By the way I do love the way the STORM looks… I LOVE HD… )

I think you guys need to give them a break. It was 5 years ago and a fan film… not like they have millions to make it. Legends is a good effort and certainly is on the level of Cold Heart of Crystal Lake which we made 5-6 years ago as well.

I played Jason in the Storm (and Cold Heart) and Storm is more than just a fan film, its a ‘demo’ reel for JP to get his first HD feature film funded. He pulled out all the stops. He used Jason simply because he loves horror and Friday The 13th and knows it so well.

But we had HD, rain rigs, scores of lights and pro equipment etc etc. So its a different animal.

However, my only negitive comment about “Legends” is this… it was Feb and a cold 40 degrees (maybe less) when we shot “The Storm” and I as Jason was soaking wet from our rain rigs the whole night, as were our unpaid actors and actresses. I even pushed poor Crystal’s face into a freezing puddle at 2am. If your actors are serious about their craft and your project, they should get wet to make the film better. Just something to consider come casting time for Legends 2

But it was a hell of an effort. Seems like somebody put a lot of time and work in on it. The main character and his sister were good, but the rest of the cast was a bit loud for my tastes.

I think we need to get together and make a fan film.

I shouldn’t knock it, Hell, I can’t do it..lol. Plus those Storm guys work on real movies, so its not really fair to compare the two. But Tommy blah is right, the ending sucks.

It’s good not great. I know what I’m watching it’s a fan film and it has its limitations. The concept of the story is good because it’s kinda fresh and yeah it does take a few cues from Freddy vs. Jason. The characters do remind me of those in the 2009 reboot, remake, whatever. They are bit humorous as they should be right before you can’t wait to have them killed off. I was enjoying it and it only got more interesting during the night scenes.

The film was a bit of a treat like I said the night scenes were more fun because although they are missing that Hollywood color correction they got kind of a spooky night vibe that is not over exaggerated. While there were not a whole lot of on screen kills I gotta admit the baseball bat kill brought a huge grin to my face.

Now on to my little queefs and I say queefs because they’re aren’t huge strikes against this fan film like full blown farts. Ok first off the costume, cool I like that they went with the whole part 7 look, but why is it so dry and clean? They got the tattered look down but couldn’t it have been a little dirty maybe wet. Then there is Jason’s super human strength. The guy is supposed to be strong, but pick up a truck strong? Nah. Now another thing, where are the tits and the weed Jason loves to hack people over that, where are they? Last the ending hmm. . . a little too JGTH and FVJ and I’ll leave it at that.

Overall the film is fun and worth sitting down the 40 min. if your a diehard fan like most on this blog.

I give it 7 machetes outta 10
