10
years ago a fan film would never generate any buzz unless it was
groundbreaking, or extremely bad. However, now is a completely
different story. When you combine filming equipment the cheapest it
has ever been, and every other FX channel giving how-to videos on
everything from makeup to prosthetics; the difficulty has decreased in
making a good film.

I was sent Jason Rising recently. I
have watched more fan films than I can count, and most are average to
awful. But this one was one of the rare ones. It is a solid
(non-canon) Friday story. Anyway enough with my commentary.

Adrienne
King is Back as Alice Hardy in Friday the 13th Fan Film Jason Rising. Directed
by James Sweet, fan film Jason Rising can be watched in a
57-minute movie written by James Sweet and
Vincente DiSanti.

Jason
Rising goes as followed:
Wessex County Police Officer Pete Daltry (Kyle Vahan) and his Deputy
Eve Glover (Anna Campbell), along with U.S. Marshals Jed (Jason
Reynolds) and Bear (Jerry Bell Jr.), hot on the trail of three
escapees (Lisa Sorenson, Jennie Vaughn, Elizabeth Garrett) from the
Wessex County Corrections Farm. Soon after realizing their chase has
led them onto the cursed grounds of Camp Crystal Lake, Daltry quickly
discovers that they are the ones being hunted by the undead mass
murderers Jason Voorhees (Dan Kyle) and his deranged mother Pamela
(Alyxandria McCormack).”

Honestly
it would make an excellent addition to the franchise. Even if the film
isn’t to your liking, it keeping
the franchise alive and in the public eye.
Because who knows how long it will be until we get a new Friday with
all the legal battles.
