Jason, that sweetheart who wears a hockey mask and wields a machete, is back. Friday the 13th is just the ticket for those who want to cuddle with a Valentine date during a horror flick. Killer Jason (ki ki ki ma ma ma) is always good for scary jolts as he chases hapless hardbodies.
This is another spawn of the 1980 horror flick that introduced jason voorhees, the kid who drowned while hormonal teen camp counselors were distracted. Although Jason didnt do the murderous deeds in the first film, it didnt take him long to get up to speed with a machete.
After going into space, battling Freddy Krueger and terrorizing Manhattan, Jason returns to Camp Crystal Lake, his original killing ground.
The franchises 12th film, which reclaims the original title, combines elements of the first four films, according to Amanda Righetti, who plays a young woman who goes missing at Crystal Lake.
Its a throwback to the originals, Righetti said. You still play to that audience that is built-in, that grew up watching friday the 13th and are huge fans of it, but also the new generation who maybe hasnt seen the old 1980 film.
In this version, the camp is in ruins when Clay (Jared Padalecki) goes searching for his sister (Righetti) at infamous Crystal Lake although the authorities and locals advise him to stay away. Clay meets a group of college kids partying at a lake house.
Its the typical formula for a slasher movie and guessing who dies in what order. Whats not to love?
You know going in its Friday the 13th and if there are 13 characters in the beginning, there arent going to be 13 at the end. So you know people are going to die. Padalecki said. But I like that when it gets down to business you dont know who its going to be. It sort of keeps you guessing, and thats the idea.
F13 was filmed in the Austin area by Michael Bay, Andrew Form and Brad Fullers production company, which also did the remake of Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003).
