Can Jason Save Horror Movies?

What happened my beloved Hollywood horror movies that used to make me freaking scream like a Banshee? Where have they gone? Overseas. Seems like Japan, the land of the rising sun, and it's neighboring countries are churning out some really high-end, quality horror flicks while Hollywood seems content to churn out remake after remake with today's release of Friday 13th (2009).

Yes, they've actually included the year 2009 in the title because this film has seen more makeovers than a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon. Seems like Friday 13's Jason is the go to guy when it comes to horror franchises.

Actually, Jason's the James Bond of horror without the hot babe fringe. No wonder Jason's pissed off! But hey, any fighter knows that sex before the big match is a big no-no. And trust me, Jason the whole horror industry is counting on you to deliver a knockout hit. So, in the immortal words of Rocky Balboa "Cut me, Mick."

Friday 13th There Will Be Blood

There will be blood. Lots and lots of blood, starting on Friday 13th, 2009 as Jason returns once again to mow down the pretty young things hanging out at Crystal Lake. And, Jason, after your done taking care of business, there's some people in Afghanistan we'd like you to meet. But seriously, you can tell the economy is so bad, when Jason, who is probably about a 107 in movie years is forced back out of retirement after his pension fund went belly up in this wall street debacle. No wonder he's angry! I'm pissed off, too! Where's my axe? Don't worry, Jason. If you can make it anywhere, it's New York City. I'd hedge my bet on you. Exit your car lease early - no penalties!

Watchmen Superheroes With Attitude

Watchmen are a whole new breed of costume superheros with attitude for those of us who never read the limited edition series published by DC Comics, shame on you, and what are you waiting for?

The film version of Watchmen looks like it's gonna drop soon at your local cineplex now that Fox Studios and Warner Bros have kissed and made up over who actually controls the rights to the project. "Bring me the head of Joel Silver on tray," was a phrase allegedly overheard several times by the lunch crowd at the Smoke House.

Regardless, Watchmen is surely to awaken movie goers from their Oscar nominated film doldrums, or in some cases just plain dull movies like suburban nightmare Revolutionary Road.

Please, no more cerebral films for at least 9 more months; I just want a good, old fashioned CGI, cutting edge $200 million flick with a good story and lots of mayhem. So get ready to race to the theatre, grab a big bucket of popcorn and a Coke and be thoroughly entertained. Watchmen, now that's something worth watching.
