With the Friday the 13th franchise embroiled in a legal quagmire that just might last years, it’s up to fans to keep the legend of Jason Voorhees alive and relevant in the 21st Century. Luckily, we’ve seen some incredible fan film in recent years, including a trailer for the upcoming Voorhees, which we shared last November.
Originally conceived as a short, filmmakers Cody Faulk and Chris Plaushin stretched Voorhees into a feature film following a successful crowdfunding campaign.
Voorhees now has an official release date: September 13th, 2019. It’s a Friday, of course! The announcement came with a new trailer, one that has us wondering: Is Jason actually the good guy in this reimagining of the iconic franchise? Keep this question in mind while watching it for yourself at the top of the article.
Synopsis:
They committed the perfect crime. They planned for every possibility. But they never planned for him… After pulling off the perfect heist a dangerous crew of thieves flees town to the seclusion of the nearby woods. All they have to do is make it through the night so they can get away clean but their sadistic leader has taken them to the long-deserted Camp Crystal Lake, a place that is no longer on any maps and for good reason. Unaware of the locations notorious past the fugitives begin to explore their temporary hideout and soon realize that this place has a very dark and violent history that they are soon about to become part of. It is a race to the morning where the lines between bad and pure evil are blurred and the fight to survive the awakened legend of Camp Crystal Lake is much more than they bargained for.
