So, now we have completed our Production Crew Challenge. The results overwhelming show that the fans truly think that the original movie and The Final Chapter are the definitive movies in the franchise, and rightfully so.

VOTING IS CLOSED Well, we have come to the end of the Production Crew Challenge. Thus far, we have created the definitive production of Friday the 13th. Thanks to those people who commented the past two days on what they would like to see as the final component of the production. I even received some [...]

I can’t say that I was too surprised to see the results for this part of the production. There are a lot of talented effects people and companies involved in the series and it was interesting to see where the votes went. I was, however, surprised by the low turnout of voting. I suppose our [...]

There have been some truly spectacular makeup effects that have been created throughout the 30 years of Friday the 13th. Everyone has their favorite artist or company.

I hope that we are able to mix in more elements from later installments like Joesph Zito from The Final Chapter. However, it is all [...]

UPDATE: A HUGE ERROR ON MY PART WAS POINTED OUT TO ME AND NOW WE HAVE A DILEMNA. THE FINAL CHAPTER AND A NEW BEGINNING DID INDEED HAVE PRODUCTION COMPANIES. I AM GOING TO EXTEND THE VOTING THROUGH TO THE BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEK. FEEL FREE TO CHANGE YOUR VOTE IF NECESSARY. With the reboot [...]

Well, the overwhelming majority ruled on this weeks challenge, however, there was an unusually low amount of votes this go-around. I’m hoping that had to do with what was being voted on this time. Anyways, thanks to those who voted and the upcoming week’s challenge should be a good one! Voting Results for The Composers [...]

Now, I am sure that many of you will see this and think to yourself, why are we even bothering to vote. Well, there were similar instances, like this one, where it may seem blatantly obvious who should win. However, there are people who may think differently than the majority and should have an opportunity [...]
