“I don’t want to heal… I want to find my son. I just had this feeling… that he was still out there. Jason!” 😱 A24 presents a new horror series based on the iconic slasher franchise – Crystal Lake, a prequel series to Friday the 13th, following a doomed small town where camp counselors come to die. This is the “origin story” showing us what happened when it all began. Peacock will air the 8 episodes of this chilling series for streaming starting in October – obviously during horror season. It is a prequel to the original 1980 film that kicked off the franchise. Starring Linda Cardellini in the main role as Pamela Voorhees, Callum Vinson as a young Jason Voorhees, along with William Catlett, Devin Kessler, Cameron Scoggins, Phoenix Parnevik, and Gwendolyn Sundstrom. They went back & filmed at Camp No-Be-Bo-Sco in Blairstown, New Jersey, the exact same camp location and town used in the 1980 original film – really connecting it all back to the first Friday the 13th. After a grand total of 11 sequels in the F13 Jason series so far, do we really need to make a whole prequel? As a series? This is premiering at TIFF this month before it’s out in the fall. That said, this footage does look legit. It’s better than expected – filled with plenty of slasher terror to enjoy. // Continue Reading ›
