Happy Friday the 13th, everybody! I feel like this one in special since it's landed in September and it feels like we've all been jonesing for Spooky Season to get started -- so let's just go ahead and use today's holiday as an excuse to say Spooky Season is offically here! Slap on your bat wings and big fake gummy teeth and go scare somebody, it's time! Or rip off your wings and teeth now -- that would also scare somebody. Anyway an excellent way to properly celebrate -- besides watching one of the Jason Voorhees movies, of course -- is to go watch this year's expirimental Slasher hit In a Violent Nature, which has just today landed on Shudder! Admittedly this movie isn't for everybody, but for those of you who like to try new things it might work as well as it did for me -- here is my Sundance review. (Which landed me on some of its promotional materials, huzzah!) Its killer Johnny, he of the big goofy logger's mask, is basically the new Jason Voorhees -- since we're not getting any new Friday the 13th stuff thanks to the dopes who killed Bryan Fuller's highly anticipated series it'll have to do, anyway. I think I reported this when it was announced but they are working on a Violent Nature sequel, and what's more Friday the 13th then sequels??? I do wonder if the gimmick it uses will work a second time -- I think they will have to find a new way to spice it up. But if Orphan could do it after we got the world's greatest most ridiculous twist -- and goddamn did Orphan 2 work -- then they can!
