While Jason Voorhees is technically back from the dead, the real meat of Friday the 13th is in seeing the big lunk on the screen, and for a new Friday the 13th movie, that’s proving to be a long-winded business.
After the legal rights wrangle between Sean Cunningham, Victor Miller, and Horror Inc.
Cunningham was speaking at Texas Frightmare Weekend. There, he participated in a panel reuniting the director and producer of Friday the 13th with original star Adrienne King and FX legend Tom Savini, Cunningham apparently didn’t get into any of the grubby war of rights for the fracnhise, but had that above gloomy update. He explained that studios are less likely to take a punt on a horror movie with a decent budget in a post-pandemic world without assurances it can do well in theaters.
While Cunningham did not mention any particular studio when discussing this, New Line is the name still most likely associated with making a new Friday the 13th movie. The company isn’t shy of having a hand in a modern entry in an 80s horror franchise. It co-produced last year’s Evil Dead Rise, which definitely made use of a relatively modest budget to great effect.has the flavor of a new Friday the 13th movie if it were somehow accidentally fused to a relaxing sounds YouTube video.
