent copy of this or most other sixties-seventies B-movies in a long while, and many of the A titles are suffering as well. Someone call for help for them please ??

It's brilliant for marketting, but I haven't paid for a movie since I started working at this theater, and I don't plan on paying $8.50 to go see the second ending to this movie. Can anyone say DVD?

Decent horror year, if not for Boyle's self-proclaimed masterpiece, which was pretty damn overrated. Wish I could be at that FvJ thing. Oh well. Until next time, I remain rocking hardcore.

    I hope this event doesn't mean Tim and Harry won't do another dusk-til-dawn this year. That should be an annual tradition.

    I first saw the trailer for this puppy wait waiting for "Matrix Reloaded". An asute young man said it all when the trailer was over, in that same voice that Maya used to announce Third Impact:

    Ordering question

    by cthulhu_waits

    A quick question for those of you who have ordered tickets for Hacknslash. When I filled out the form and clicked the "buy tickets" button, it didn't take me to any sort of confirmation screen or anything, is this what it's supposed to do? I would just reorder to make sure, but the tickets are non-refundable and if I got my 3 tickets I don't wanna order 3 more. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I think the prople who made this movie..

    by adus

    are going to be surprised at the indifference this is going to be met with. No disrepect meant to Ronny Yu "Bride of Chucky" was a fun piece of genre filmmaking. "The Nightmare on Elm Street" flicks had some imaginaton and dark humor to them and remain a guilty pleasure of mine. The "Friday the 13" francise however IMO are all worthless crap. However they by and large made bookoo bucks at the box office and that's all that matters right? My point is I don't think most people will, oh sure, there are die-hard fans who have been dreaming of this for years who will definitely see it but I don't think the average movie goer will bother. So New Line may make a bit of a profit but I don't think it's going to be anywhere near the "summer event" they're trying to hype it to be. As far as a future francise feautring both Freddy and Jason goes, well I'll wouldn't be surprised after all there those felt "Urban Legend" deserved a sequel. Having said that I have to admit that the campout sounds like an absolute blast. So have fun.

    Just came back from camp HacknSlash

    by darthlebowski

    I'm back.. i'm tired but I had one of the best movie going experiences in my life last night/this morning.

    Just to let all doubters out there know... Freddy Vs Jason is the best Nightmare movie and best Friday movie all rolled in one which includes my personal favorites the dream warriors and Friday the 13th 3D. I'm a fan of both movie series with Jason being slightly above Freddy in my preference only because he was first.

    Ronnie Yu made this movie to satisfy every horror geeks desire. To be honest when I first thought of a Freddy vs Jason duel, I wasn't too keen on the idea. But OMG this movie blows away all expectations and some. The blood omg the blood, 3000 gallons of blood Ronnie Yu said he used. For Jason fans the Rave scene is the shit. For Freddy fans the stoner scene is cool. Fans of either or both will be overjoyed after seeing this movie. This is not just another fun slasher flick like Jason X was.. this was more than that. It was pure action from beginning to end. I didn't even have a chance to breathe. It was like I said the definitive Friday and Nightmare movie all woven together wonderfully well. Sorry can't say who wins. =)


    After the movie Robert Englund, Ronnie Yu, and that new Jason guy were there answering questions.

    Robert was the most charasmatic of the 3. The new jason guy.. he was just happy as hell to be there coming from just being a stunt man. Ronnie Yu was cool as hell too... he knows what we like as horror/slasher film fans.



    Besides the kick-ass JvF movie we got to watch one great classic: sleepaway camp. We got to speak with "Ricky" after the movie, no Angela though she was sick. When asked about the obviously intentional homoerotic nature of the film, Ricky(Jonathan his name was) basically said he thought it wasn't homoerotic at all because he knows the director is crazy or something... anyway he kinda avoided the question. I would like a "straight" answer on it one day. He did say filming of the Sleepaway Camp 4 will begin filming in September and both Ricky and Angela will reprise their roles... hey i might watch that one.
    Madman: Madman Marz as he's called like to behead or hang people... why he chooses to do either is totally random. I guess it depends on if he has a rope or an axe handy at the time. Good for unintentional laffs but pure crap... this the king of the long drawn out setup for a kill. I mean looong. I slept through one chase scene and still woke up in time to see her get killed.

    Hot Wet American Summer:
    hmm only got to watch about 3/4 of the movie until we got rained out but it wasn't entirely funny. It had some good parts... and the vintage 80s look was definitely there. As well as homages to classic 80s summercamp films. But maybe it was the unreality of it all that pulled me out too often. Anyway, I'm not sure if I even wanna see the last 1/4 of that movie.


    As for the camp itself.. it was a blast- dodge ball was the highlight... although sloshball looked like great fun. The Wet Tshirt cotest was going great until some guy went up and had to show off his frank and beans. Which of course caused the camp owners to say "end of contest" pretty quick... too bad because there were some busty bosoms about to be shaken. oh well.

    Overall the trip was well worth it and those that went all know they had a great time. If they ever have something like this again... I'm signing up and bringing even more friends!
