Okay, so I have nothing in the way of “You won’t f*ckin believe this!” news; only the update that no, there is no stopping a FRIDAY THE 13th remake/reboot/re-whatever-ing, and yes, Platinum Dunes still has it’s claws on it.

In a Variety article about the state of horror nowadays (it ain’t good), it’s brought up that FRIDAY THE 13th is still on New Line Cinema’s slate, with a projected release date – make that year – of 2009 (a good guess would be Friday, March 13th).
