Max Landis Wants To Make A Movie Featuring Horror’s Most Iconic Killers

For years horror fans have been talking about how awesome it would be to see a movie featuring all our favorite genre icons, Freddy, Jason, Michael, ect… Max Landis, son of the legendary An American in Werewolf filmmaker John Landis, has dreamed up a mind-blowing film and recently shared his idea, which has been brewing for the past 6 years, with the Nerdist’s Writers Panel podcast. The basic idea is that a 17-year-old kid in the foster system gets placed with a family living on Elm Street, the family of Glen Lantz (Johnny Depp’s character in the original Nightmare on Elm Street movie. On his first night, he is drugged at dinner and encounters Freddy Krueger. Freddy stalks the kid…pops out…claws to the face…dead instantly. Except he’s not and Freddy can’t get his claws out of the kid’s face. All of a sudden, chains, like the movie Hellraiser, go all around Freddy…pull him up and lock him…like he’s a scarecrow.”

Woman (In Horror) Crush Wednesday: ‘Friday The 13th’ Contest

Here we are, my Little Monsters, not even two full days away from Friday October 13th. We only experience a Friday the 13th in October every six or seven years, depending on whether it’s a leap year, so I figured I would take this opportunity to celebrate a wonderful Final Girl of the Friday the 13th franchise by offering up a prize to be given away on Friday the 13th. As horror fans we have all experienced, albeit vicariously, the ordeal required to survive Friday the 13th and be the Final Girl of her respective chapter. So let’s take a look back at the harrowing experience of one miss Ginny Fields. Friday the 13th Part 2 took us all back to Crystal Lake…well, to a camp near it actually. This is where we met Ginny Fields, who was played by Amy Steel. She was one out of a group of counselors, who were making preparations to a summer camp in

The Friday the 13th Reboot Hunts Down A SFX Company And A Mask

Breck Eisner is in the directors chair for reboot of ‘Friday the 13th’, which we reported earlier this week was finally entering production. Casting is now underway and filming set to begin in March in Conyers, Georgia. The film, penned by Aaron Guzikowski (Prisoners), will take us on a journey deeper into Jason’s history. Not only will we learn more about our favorite machete toting killer, we will see Pamela Voorhees and for the first time on film we will meet Jason’s father Elias Voorhees. F13Franchise.com is now reporting that Platinum Dunes has hired Legacy Effects to bring Jason back to life by creating the special effects, props, and Jason’s iconic mask.

Friday The 13th – The Scariest Jason Moment of All Time.

Today, as you all already know my Little Monsters, is Friday the 13th. It’s a day when some people want to stay home and pull the covers over their heads in order to avoid bad luck or a cruel twist of fate. Some take it as a personal challenge for fate to just go ahead and try something if it dares to do so…grrrr. But moreover, it tends to bring to mind the tragic story of a grieving mother of a dead son AND the crazy, kill rampage she perpetrates on a group of camp counselors who had NOTHING to do with it. Now while Jason was not the focal point of the original Sean Cunningham classic, he definitely was the driving force behind the subsequent chapters in the franchise. And despite only having very brief screen time in the 1980 film, Ari Lehman’s curtain call as Jason in the final minutes has always registered with me as hands down
