When I heard that they were trying to reboot the Friday the 13th franchise I was a little worried. When I heard Michael Bay was involved I was a little more than curious. So, when I got a call to go see it last night (on Friday the 13th) I had to do it. True 80’s horror movies have 3 elements. First, there must be gratuitous nudity (check). Second, there must be a lack of plot or flushed out / believable back story (check). Finally, you need roughly a 50/50 mix between comedy and suspense-type jump scares (check, check, check). I had a great time watching this movie. Is it a cinematic masterpiece. No. But what the hell are you going in expecting Citizen Kane for?!? This is a Michael Bay produced Friday the 13th movie. Go in expecting to laugh out loud, see some needless nudity and jump in to your neighbor’s seat a couple times. If you do that you’ll have a good time. I really recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys the 80s Horror genre.
I’m Mike D and I approve this message.
