Official Friday the 13th

[Mr-K]

Did someone say Evil Dead? Count me on the Team of liking Evil Dead more than the rest of the series. Actually I like them in the order they were released, AoD is TOO silly for my taste. I still hug them late at night though.

For those interested, Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash issue one hits Wednesday. Could be fun. I couldn't find a cover image for #1, but check out #2's:



Interesting.

Nice art.

QFT. I seen Evil Dead 2 first followed by Army. I really didn't like AOD all that much, but I appreciated it for what it was. When I FINALLY seen Evil Dead, I was in heaven! I loved how slowly the film moved. But when it hit, it hit fucking hard and never let up ! Also, I was dating a girl named Lynda at the time, so the movie had added comedic value to me as well

[Mr-K]

Evil Dead scarred my girlfriend when she was a child apparently. She watched it at a birthday party and had nightmares for a while after that. She never knew what movie it was until she was dating me and I said "OMG Evil dead is like my super favorite movie ever, you should watch it."

Ah the memories came flooding back. That was awesome.

They just announced the director of the remake. The dude who directed the TCM remake is directing from a script written by the guys that did Freddy vs Jason.

[Mr-K]

FvJ was awesome and all but only because it was like a massive cartoon. I don't think they can handle anything that is legitimately scary or atmospheric. I mean, they made Jason look like a good guy for godssake.

[Dolemite]

Mr-K pretty much mirrored my opinion of FvJ, although I wouldn't go so far as to call it "awesome." It was dumb fun, although I mostly saw it as wasted potential. It was just too damn campy and over-the-top and not scary at all. I don't have much faith in the writing team, although I think Ronny Yu was more to blame for the final product. I also missed having Kane Hodder as Jason, as opposed to the new NBA-player looking guy.

The director of the TCM remake did a damn fine job, however. That raises my interest quite a bit.

[Mr-K]

although I think Ronny Yu was more to blame for the final product.

I'm going to disagree with you there. I thought the direction and the physical look of the film were all really cool, but I suppose that's more because of the production designer rather than the director.

They are filming this down in Austin of all places... Just a jump from me. Wish I had an agent, I'd audition to be in this.

Casting Breakdowns:

WHITNEY Caucasian. Mid 20s. Younger sister to Clay. Pretty and strong girl. She has the smarts and the will to survive in the most desperate of circumstances.

CLAY Caucasian. Late 20s. Older brother of Whitney. He's good-looking and has a quiet inner confidence. He's a dedicated and smart guy. All the girls definitely find him attractive.

CHUMBLER Caucasian, early to mid-20s. A little chubby, but he wears his size well, along with his cool chin beard. He has a tendency to make wear his attraction to attractive girls on his sleeve. He has no shame. Please submit your funniest character actors.

TRENT Caucasian, early to mid-20s. The Alpha-Male. He's got money, and he wants you to be his friend... especially if you can do something for him.

JENNA Caucasian, early to mid-20s. Trent's date for the weekend. She's great-looking, athletic, and the adventurous type. We wonder why she would be with Trent.

LAWRENCE Black, early to mid-20s. Good-looking and funny as hell. He's smart and is already trying to get his own company started. He puts on a white sounding "good ol' boy" voice when talking to his business associates.

NOLAN He wears a T-shirt that says F**K CHRISTMAS - The asterisks are snowflakes. But when an older woman walks by, he crosses his arms, covering it. Nolan poses as a rebel, but he's just as square as the rest of us.

CHELSEA Attractive college girl. Friends with BREE, but not as sexy. PARTIAL NUDITY REQUIRED

BREE Attractive friend to Chelsea, definitely the sexier of the two, and she dresses to make sure you can tell the difference. Hot as Hell!

WADE Caucasian, mid-20s. He's technologically inclined... at least enough to use a GPS Receiver. He knows the story about Camp Crystal Lake and he tells it to his crew around a campfire.

MIKE Caucasian, mid-20s. Whitney's boyfriend. He's a genuine and logical guy. He makes sure that his friends, and especially Whitney, are safe and taken care of. He's a really nice guy.

AMANDA Caucasian, mid-20s, voluptuous. Perfectly tanned and sexy. She's into Richie...at least for the weekend. PARTIAL NUDITY REQUIRED

RICHIE Caucasian, mid-20s. Funny and definitely attracted to Amanda. He doesn't waste time making a move on her.
