Sweet Revenge

This short film offered an intriguing interpretation of Jason and the Friday the 13th franchise. While Jason's current appearance is somewhat thin, for a cinematic adaptation, he would benefit from a more robust physique. The story itself was captivating enough for a short film format, and Crystal Lake looks great, just as you'd expect. This serves as a promising foundation for further exploration and development.

Going into to this I had little expectations. The fact that it's a short movie is the main reason. However with that said this is beautifully shot. The location is gorgeous and the characters are very good. The final girl is really good and I loved the ending. If this is what we can expect movie forward I'm all in. Jason looks intimidating and the shot of him picking up the girl was scary good. I would've liked to had seen a few more kills but other than that this was very intense and well made. Tim Treakle.

Ok, it's not as bad as i was thinking it would be but this type of movie (slasher) can't or almost always can't be (or SHOULDN'T BE!) crammed into a 13 minute short.

I do give this short film credit for having music that is OVERTLY Harry Manfredini-ish (some parts seemed to be bordering on copyright infringement-ish). But the music in this majorly helps the film in every way. As much as i love the 2009 reboot F13, i do wish they had brought Manfredini in to score that film (or at least use music in it similar to this short film's music).

Ally Ioannides who plays Eve in this short film also played Tilda in "Into The Badlands"!! I've adored her ever since that show!

Big question, why didn't Jason kill her if he actually did pull her under the water?

Oddly enough Jason is hardly even shown in these 13 minutes. Lol.

And why did she have 2 major black eyes when she came back to the campsite (or why was she sporting the Ricky Raccoon/"smokey eyes" eye makeup look? Lol).

Lastly there should have been at least one or 2 more onscreen kills. I think there's only 1 on screen kill (that i do admit was pretty cool!). But again, an F13/Jason projects SHOULD NOT BE A MERE 13 MINUTE SHORT FILM. It's a waste of IP and character, etc.

This is pretty bad an insult to Jason and Friday the 13th as a whole this just a bland advertisement for apple orchard alcoholic cider and even though it subtle it still a disappointment like how Jason is this skinny guy in a hockey mask with no menace at all. I just feel bad for the Friday the 13th IP since it just a marketing gimmick at this point with the HHN house to this ad it feel like no one cares anymore ,ore it just sad at this point.

This is not a short film. It is a commercial for Angry Orchard beer.

The "film" wasn't made to be a horror movie, it wasn't meant to be art. It is a cynical product meant to shill other products.

This is disrespectful to everyone who worked on the previous Friday the 13th movies and all the loyal fans.
