Two-Minutes With the New Jason Voorhees, Derek Mears!
While at the red carpet premiere for MY BLOODY VALENTINE 3D, we caught up with your new Jason Voorhees, Derek Mears, who chatted with us (briefly) about the reshoots, sex and violence in the film, along with the potential for a sequel. Read on for the skinny and check out Friday the 13th in theaters February 13, 2009.
Derek took some time at the red carpet premiere to address a few questions FRIDAY THE 13Th fans have been asking on B-D over the past few weeks. First he addressed the “reshoots” that took place a few weeks ago,
“We reshot two of the kills,” Mears tells Bloody-Disgusting. “They were good before, but the producers decided to go back and give them a little extra TLC.”
In a previous interview, Mears told us he was a pretty big fan of the franchise, when asked if he had seen the remake yet he replied, “UGH! NO. I have not seen the film yet. It’s driving me crazy!”
As for sequel talk, there have been rumblings…
“I’ve heard rumors [about a sequel], but nothing official. I’m guessing it would all depend on how well this one does first.”
But the most important question we asked was if the film will have more boobs, or more violence (and count each boob)…
“Ha! Boobs or Violence… (counts on fingers) Definitely more violence,” he says with a sinister grin.
In Marcus Nispel’s FRIDAY THE 13TH, searching for his missing sister, Clay heads up to the eerie woods of legendary Crystal Lake, where he stumbles on the creaky remains of rotting old cabins that lie in wait behind moss-covered trees. And that’s not the only thing hiding under the brush. Against the advice of police and cautions from the locals, Clay pursues what few leads he has, with the help of a young woman he meets among a group of college kids up for an all-thrills weekend. But they are about to find much more than they bargained for. Little do they know, they’ve entered the domain of one of the most terrifying specters in American film history-the infamous killer who haunts Crystal Lake, armed with a razor-sharp machete… Jason Voorhees.
Director Sébastien Vaniček has been set to helm the next Evil Dead movie, but up first from the filmmaker is the creepy crawly spider horror movie Infested. An exclusive new clip gives a discomfiting closer look at the spider terror, and it’ll make you intensely afraid of all bathroom drains and fixtures.
Infested will induce a new wave of arachnophobia this week; the spider horror film arrives on Shudder on April 26, 2024.
If you’re brave enough to face your fears, watch the new clip below to get a feel for the unrelenting wave of spiders that the characters (and the audience) will face in the film.
In the film, “An underprivileged suburb has been thrown into chaos following an invasion of venomous spiders. Ordered to be placed in quarantine, the project sees inhabitants living on lockdown alongside terrifying spiders that are becoming bigger and bigger.
“The story revolves around Kaleb, who’s about to turn 30 and has never been lonelier. He’s fighting with his sister over a matter of inheritance and has cut ties with his best friend.
“Passionate about exotic animals, he comes home one day with a venomous spider and accidentally lets it slip away.”
Théo Christine (“Suprêmes”), Finnegan Oldfield (“Final Cut”), Jérôme Niel (“Smoking Causes Coughing”), Sofia Lesaffre (“Les Misérables”) and Lisa Nyarko star.
Florent Bernard co-wrote the script.
In his review out of Fantastic Fest last year, Bloody Disgusting’s Trace Thurman raved that Infested (aka Vermines) is “one of the best spider attack movies in years,” noting in his 4-star review that the creature feature uses practical spiders – REAL SPIDERS – as much as possible. Thurman also wrote that the spider horror movie is “full of moments that will get under your skin (I kicked my legs up more than a few times in my screening).”
The spiders will be everywhere in Infested, are you ready?
