The remake of the slasher film favorite "Friday the 13th" that was released last year surprised a lot of people, critics and fans alike, by taking in nearly $100 million. Shortly after the studio saw how successful the film was, a sequel seemed inevitable. Plot hints were even being dropped by the Platinum Dunes crew. However, film producer, Brad Fuller, said via a Twitter "conversation" with a fan that Friday the 13th: Part 2 is "dead."



The folks over at Shocktilyoudrop.com seem to think that there is more to this story than has been released, so keep an eye out for more information.

ecksmanfan: I'm a big fan of the original films, well the first couple of films at least. I saw the remake and was neither impressed nor disappointed. They took some liberties with the story, to the point that the only similarity was the fact that Jason Voorhees was the killer. If you looked at the film as a separate entity, it wasn't terrible. I'm surprised to hear this news, especially seeing how much the first film grossed.

Compared to many people on CBM, I'm a relative newbie to the comic book world. I've just recently (within the last 10 years or so) started reading comics. However, I've been a fan of comic book characters nearly all my life, thanks to cartoons like the X-Men Series and Batman. Been downhill ever since.

I am an avid movie watcher and run my own movie website,(GeekBoyMovieNews) which covers a wide variety of movies, books and television news. There is nothing better to me than to sit back and a enjoy a good movie, or a crappy one for a good laugh.

While you may not see a lot of articles submitted by me, I've been an active user for close to three years here on CBM and I enjoy every minute on here. We have the best online community on the net her at CBM.com.

I've been lucky enough to climb the ranks here at CBM and the almighty Galactus has chosen me to act as one of his Heralds (Jr. Editor). So if you ever need suggestions or help on articles, I am more than happy to help out; you can find me in the CBM chat quite often. I also assist Big G in his "Beat Galactus Quizzes," so if you feel like you have a good question for the next quiz or suggestions on making them work better and more smoothly, feel free to drop me a line.

I look forward to talking and discussing comic books and their movies with all of you on the site!

They are gonna have to. Thats like wasting money because everyone will pay to see a sequel and continued movies. I agree I wasnt impressed nor was I disappointed. The movie was predictable like you knew wat was gonna happen half the time but it was still a interesting movie. It was a great Origin story. Jason deserves the respect to be relived through new movies and they are the perfect people to do it. Shit do a Freddy vs. Jason 2 also

@ Tobuttica - Pinhead's better, lol.

Very disapointing news. Is this the end of Jason? If no sequel then... another reboot? Only thing I can think of is a prequel, which would be okay, I guess.
