Friday the 13th | Remake This Movie RIGHT!

There are many classics in the horror genre, but not many measure up to the iconic status of Friday the 13th. Often duplicated, yet rarely replicated, Friday the 13th took the slasher gore of Halloween and cranked it up to 11, while also introducing us to the mythology that would become Jason Voorhees.

Listen this week as we remake this mama bear of camp slasher flicks, Friday the 13th. Do we stay with the original? When does Jason come into play? Grab a bunk and pull the covers up tight, we’re about to Remake This Movie RIGHT!

via IMDb.com: A group of camp counselors is stalked and murdered by an unknown assailant while trying to reopen a summer camp which, years before, was the site of a child’s drowning.

Remake This Movie RIGHT! is a bi-weekly podcast where we take a classic film that is actively being remade by Hollywood studio execs, and craft our own version for a modern retelling. Does the story need updating? Should characters or motives be tweaked? Do we need more muppets? We take all factors into account, concoct our film, and then offer a Final Pitch to you in movie trailer form. By the end of each episode, we will Remake This Movie RIGHT!

Our show is broken down into three distinct parts:

The Original: We discuss the original film’s impact, some quick trivia bits, what worked the best from the film and therefore must remain in our upcoming remake, and what didn’t work or what needs to be changed for today’s audiences.

The Remake: We put together our movie! What story do we want to tell, how close to the original will it be, who will star, and ultimately who should direct our eventual cinematic masterpiece? Our hosts work together to put together one cohesive movie, but there is one caveat – Each host has one ‘CUT!’ throughout the episode to employ which could completely derail the entire film.

The Final Pitch: This is where we summarize our remake by utilizing the voice talents of voiceover artist Wayne Henderson and present our finished remake to you in movie trailer form!
