‘Friday the 13th’ Sequel a Possibility?
While there are plenty of haters here on Bloody-Disgusting, our stats show that the most anticipated movie of 2009 is New Line Cinema’s Friday the 13th. While nothing is a guarantee, we’re expecting that the Platinum Dunes produced remake will put Jason Voorhees back on the top of the box office. With that said, inside you can read about the possibilities of a sequel, assuming the film performs on February 13, 2009.
“No, we aren’t talking about the sequel until we see how the movie performs,” Platinum Dunes producer Brad Fuller tells Bloody-Disgusting. “We would love to do a sequel and we hope we are in a position to do a sequel, but you never want to test the ‘Movie Gods’ and the movie going audience by preparing something, until you know what you have is successful.” He continues, “With this one, we made a movie that we are all very proud of, it’s the most fun I have had on a movie. I really love it, I hope the audience responds, and we get an opportunity to make another one!”
If the horror fans show up on Friday, February 13th, Jason Voorhees’ legacy just might continue on…

Katharine Isabelle Battles Cosmic Horror in Exclusive ‘Junction Row’ Teaser Trailer [Fantasia 2026]
Among Fantasia 2026‘s massive final wave of programming this morning is Raven Banner’s Lovecraftian creature feature Junction Row, starring Canadian horror icon Katharine Isabelle, and we’re exclusively unveiling the teaser trailer.
Junction Row will celebrate its World Premiere at Fantasia on July 28.
Watch a housing compound fall under siege from Lovecraftian creatures more dangerous than drug dealers in the trailer below.
Junction Row follows “Juno, a recovering addict who leaves a fringe housing compound for a better life, leaving her beloved Ruby behind. When she learns that Ruby has gone missing, Juno returns, only to find Junction Row has become a hotbed of criminal activity, but she encounters much more than menacing drug dealers on her mission to find Ruby.”
Isabelle stars as Juno, with Natalie Brown (FX’s The Strain) as Ruby.
The creature feature marks the feature debut by director Ashlea Wessel, who has directed festival-favorite shorts like 2018’s “Tick” and 2020’s “Weirdo”.
Wessel co-writes Junction Row with Clown in a Cornfield author Adam Cesare and Matt Serafini.
Katharine Isabelle is coming off a brief appearance in Kane Parsons’ Backrooms, and more recently appeared in holiday horror It’s a Wonderful Knife. The horror icon is arguably best known for her turn as the eponymous werewolf in Ginger Snaps and for her roles in American Mary and Freddy vs Jason.
Fantasia teases that Junction Row tells “a story where the fear of the unknown isn’t confined to what lies above, but what waits beneath.”
Stay tuned for more from Fantasia as the festival gets underway later this month.
