Friday the 13th (2009)

Yo. I have been gone for a second. Let's try this again.

I saw Friday the 13th the first week it was out. My roommate really wanted to see it and I was mildly interested as I did actually enjoy the Halloween remake. So there was a little bit of hope that this movie wouldn't suck.. but boy, was I wrong.

Dude, Friday the 13th Sucked

You know the plot, deformed kid drowns in a lake while at camp, becomes a killer blah blah blah. In the original movie, Jason's mother is the murderer in the first movie (sorry for spoiling it). However in this remake, Jason is the murderer from the beginning, we get a small "mother murder scene" in the beginning, but its just to set the situation. In fact, this movie is kind of melting pot of the first few Friday the 13th movies.

The casting in this movie was terrible. First off, the asian dude from 21 and Nick and Norah is in the movie...awesome. And the rest of the characters look like they came fresh from a Hollister shoot.

POLO WEARING SHAGGY HAIRED CUTE GUY 1
Hey, I am looking for my sister. Have you seen her?

POLO WEARING SHAGGY HAIRED CUTE GUY 2
No, bro. Get out of my face.

Also, you remember Willa Ford, yeah she's in it... She shows her boobs though, oh how the mighty have fallen.

A lot of people watch horror movies for the brutal killing scenes, and Friday the 13th had some awesome killing scenes, or atleast, I think it did. There was this one part where Jason was gonna stick this long metal thing in this guys neck, but then the camera got really shaky and I couldn't tell but I think the guy died, I mean I didn't see him anymore, so I'm assuming he died and I am assuming it was awesome. This was an R rated movie, why would you hire Michael J Fox to be your cameraman? Show the murder, what a letdown.

What a horrible movie and a complete bastardization of a decent franchise... ok franchise..1 and 2 were good... so was Jason Goes to Hell... uhhh, so its another shitty product of a shitty franchise... 3 outta 9 or so is pretty bad.

This movie broke some horror movie first week records, so it has to ok right? Wrong, you know what else was in theaters when this came out... He's Just Not That Into You and Confessions of a Shopaholic... what else were you going to see? Slumdog Millionaire? No thanks, I don't watch bollywood, bro. (Editors note : Slumdog Millionaire was good...bro)

I shouldn't have paid to see Friday the 13th, because Dude, that movie sucked.
