Question Freddy vs Jason - Good - Shock

This film certainly has to be either one of the best or worst horror flicks for quite some time.

And according to the buzz it seems it could actually be good which to be honest will absolutely amaze me.

wonder how many sequels they'll make

It's the ultimate fanboy dream that this film is even getting made. The fact that it might be good... well, I don't want to even think about that.

I'm sure they'll be able to work out some kind of deal to mix Michael Myers into this particularly foul smelling crapola soup and build up some kind of franchise. What next? Pinhead vs Leatherface? (actually isn't Leatherface a New Line character too? I know they've the rights to TCM3)

If this film turns out to be anywhere near watchable I'll eat Freddy's fedora


I'd like to be surprised by this one. Really I would.

interesting, but I've seen many an excellent trailer for crap films

I'm not holding my breath or building up my hopes. It does hold a lot of potential though

Trust me, it's a fairly simple one

(For those interested, the plot - such as it is - can easily be found on the Net. As can the outcome, so don't look!)

I have a feeling we're going to be pleasantly surprised by this one, there's an awful lot more than more Freddy/Jason films hanging in the balance and depending on how well this one fares at the box office.

Put it this way, anyone who wants to see Alien Vs. Predator actually happen really ought to buy a few tickets to F Vs. J...

No real spoilers, just an idea of the plot.....

Basically the general idea of the plot seems to be that freddy has had enough and getting bored of living in hell, so conjoures up a plan to get out.
Becomes a cross dresser - dresses as Jason's mum and tells him he needs to start killing people on Elm Street, then the people will think Freddy is back and start to have nightmares about him and he'll come back to life (although if he can come down as jason's mum, I'm not sure why he can't anyway ??? )..
The plan works blah blah blah........
Untill Jason realises he's been tricked and war is declared between the two !!!!!

Obviously including plenty of nubile young teenagers to chase and kill through the film....

Robert England stars as Mrs Vohrees. Hmm... it is pathetically simple this one.

Can't see it working to well - Jason/Dialogue don't bode to well togeather.

Maybe Jason had a dream about Freddy?
