The FRIDAY THE 13th Trailer (Officially) Hacks & Chops Its Way Onto The Internets!!
Merrick here...
Earler this week, we got a sense of this project from a preview aired during Spike TV's Scream Awards (HERE).
Now we have a trailer, available via MySpace in both standard & HD. It's different than what we saw (no dismemberment joke intended) in Spike, so be sure to take a look.
WHAT DO YOU THINK???
Here's a standard embed of the trailer for the lazy or impatient...
So Voorhees is on MySpace and hasn't added me to his "friends list"? Fuck him...
WHAT DO YOU THINK???

+ Expand All
-
Sam Winchester would kick Jason's ass.
-
Hopefully its better than the Texas Chainsaw remakes
-
I'll wait for Netflix.
-
looks promising. i liked that Nispel TCM a lot.
-
God bless Jessica Biel's titties. Just sayin.
-
Which Jason movie was it when he just rips off a girl's head? NOw, that was funny... Instead of using a knife or spear, he just rips her head off as if he only wanted to break her neck.
-
because camp crystal lake looks old and grown over. the only people that should die there are teens dumb enough to go check out the old ruins of camp crystal lake where that kid drowned and then people started dying mysteriously so they closed it and..oh...neverm ind..there's your plot
-
...as most would know that the mother was the killer in the first movie. Jason didn't appear until part 2.
-
Someone had to say it.
-
Fuck. In 20 years there will be nothing to remake anymore because there will be no original movies left.
-
it's obvious in that last scene that Jason holds back and is not going for the kill...the way he swings the machete you can tell he pulls back at the last second...new Jason is more compassionate and introspective...damn you Bay!!
-
It's in their nature. and as i mentioned in the other thread. They're not really for us.
and everyone who keeps mentioning how it's not a remake cause the Mom was the killer. Dude. we get it. You know stuff. Get over it.That's obviously not the point. -
Hell, with luck, it may even be as great as "Leprechaun in da Hood" or those DVD sequels to Hellraiser! Go, Michael Bay! I'm rooting for a Platinum Dunes Exorcist with Dakota Fanning and Ashton Kutcher next year.
-
one more thing...it's a common misconception that Jason was not the killer in Part 1...not true!!...if you watch the movie you'll notice one scene where he picks up a hitchhiker...when she gets in the car she says "thanks mister"...meaning Jason is driving...she later gets scared and runs out of the car into the woods where Jason follows and kills her...stupid Scream movie screwed with people's minds into thinking that Jason's mother was the killer in Part 1...the mother only shows at the end to try and kill that last skank
-
We all know they're just mediocre slasher films so I can't say I'm against this. Plus Jason moving faster than a snail's pace might actually jolt someone for a change.
-
You and I both need to get a life for even discussing this... But Jason's mother was the killer, period. She was pretty butch though so maybe the girl made an honest mistake. OR maybe the filmmakers were lazy, cheating fucks. Ding ding ding! Nobody knew this cheesy horror movie highlighting newly enhanced make-up effects was going to turn into a franchise. I'm pretty sure they were "making it up" as they went along. Same as George Lucas.
-
Actually, she said "Thanks alot" not "Thanks mister".
-
like, the story will be 'hey, let's go make out and skinny dip at that old abandoned camp where that retarded kid drowned and his mom snapped and started killing everybody like in the late 70's or early 80's...it's totally awesome and we can go fuck and smoke some weed there..'then they get there and the 'retarded kid' turns out to not be dead..or at least...gone.
-
... is that the only thing they really do to make them different from the originals is make the killer or killers look dirty and grimy. Just because they didn't take a bath or wash their hockey mask does not make them scary
-
Look, I am a lifelong Friday fan. I love me some Jason. And for the most part, I am totally against remake/reboot-itis that is infecting Hollywood. This reboot however is an exception to the rule. Let's face it, F13 was never on par with the original Chainsaw or Halloween. It is a classic series, but not one of the movies - as much as I love them - is a classic stand alone work. Furthermore, Jason has been put through so much silliness already - fighting psychics, punching Manhattanite's heads off, becoming a body-jumping demon-worm and crawling up his sisters cootch, fighting Freddy, going to space and becoming "super Jason" - that a nice, back-to-basics, Jason-kills-teens-at-Camp-Crystal-Lake style F13 movie is just what I would like to see. I personally love the shot of him coming at that girl with the machete at the end of the trailer. Looks pretty savage.
-
also an enormous fan of the series. this movie appears to be trying to make Jason a bit scary. If this kind of thing is not your bag, then it's not your bag.
-
jason wouldn't pull a 'punch' like that! this guy barely even swings his arm in that last shot
-
Horror these days lacks imagination. Fail.
-
That was Part 6. And I only know that cuz I watched it last week.
-
watch them both again. Friday is a FAR scarier and superior film. Just watch them both again. Halloween had my girlfriend and I laughing ( oh noes!!!!! Myers is up agaon and rattling the closet door?!?!)while Friday actually served it's purpose.

-
What ever happened to that Descent sequel? Anyone?
-
It's a Hard R for Graphic Violence and Nudity. I know people who have seen this sucker, and I keep hearing that it's surprisingly good. But that isn't hard to achieve since (as it's been stated above) none of the films individually was a classic. I heard WB is pretty happy to have inherited this from New Line since the test screenings were wildly positive. I'm both glad and relieved. I can't wait to see this as my fave movies were 2, 3, and 4.
-
For the first time I laughed at his stupid cartoon in the left hand corner. That sequence was the creepiest thing about "Prince of Darkness".
-
And so too will be this, I fear.
-
the Descent sequel is being filmed as we type. well maybe they're done and in post production now but yeah, it is coming. bloody disgusting had an interview with the one returning actress a few weeks ago. so its not a rumor or a "maybe", the movie is coming.
-
I just watched the trailer and was going to say the same thing. It's either Jason is pulling back or it's terribly choreographed.
-
he was re-winding back up for more power...:)
-
If there was never an original it might be ok, AND I actually kinda liked the sequel. It worked better cause they weren't trying to emulate anything. Which is often the problem with remakes. And it had more R Lee Ermy. which is always gold.
-
...wanted to hate it like all the other remakes but that hockey mask just does it for me! all those years growing up in the video store and seeing that mask on the cover of all these films i couldn't watch turned me in to a jason freak when i finally saw them all when i was about 15. 3d is the best!!!! if only i could've actually seen it in 3d :-)
-
Which is more than I can say for pts. 5 and 9.
-
The Halloweens and Friday The 13ths of the '80s were simply the "Saws" of their day. An easy method to seperate teenagers from their movie going money. So the producers (chewing on fat cigars, of course) thought they needed to send Jason To NY, or space just to "jazz it up". This remake is simply another method to seperate teens from their money, and those nostalgic enough to remember the original. Shakespeare it ain't.
-
i said this movie was made for 13-20 year olds, (which i thought was smart, even if it wasnt for me.) But they did a job with this trailer. I'm a little interested now.
-
*they did a 'good' job with this trailer.
-
Dean Winchester could kick Jason's ass.
-
son of a bitch, why doesn't the bastard just remake everything he looks at.
Everybody chant: Down with Platinum Dunes! Down with Platinum Dunes! -
Would stop selling shit to Micheal Bay to FUCK up.
-
Yeah, 3d is great. I mean it's where he gets the mask! Wish I could've seen it in 3d myself, but I think the first time I saw it was when I was 10 years old or so on USA - surprisingly they showed it uncut back in the 80's. I am really partial to 2,3 and 4 as the best of the series, although I do have a soft spot for 6, 7 and Jason Goes to Hell (which I think is kind of underrated).
The thing about this trailer that I think is great is that it just looks like another one of those first four film, only with a budget and some slick lighting. As amazing as 2,3 and 4 were, they did have terrible scripts and the acting was mostly sub par. They really only realized their true greatness in the kills and the inevitable 20 minute long Jason-chases-virgin-through-the-woods finale. I have hope that this one can live up to (or down to) that tradition. I really hope Nispel doesn't put the main girl in a wet t-shirt the entire film though. I may lose some people on this, but one of my biggest complaints about the TCM remake (aside from the fact that it should have never been made) was that it is impossible to be scared when distracted by glistening cleavage and erect nipples poking through wet cotton. I dunno, maybe it's just me. -
I'm sure hollywood has simply realized by now that "rebooting" a franchise is more profitable than "sequelling"
-
...but every slasher needs a good rack :-) personal fave = monica keena in FvsJ.
-
THE FINAL CHAPTER (cough-cough) was one of the first horror films I saw growing up. It freaked me out and I've been a Savini freak since. Still love that flick. Welcome back, Jason, especially since I loved the TCM remake. It was mean like the original. Also, Jessica Biel: Goooooood!
-
and so to catch up I watched every death in the series (well - 1-8 anyway) in a single youtube video. If there was a "plot" supposedly stringing these scenes together...well, I'm pretty sure I'm in no way disadvantaged by not getting it. This installment looks pretty by-the-numbers to me. Expect cheap scares, a few pairs of tits, some bad CGI (possibly on the tits), a bit of bullet-time and a dissapointingly squid-free ending.
-
Ignorance must be bliss, no?
-
I agree. For sheer jaw-dropping gore, I think THE FINAL CHAPTER is the best. It's still silly and sloppily made like they all are, but the effects (and thus the scares) are fantastic. After some lame "chapters", they put the shock back into shock value - and I'm just enough of a perennial 13 year-old to love it.
-
Come on AICN, other websites have it!! Put it up !!!!
It looks incredible! -
I really don't mind this flick, the last Jason movie was only a few years back and FvsJ was also fun.
Especially when that fucker from Destiny's Child got fucked up into a tree. Awesome!!!
Anyway, this looks interesting and Bruticus has ZERO taste, kind of like the dipshits who were laughing at the Exorcist when it was finally re-released in the UK after a long banning.
"Oh it had shitty FX!" And??? What about the power of the subject matter, great performances and scary as shit mind-fuck sequences??
"Wah??"
Fucking braindead twats! Fuck you Bruticus, Halloween is by far the better crafted, creepier and most influential of the two. -
these remakes are such hollywood shit, as opposed to the originals which were low-budget, had amazing style, and were made by people who cared about the genre and weren't just out to make money. These remakes are soulless crap made for todays teenagers- who watch shit like the OC" and the "Hills"
-
and think it is actually a POSITIVE, and well HELP to sell this movie...of course, stones have never been his problem. more having a perpetually 14-year old brain. that's a big problem...
-
Friday the 13th in the late 2000's = "Haven't I seen this before?" Don't get me wrong, this could still be an ok flick. But it will never catch the "lightning in a bottle" feel of the original.
-
Obviously that statement is a joke. Good one!
-
And it looks like he's doing some weird skipping shit, too. Die a horrible death then rot in Hell Michael Bay!
-
That scene where Jason is sliding down that machete is gold. I think that's one of the best practical horror effects ever put on screen.
Just try to watch that part without cringing. -
What logo are you talking about? The hockey mask or what?
-
..that they don't even make those kinds of hockey masks anymore? Where did he even find that damn thing?
-
Jason's gonna kill some people while wearing a hockey mask. That sounds neat.
-
Christ. As if the whole thing wasn't gay enough.
-
And he was always finding em! And then sometimes they would have an axe mark in them, after his axe mark mask was destroyed! Gotta love it.
-
Fucking head-squeeze-eyeball-pop death freaked me out when I was 14.
-
so you better listen to him.
-
what are you talking about? Jason's mom is clearly the killer. She picks up the girl Annie and kills her and at the end of the film she shows up in the same exact car to try and kill the last girl. And Annie's dead body is in the car. Explain that? I don't recall her saying Thanks Mister and someone else already argued that point saying she simply said Thank you.
-
Tiny Lister as Ghetto Jason.
-
Calling Friday the 13th superior to Halloween. All the film was about was teens being killed while having sex. It had a decent story concerning Jason and his Mom but Carpenter's Halloween is the pinnacle of horror films. It's greatness lies in its simplicity. It has a better score, it's shot better and has a lead character who is actually interesting. Plus it has Dr. Loomis who is beyond badass. Also, it perfectly captures the spirit of Halloween. All this and I haven't even mentioned Michael Myers who is the greatest horror villain of all time. He's such a simply character who is evil just for the sake of being evil. Friday the 13th just relies on its Tom Savini special effects. Halloween relies on mood and atmosphere.
-
There was no Friday the 13th in the late 70's. The first one came out in 80. F13 was NEVER new or shocking. I love the series, but it was always an imitator - not an originator.
-
Kane Hodder, although perhaps the most famous, is not the definitive Jason. He didn't step into the role until Part 7.
-
My wife and I have watched all the Friday the 13ths so we're obligated to see this. We have no choice. Besides, it'll be interesting to see a Friday the 13th with better production values.
-
Name one of these recent shit remakes that come anywhere near the originals. Would it be the Black Xmas remake? Wicker Man? House of Wax? which of of them have any of coolness of the original?
-
Well said. That's one of the best descriptions of Halloween I've ever read.
-
True, but he played him the most, and the majority of fans believe him to be the definitive Jason. I tend to agree. Plus his ad-libbed sleeping bag kill is one of the greatest of all time. Check it out.

Those Savini gore effects still hold up today. No wonder people were shitting themselves in 1980.

Good old 88

jump after 113 as the whole boat sunk with most of the school on board.
-
It's just been brought to my attention by other TBer's that there is an impostor here. HerbWestAustin, can't you come up with an original name?
-
some loser calling himself "Grammaton Cleric" pops up once in a while.
-
But out of respect for the original I would have called it something different, like "Crystal Lake." Although if I had done it, Jason would be a lot more monstrous and there would be considerably more brutality than typical slasher-murder fare.
-
Yeah, I can never understand these posers.
-
It is pretty pathetic. Screw em.
-
but it does. Although I haven't seen him pop up in a month so maybe he gave up, wised up, and came back with his own name.
-
I saw Friday the 13th like 4 hours ago and it was like seeing it for the first time because I only saw it when I was too young to remember. The film was pretty good and the 13th series is alot of dumb fun. But that's all it is. Part 6, Jason Lives is my favorite. My real name is Jason, as well, so Mr. Voorhess will always have a special place in my heart. I definitely feel he's the most intimidating of the famous slasher trio.
-
when I said agreed I meant to express how Tom Savini's effect still hold up today. The man is a legend.
-
Yeah, I would agree. I just hope they don't fuck up this movie.
-
They are the best even to this day...his former student Greg Nicotero comes very close though. I think Savini's work on Day of the Dead will always be his best.
-
Funny its like Bay raped you mom or something relax its a movie and its friday the 13th its not the Godfather its not Star Wars it movie about guy in mask killin topless blondes its the same movie they could put part 10 after it still have the same movie
-
I just don't see how you can call Kane Hodder the definitive Jason when there were 4 others before him. I'm not saying he does a bad job but he didn't define the character. The character was already 8 years old and clearly established in the mainstream consciousness by the time Kane got behind the mask. He may have done the role the most times, but only after the series had already jumped the shark. IMHO anyway.
-
I really wish AICN would get with the 21st century and add a fucking edit button.
-
...but to try to insinuate that the Friday The 13th series was not "just out to make money" and "made for todays teenagers?" Come on. That's what it's always been about and always will be. And that's totally cool.
-
God forbid he moves like a person and not a fucking Zombie Robot like the old Jason's did.
This one looks like a bad ass evil hunter on fucking HGH who's gonna split some fools in half! -
the nubile 'teen' chicks getting naked and smoking pot was a brilliant moment in the history of cinema.
what? i loved it, sue me. this will suck as does every other remake, so do what you know is right and DON'T GIVE THE COCKSUCKERS YOUR MONEY
cruise control for cool, baby. -
...someone needs to topple saw as the current halloween blockbuster. although i can't wait for V tonight!
-
That´s whay he runs. This is a remake of Friday the 13th, after all.

And that, you cannot deny. I am a Friday Fan and that trailer has got my pumped. Jason looks great, the music is spot on. And the voice over set the mood perfectly. I just hope recent reports of Pam Vorhees and little Jason being cut are bogus. This is a tribute to the first three films and it would be fitting to have her in it. It's her story too.
-
what of it!
-
AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
You stalking me? That's the second time you posted AMAZING after one of my posts. I'm locking my door, ok!
-
Leprechaun in da hood is a fucking masterpiece. It's one of the funniest things ever. Back 2 Da hood sucks a fat one though.
-
for this shite.
-
Hey, to each their own. Still, I think it was dumb for the producers not to put Hodder in for Freddy vs. Jason. The fans wanted it, and the movie would have made some more money. I don't know why they punked out.
-
being a humourless basement dwelling virgin must be bliss, no? Don't be a dick - I realise the Ft13th series is buckling under the weight of its rich multi-leveled narrative and unurpasssed character development (girl gets fucked, the boy gets killed, girl discovers his head right before she gets killed... did that cover it?)
Anyho... see you in the "Twilight" line on opening night. Bitch. -
Originality?
-
When the machines rise up. I want them to go back in time and kill Michael Bay before he starts bastardizing all the classic horror films of the 70's and 80's. Forget about John Connor...
-
nice...that was hilarious, i especially enjoyed the last insult...PER-FECT
-
Halloween just wasn't scary. Myers was evil just to be evil? Who cares? That doesn't make the film any more scary. I knew someone would bring up the Halloween score. And notice you mention it first? As if the score is the saving grace of the movie. If a movie is reliant on a score the script is clearly lacking something. But even the score, it's far too repetitive for my tastes, not to mention predictable. And i'd take Jason's chi-chi-chi-ha-ha-ha- as a more interesting and scary sound to be played over the halloween score in a heartbeat. There is barely any mystery to Halloween, he's crazy... and he's really strong. Jason coming out of the lake at the end of Friday throws the whole story for a loop and is far more creepy than ANYTHING that happened in Halloween. Name one scene in halloween that was actually scary. I dare you.
-
Is such a really great moment. Scared the crap out of me and still kind of does no matter how hard I try to brace myself. I loved how the jumping motif repeated itself. The first 4 movies and then not again till part 9 if I recall correctly.
-
. . .is actually a horror movie that could use a remake. I mean, the original barely even had Jason and wasn't even a good movie. . . none of them have a reputation for being good. . . the Manhattan one is mildly enjoyable at a cheese level, but I think this idea has potential. A modern retelling of the story, complete with hockey mask, a young cast, professional production, and Nispel there to give it a nasty, contemporary edge. I'm interested.
-
I don't know if this series was begging for a remake, but what the hell. Anything has to be an improvement, right? Ft13 movies are a guilty pleasure. There's something viscerally satisfying about seeing this big force of nature massacre a buncha stupid sheep.
-
I love the ambiance of the trailer, but they should have added the 'Legend of Camp Blood' subtitle, so smart folks won't think it's a remake or follow-up to that horribly realized FREDDY vs JASON film that extremely talented Ronnie Yu wasted his time on. Jason never drowned and was NEVER afraid of water. Mrs. Voorhees only believed he drowned.
-
I'm not going to argue with you over and over because this is all a matter of opinion.
Halloween doesn't have scares and that's why I love the film. It's about mood and atmosphere, not about cheap scares. The ending scare in the original Friday the 13th was extremely effective but it totally threw the narrative out of whack. Halloween did not have any great scares but when he jumps out of the closet and kills the guy, that was scary. Also when after Jamie Lee stabs him with the hanger and she sends the kids for help, and Michael is lying there, then slowly rises. Fucking terrifying. And that's what Halloween is to me. Terrifying. Friday the 13th is just a set up for each kill. Is Halloween simple? Yes. But I've said before that's why I and many others adore it.
And as far as the score is concerned, I don't think there's a debate about which is more iconic. I like the Friday the 13th theme song but it's really only one theme followed by the sound effect you love so much. Carpenter's score has so much going on and it's so much a part of that film. And that's why I love Halloween. All these elements of film-making were brought together. It is what it is because of the sum of its many parts.
But like I said, this is all a matter of opinion but I feel I gave much more valid reasons of why Halloween is superior. It has so much more to offer minus the scares you desire. -
When I was a kid and saw these movies they both scared the hell out of me. Now, many assert that Halloween has the dubious honor of starting the whole "stalk n' slasher" genre, and that Ft13 just rode in on it's coattails, followed by a horde of imitators. But these are the blueprint, both scary- just in differing ways. Halloween will always be in my Top 5. It had a distinctive mood and atmosphere of genuine terror of the unknown: a malevolent, implacable antagonist who's process is so alien to us, it can't be fathomed, and some semi-relatable victims. The gut-level chill of Ft13 (and some of it's many, many sequels) is that we have an again highly motivated killer who's creed is "You're in my backyard now, bitch! And there is no escape." It's ending is one of the best sequences to employ Carrie's nightmare finish ever used. Both seemed to have the same Nixonian morality "have-sex-and-die" undercurrent that would dominate many later horror movies.
-
he ran a few times in part 2.
-
As much as I like to see the big fella plow through mofos like a tank, I guess Jason'd have to boogie every now and then just to meet his quota of painfully ignorant, horny camp counselors.
-
Isn't the title irrelevent by now? Doesn't Jason kill pretty much whenever the hell he wants to? I guess Apeshit Mongoloid Killing Machine wouldn't pack in that all-important teenybopper demographic.

The only reason for repeat TCM remake watches.
