  • Friday the 13th Reviewer Quotes

    The new “Friday the 13th,” I’m sort of surprised to report, isn’t bad. If you’re a slasher fan, you’ll enjoy the variety of homicides on display and the jolting moments of suspense as one unsuspecting teen after another gets bumped off. Those who have never liked this kind of movie, however, won’t have their opinion changed by this one.—Alonso Duralde, MSNBCMSNBC: Friday the 13th... (February 12, 2009)

    It’s the typical formula for a slasher movie and guessing who dies in what order. What’s not to love?—Lana Berkowitz, Houston ChronicleHouston Chronicle: Why Friday the 13th... (February 11, 2009)

    This new "Friday the 13th," unquestionably savvier and snappier than the original "Friday the 13th," though just as useless, is a needed return to simplicity: An SUV of dramatically varied teens (sluts, nerdy sluts, one black guy, other sluts) visit Camp Crystal Lake. Pot is smoked. Sex is had by all. Also, topless water skiing. They are then impaled and/or burned alive. Personally, after a decade of torture porn, I miss this whole straightforward, arrow-through-the-eye-socket approach.—Christopher Borrelli, Chicago TribuneChicago Tribune: Friday the 13th remake...
