[Exclusive] ‘Friday the 13th: The Game’ Adds Tommy Jarvis Tapes Written by Adam Green!

Published

If you’ve logged many hours playing Friday the 13th: The Game, you might have come across one or two of the “Pamela Tapes,” incredibly hard to find in-game treasures that document interview sessions between Mrs. Voorhees and the police in the wake of young Jason’s drowning death.

We’re incredibly excited to exclusively report today that the game is set to deepen the mythology of the film franchise even further with the Tommy Jarvis Tapes!

Even cooler? The 13 tapes were written by Hatchet filmmaker and hardcore fan of the Friday the 13th franchise, Adam Green!

We became friends with Adam Green through Kane a while back and wanted to find a way to work together,” Gun Media’s Wes Keltner explained to us. “We think what he’s doing for horror is pretty special and he’s a sharp guy, and has a strong literary pen to boot. With the fandom around the Pamela Tapes we thought it would be interesting to dive into the character of Tommy Jarvis too. That’s when we sat down with Adam and started one of those awesome horror conversations that only nerds like us have. ‘So Tommy Jarvis…we’ve seen that character as a kid, troubled late teens and then in his twenties through the films…but there’s gaps, right? Lets fill those!’

Keltner continued, “We along with Adam were giddy as school children when kicking these stories around. He really ran with it and came back with an incredible story that we all loved. We quickly fired up our voice-over partners and went to work recording this character narrative.”

Starting later tonight and into tomorrow, when the new update posts to Steam, XB1 and PS4, players can start finding “The Jarvis Tapes” around every map in the game.

New ‘Infested’ Exclusive Clip Will Make You Intensely Afraid of Bathroom Drains

Shudder Infested clip, spider horror

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?
