Platinum Dunes and Paramount will never, ever understand that in order to truly revitalize this series, they need to go back to its origins — to the first movie. They need to go back to whatever it was that made Friday the 13th so creepy and atmospheric in the first place, and perhaps tap into that mystery that caused people to line up in droves at theaters across the country. But it will never happen.

It was a functional, if nothing else, remake that was entertaining at some points. Unlike it's prequel, which managed to strip out what little soul was there to begin with.

I didn't get that same vibe from the Friday the 13th remake though.

Handing it off to Bruckner to re-do a re-do seems like nothing good will come of it.
