Found this article and it mentioned an all female Friday the 13th with no guys and only a bunch of final girls hunting Jason In the snow, I have my doubts since this all we have to go on and it is from someone who worked on the series before Tom McLoughlin, but this trend is getting ridiculous.

Ghostbusters 2016
Ocean's 8
Terminator dark fate
Here's the article in question

I just realized this announcement came not long after the 30th anniversary of Friday the 13thpart 8 Jason takes Manhattan 🤔

Isn't Mrs. Voorhees the OG female antagonist to begin with? Her toxic femininity made the series possible, she was always shitting a brick about the cool kids gettin' their fuck on.

If all the victims are female then wouldn't that just make it a high budget snuff film?

not unless it's a documentary
 
Man, an 80's horror movie series staring only females should be fantastic. I wish current year would fuck off already and let people have fun again.

Yeah Jason's mum was the killer in the first movie, the hockey mask didn't even come in till the third movie.
 
If they do it right with tons of gore, creative kills, and gratuitous lesbian sex it will be ok. If it's queef jokes snd Melissa McCarthy not so much.
 
It's going to go one of two ways, they're going to be all girl power and bitch at Jason about how he's the evil patriarchy and make him look like an idiot, or they'll be a bunch of soulless dead eyed assholes with no personality other then staring in the camera looking serious and pretty like late 90's horror, and I'll get bored waiting for them to die.

Just let my boy Jason rest man. He's been to space, he's done enough.

>we'll never get a Friday the 13th movie with Blue Is The Warmest Color tier lesbian sex scenes

fuck why are we still here? Just to suffer?
 
Hold on... Isnt the point of Friday the 13th movies to kill all the campers in amazingly brutal ways? Wouldnt that be misogyny? I'm confused here, are they trying to "empower" women or to oppress them?
 
I read through the article and the only things of note:

No Tommy Jarvis.

Set in the winter. Okay, something a little different while still being set at the camp. This is fine.

Female only cast aside from Jason. This is odd.

The fact that he put an emphasis on an all female cast is weird. Jason has almost always had a final girl excluding Tommy Jarvis in part 4 and 6 (he wasn't in 5 for you plebeians). His sister Trish greatly assisted in part 4 of course. But it's kind of weird to make a big deal of this now.

To be honest, it sounds like a blatant ripoff of Hack/Slash. Which, as shallow as it was- I liked the idea of a story about a girl that survives a slasher going on to hunt down other slashers.

It'd be cool to actually spin off the Friday the 13th/Nightmare on Elm Street series. I'd write it as a bunch of the survivors of those Slashers are older- progress their lives in real-time, and none of them have been able to fully recover.

Maybe one of the survivors goes on to become a psychiatrist that specializes in psychological trauma, PTSD, survivor's guilt, and thing of that nature. She eventually starts finding people like her- survivors of Camp Crystal Lake, Elm Street... and others. These 'slashers' aren't the only ones that exist. There's hundreds, maybe even thousands across the world- people brought back from the dead that prey on the living, a sort of revenant that requires a very specific set of circumstances to be created and destroyed.

So she starts to gather these survivors, and they share what they know- and they begin to find patterns and trends that help them track down other Slashers. But, taking a page from Ghostbusters- the activity begins to increase. More and more Slashers are starting to appear, and they have to find out what's causing this disturbance... now go nuts with that, because I damned sure ain't gonna do that here so some guy can become a millionaire off my post on KF.

They made that as a comic book, it was pretty fun.

At this point I think it would be fine to recognize Freddy, Jason, Pinhead, Leatherface, etc. as iconic monsters similar to Dracula or Frankenstein's monster. Those monsters had multiple other interpretations based on their Universal appearances, and just as many based on their literary original versions... with, of course, plenty of artistic liberties and revisions. While I'm sure that means someone in Hollywood would re-interpret Freddy as some ICE officer throwing kids in concentration camp cages, or Jason as some kind of incel that got rejected and went on a killing spree... there's plenty of creative people out there that could take some liberties and still respect the source material- I mean, the remakes are pretty fucking terrible and even the original flicks descended into flat-out absurdity... but the basics to work with are still there for a solid re-interpretation.

I mean, you get fucking Gregor Clegane in a hockey mask. There's probably plenty of guys that could play Freddy Kruger in a menacing way that captures the original- if Robert Englund isn't down for it (and at his age, he probably isn't up for more than a cameo).

The material is there- I just think that Hollywood needs to stop trying to "do that same thing again but shit it up for today's audience" and just embellish the genre for what it is, and take the next step instead of trying to show us a rehashed version of something we've already seen.
 
What do people like about slashers?
Sexy teens.
Having sex.
Get murdered.

What do you propose for the remake?
Set it in winter so your cast is covered up the entire time.
Have an all female cast so there's no sex.
Have the girls hunt the killer so no one gets murdered.

Brilliant!
