Now with less nudity


Horror-movies.ca caught up with the director of the Friday the 13th remake who reported that after a screen test failed with males under the age 25, the movie went back into the editing room and was revamped. What was it that they found to their disliking? Was it the fact that the movie shouldn't have been made in the first place? Was it the fact that Jason is appearing in the serious that is supposedly the remake and not another sequel? Was it the fact that guy from Supernatural is in it? No. What bugged them was the nudity.

Wait? The nudity. They must've meant guys over 25 and not under, because there is no way in hell that men under 25 would say a movie had too much nudity.

There was a time when those under 25 were quick to ask, "Is there any naked girls in it?" when the discussion of the a horror flick came into mind. Thankfully those people are no longer around. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the beauty of a naked lady any day, I just don't like gratuitous nudity without purpose.

So kudos to the next generation of horror movie goers! And one more thing: Brad, you're movie's going to suck whether there is nudity or not. You just don't touch the classics.
