Tom McLoughlin brought us one of the most fun films in the FRIDAY THE 13TH franchise, FRIDAY THE 13TH PART VI: JASON LIVES, serving as both writer and director. Arguably the first filmmaker to realize that the FRIDAY movies are inherently funny—and that’s it’s not only acceptable to lean into that humor but it makes…

Because I Have To: FIRST KILL
Can you sense my enthusiasm? I don’t think you can sense my enthusiasm. I don’t think I can sense it, either. Maybe somebody with a microscope could detect it. An electron microscope. They’re the only kind capable of magnifying atoms to a size that can be observed, or so my middle school Science teacher told…
Reversible Death
On tour this summer, opening for Blankets for Kittens, it’s the baddest band in the land…Reversible Death! And rest assured they will be performing their number one hit, “Dead Eyes (Open Again)”! After five hours of deadness, scientists have succeeded in restoring function in eyes that “resembling those [abilities] recorded from living subjects”. Hold up.…
What’s Next for Jason: A New FRIDAY THE 13TH?
Sean Cunningham owns everything related to Jason except his name and his origin. Oh, is that all? Cunningham told CNN: “I think for sure [Jason] will come back. [Edit: He *always* comes back.] But I can’t tell you it will come back this year or next. Will Jason come back in the theaters? Right now,…
What’s Next for Jason: A Prequel Series?
Would the fans accept a Jason Voorhees who doesn’t wear his trademarked hockey mask? Actually, I think they might. If the project were of the right sort, and done properly. What sort of project might that be? Listen to some of the ideas put forward by copyright attorney Marc Toberoff on behalf of Victor Miller:…
What’s Next for Jason?

The lawsuit that has kept the movie franchise trapped in the doldrums for the past several years is largely a matter…
Nightmare Coffee
I do not drink coffee. I do not drink coffee. I do not drink coffee. I do not *like* coffee! I’m just going to keep telling myself this, over and over, and hope it sticks. Otherwise I’m gonna go broke. Buying coffee. Which I don’t drink. Which I don’t like. See, the problem is, Dead…
DOCTOR STRANGE GOES STAR WARS
If I had any complaint about DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS, it would be that they didn’t take advantage of the opportunity afforded to show the fans more universes. They so easily could have. Quick, second-long glimpses of. Say, the X-Men universe (well, they did give us Professor X, so there’s that), the…
Will DRACULA UNTOLD Get Retold?
Let me just copy the first paragraph of this linked article word for word: “It might not have been the story everyone was expecting to see, but that may be the reason why 2014’s Dracula Untold has garnered so many fans, despite its disastrous box-office performance. The movie quickly became an unlikely cult classic in…
Danzig and Purging
Glenn Danzig is the Tommy Wiseau of the Horror genre. And he has his sights set on some werewolf action! Speaking with the folks at the podcast Radioactive with Mike Z, Danzig dropped some of his future plans, and they sound delicious. “The Vampires’ Vengeance is the Death Rider sequel [that is to say, a…
