FRIDAY THE 13TH re-make on HBO: The synopsis =
Welcome back to Crystal Lake in a chilling re-imagining of the classic horror film Friday the 13th. Searching for his missing sister, Clay (Jared Padalecki) heads up to the eerie woods of legendary Crystal Lake, where he stumbles on the creaky remains of the rotting old cabins behind moss-covered trees. And that's not the only thing lying in wait under the brush.
My take . . . . . A decent new version of the original. May chill you if you've never seen that one. A few new twists, but the usual jump scares, etc. Nearly the entire cast of young campers and fun-seekers is despicable- so there's some satisfaction in watching Jason get them. I was only rooting for 3
persons, and only 2 get to the end of the movie. Jared Padalecki is empathetic, and the best known
member of the cast. THREE STARS.
