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.

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.
