    I have finally realized my lifelong dream...

    I was sitting at work today, tossing around some ideas on a horror short story of sorts when my mind began to wonder the recent slew of horror remakes in the past few years. Starting with that terrible frame-by-frame Psycho remake and carrying us through something like Dawn of the Dead and The Amityville Horror (if I didn't get the name of the town right I should be shot, I live right next to it).

    Friday the 13th should be remade!

    AND I MUST WRITE AND DIRECT IT.


    But not like...remade...REVISIONED. Imagine a slasher film where the slasher is an entity of pure evil that really freightens you, not a character you root for as he caliously slices through sex-crazed teens. An obsessive Mr. Christy scrambles as much as he can to save face for his loser life by reopening Camp Crystal Lake...but two bodies are found, one is an old lady, in a hit and run near the camp, and another is a body that washes up from the lake. However, the body from the lake dissapears before officials can do something about it, this is followed by various wildlife deaths occuring throughout the forest. Until finally JASON shows up and starts slashing up teens cause they hit his mom with a car or something.

    I WILL DO IT, NO ONE CAN STO PME! AAAAAAA AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

    ....I have no idea where that came from

          The original Friday the 13th wasn't even Jason, though.

          And I'm tired of horror sequels. I don't want horror remakes, either. I am steadily growing hatred for the slasher genre, as well. I mean, they've made movies about killer scarecrows, THAT'S HOW BAD IT'S GETTING.

          I want something new. Terrifying. Bone-chilling. Nightmare-giving.

            That's the thing, you would think that it's about Pam Voorhees for the first few minutes, cause you see that she slashed up some kids the last time they tried opening up the camp, but this time, when you see her on her way some wayward employee hopefuls for the camp accidentally run her down (those pesky backwoods paths have no light)

            Friday the 13th will always be about Jason, despite the fact that the first was really the only "good movie" of the bunch.

            A remake can only establish my career as a horror director and set a stage for original bone-chilling BRC-approved movies

              That's funny. I just realized MY lifelong dream was to recreate the musical Chicago with the entire cast of Final Fantasy VIII.

              Actually, I had the idea for a while.

                But it'll never happen, as long as the horror genre stays cheap and brings in decent money.

                  And for the record, Jeepers Creepers was a big gay

                    Truly original, scary stories will never be made into movies because they'd probably be a) expensive and b) unmarketable.

                      What about Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter?

                        The Ring and Dark Water (both Japanese remakes) are among the best that are available out of the more current lot of crap.

                        The problem with the horror/slasher genre is that it has become a way for directors to prove themselves in the market and producers to gain the funds necessary for their desired works. Sofia Coppola had to direct Jeepers Creepers 2 before they would let her do Lost in Translation, and the two movies are vastly different, and JC2 is no comparison to Lost in Translation. Evil movies are a necessary evil in the Hollywood market, I just wish they would put more effort into it.

                              Dude, script it.

                              If it gives me nightmares then it's a success!
