As was the case with
The Haunting in Connecticut, another Halloween-ish movie that comes out next year, we're getting an early, seasonally-fitting look at the next
Friday the 13th. The movie opens Feb. 13, 2009 and once again features our hockey masked Jason preying upon unsuspecting young people at the creepy site of Camp Crystal Lake.
They brought us Armageddon. They brought us The Rock. And now, they might be bringing us .
Now that
Michael Bay has secured rights to remake every scary film, let the casting news begin. There is a good chance that Jared Padalecki, most recently of Supernatural fame, but known to
Gilmore Girls fans as Dean,
will star in the remake of
Friday the 13th. According to Hollywood Reporter, this remake will "focus on the serial killer [Jason], who will wear his now-iconic hockey mask.
Most of you were irritated to learn that Michael Bay is planning on remaking Wes Craven’s 1984 film A Nightmare on Elm Street and another '80s horror classic, Friday the 13th. Bay's
production company also has plans to remake Near Dark and The Birds and has already produced mostly forgettable remakes of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Amityville Horror, and The Hitcher.
Now there is news that Bay's production company is
trying to work out a deal to develop the Ira Levin novel
Rosemary's Baby into a new film.
I would guess that most of you don't approve of the news today that
Michael Bay will be directing a new franchise of horror movies based on Wes Craven’s 1984 film A Nightmare on Elm Street. Coupled with the November news that
Friday the 13th is being remade, it's all starting to get a little annoying.
So which of these '80s horror remakes bugs you the most?
There's this absurd-sounding rumor going around that Michael Bay (Transformers, The Rock, Armageddon) will be directing a biopic about Princess Diana — with Scarlett Johansson first in line for the title role.
Entertaining the extraordinarily slim chance that this could possibly happen, what do you think of Scarlett playing the Lady Di?

If Josh is feeling lonely promoting
Transformers without the help of his co-stars, he sure is doing a great job of hiding it. Mr. Duhamel looked more than happy to be interviewed and sign autographs for his many screaming fans at the movie's premiere in Japan today.
If you were fond of Hasbro's Transformers action figures and have been dying to watch Industrial Light and Magic use CGI to make them come to life on screen, ignore the following review. Ditto if you love insanely loud (and inanely plotted) action movies. But if you need character development and a coherent story, read this and then — run.
