Blumhouse Wants to Reboot Friday the 13th Next

Recently we shared the news that Blumhouse head producer Jason Blum wants to produce an Insidious/Sinister crossover film.

And if that wasn’t cool enough, today we have word via CinePOP that Blum wants to tackle yet another major horror icon along with his upcoming Halloween film.

“Besides Halloween?” Blum asked. “You know, I really wanted to do Friday the 13th. I would love to do that movie. Maybe someday we’ll get do to that one.”

Blumhouse’s Friday the 13th? Very interesting!

I guess we’ll have to wait and see how Blumhouse’s reboot/sequel of John Carpenter’s Halloween does first. But with all the news coming out of that film, such as the return of Jamie Lee Curtis and Nick Castle, I’m more than hopeful the production company knows what they’re doing.

We’ll let you know if we hear anything further about Blumhouse’s desire to make a reboot/sequel to Friday the 13th. Until then let us know if you would be down for a Blumhouse-produced Friday the 13th flick below!

Friday the 13th (2009) Synopsis:
Against the advice of locals and police, Clay (Jared Padalecki) scours the eerie woods surrounding Crystal Lake for his missing sister. But the rotting cabins of an abandoned summer camp are not the only things he finds. Hockey-masked killer Jason Voorhees lies in wait for a chance to use his razor-sharp machete on Clay and the group of college students who have come to the forest to party.
