Poster and Images From ‘His Name Was Jason’ Doc
A few weeks ago we told you about a new FRIDAY THE 13TH documentary entitled HIS NAME WAS JASON, which we were interviewed for as part of the retrospect. Today we were sent a link to the official MySpace page, which featured not only a cool teaser poster for the flick, but also a look at Kane Hodder being interviewed. Read on to take a look. JASON is slated to premiere on Starz! in February of 2009 (a week before the release of Platinum Dunes’ remake) before hitting DVD soon thereafter from Anchor Bay Entertainment. The doc is being directed by Dan Ferrands, the editor and co-publisher of the incredible FRIDAY interview book, “Crystal Lake Memories” and two AMITYVILLE HORROR documentaries.

Sunrise Films has announced the official North American release of William Bagley‘s horror comedy Hold the Fort, and it’s accompanied by an energetic new trailer.
Hold the Fort debuts on digital platforms on June 23.
In the film, “Lucas and Jenny think their life is finally coming together when the couple become homeowners. Little do they know that their new house comes with a big catch. Lucas and Jenny soon find themselves in a fight for their lives when they become trapped in a battle between their Homeowners Association and an onslaught of monsters from hell. The horror-comedy takes the timely concern of home-ownership and wraps this up in an entertaining action-packed thrill ride.“
Watch the new trailer below, which introduces one wild HOA gathering during an equinox. Things get bloody fast.
Chris Mayers (Adult Swim Yule Log), Haley Leary (“The Walking Dead”), Levi Burdick, and Julian Smith star.
William Bagley writes and directs, in addition to producing with Smith, Matt Dodd, Luke Williams, and Tim Reis (Adult Swim Yule Log).
Ahead of the release, Bagley said, “My goal with this film was to make a hilarious, fast-paced thrill ride while also telling a great story with heart. Hopefully, through all the blood, laughs, fights, and gags, you leave the film feeling inspired to tackle whatever life throws at you.“
Hold the Fort premiered at Fantasia last summer before going on to play FrightFest London, Toronto After Dark, and Beyond Fest.
I wrote in my review, “It’s an infectiously charming assemblage of jokes and monster vignettes bound together by a barebones plot with not much on its mind beyond delivering an entertaining time.”
