Dude is not the best director in the world.....but lets face it, if your a Friday the 13th fan all you really need to see is Jason slice and dice a few people to make you happy. BUT I will say this guy does have a good sense of visual style so I can imagine how this one might turn out.

I didn't mind the texas chainsaw remake.Like to see how he aproaches this.

What month in 08 do you think this will be out in,the summer some time?

I think I just vomited alittle in my mouth.

As good a choice as any they were realistically going to make.

so where will Pamela fit into this, if at all?

EWWW I fucking hate this director... I thought Johnathan Liebesman was helming this?! Pathfinder was soo unbearable to sit through, Im not seeing this if he's gunna do it.

Nispel I don't mind. The TCM remake is quite good in my mind. And Pathfinder wasn't that bad...well, as bad as everyone said it was. Stoked to see this.

lmao @ people complaining about Nispel, would you rather have Speilberg or Spike Lee? and I like the TCM remake and pathfinder by the way.I think people just need to watch the movies and stop trying to be a critic

yeah this m,ovie gots to be good i mean his texas chain saw movie was the shit

When i was thinking about how could direct the remake and make it good and fresh and atmospheric i only thought about Marcus Nispel(i was very pleased with what he did did to the TCM remake) but i thought "no way he´d be intrested or asked to make another Platinum remake to a slasher classic". I´m very pleased with the news!

y fo a remake!?!?!?!?!?!? god leave these classics alone its bad enough poltergeist is getting remade......HOPEFULLY this will be good as tcm remake

Damn i can't wait to see Friday The 13th again, Jason is back!!!!!!!! Good News for me.

He's Way better Than Johnathan Liebesman

Agreed.

They should have brought back Steve Miner. Nispel isn't a bad choice though.

There are in fact, remakes that don't suck. Yes! I know! It's shocking. People, atleast wait until you see some stills before you start bitching to high heaven. "Don't touch the classic" "Fucking remakes" Like a bunch of little children. Nobody is ASKING you to see the remake. And even if the remake sucks you still have the original. I for one am looking forward to seeing what they do with Jason. Because imo it wasn't a classic till he put on the mask. But, eh that's just me. All I'm saying is, they seem to have a guy who WILL deliver in some way or another. Just relax, wait till you see some stills before you get all nuts

i wonder if there r going to get kane hodder back to play jason or ken kirzinger from freddy vs jason, either guy would be good

i will be seeing this. those who won't can lick my ass!

All the Jason sequels feel kinda like remakes anyway,at least this remake will actually be more original in so many ways.

i mean im going to see this.. but come on! no pamela? she was better than jason in my opinion. creepy old bitch seeking revenge after going insane over the death of her son... or jason who grows into a huge undead psycho even though he died as a little boy...this should be interesting.

They could make the movie have two killers,Pamela and Jason.

So in essence, this is a remake of Friday the 13th part 3 then? The Jason EVERYONE knows didn't don the hockey mask till halfway through the 3rd movie. And the original Firday the 13th didn't even have Jason in it (except as a child in a "dream" at the end). Do these people who remake classic horror films even see the originals? Or do they just through a dart at a board and pick what they think woulod make money? Hollywood asses....

I'd like to know who will be cast as Jason. I don't care what anyone says, but Kane Hodder is the man to play that role.

I just wanted see some know cast. I kind hate movies with UNKNOWN cast.
