Mother's Day is a feature-length fan film based on the young adult novel of the same name. Picking up after the events of Jason Goes to Hell, a hunter out doing his thing at Camp Crystal Lake finds Jason's mask, gets infused with The Spirit, and goes all crazy-like. Enter partying teens, mayhem ensues.There's clips and trailers at the site, and you can actually download the entire film for free...which I'll be doing shortly. I mean, it can't be worse than Jason Goes to Hell, right? And I give what the kids might call "mad props" to anyone shooting a feature-length film on the cheap. Fan film power, activate!
Incidentally, I have no idea whether or not rosehips are something you'd want in a salve. In fact, I think maybe they're actually something you eat. It sounded good, though.
I've read that Young Adult novel.
ReplyDeleteActually those Friday adaptations were pretty dang good, and gory considering the market they were shooting for.
Thanks for the heads up. This might be interesting...
If I'm not mistaken, Rosehips is a character in the new Lindsay Lohan movie. You know, the wiseass-stripper-best friend that is savagely murdered at the end of the first act...eh, maybe not.
ReplyDeleteSo this is like a horror version of "The Mask," I guess. Oooh, wouldn't it be cool if someone took an axe to Jim Carrey. I mean, he's already done that to his career.
I am in the middle of reading that very "young adult horror novel," despite not being a "young" adult anymore. So far it is good.
ReplyDeleteThis movie looks fun & what fan fiction is all aboot. I'll watch it after I finish the book.
It has to be better than Jason X.
The idea of the Friday franchise penetrating (let alone targeting) the young adult book market is at once hilarious and delightful.
ReplyDeleteIf school library shelves are actually getting stocked with copies of "Are you there, mom? It's me, Jason", then maybe there's hope for Western civilization after all.
