Episode 124: Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood + Friday the 13th (2009)

Friday night's a good night for slashing, so here comes Part 4 of our meandering trip through the Friday the 13th franchise. Al is in the house again as we check out Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood (1988), directed by John Carl Buechler, and then we delve into the inevitable Platinum Dunes remake effort, Friday the 13th (2009), directed by Marcus Nispel. Is it a misunderstood gem? And how could Part VII ever recover from its (ironic) evisceration at the rapacious hands of the MPAA? Let's just say, plot is not really the reason to watch either of these films. so we won't be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for either of them. Want to get in touch?
