Bumping this again for fun. If you're looking for a Ft13 movie to celebrate I have a few recommendations. If you want a classic experience I think 1-3 are all solid. 3 is where Jason as we know him finally comes into focus.
With it being Friday the 13th I figured I'd repost my Friday the 13th franchise live blogs from last year. I watched the whole series over 3 nights as part of my annual month-long horror marathon. #Gravehaunt is definitely coming back, although probably altered a bit with my new work schedule.
It all comes full circle. Let's cap this off. Friday the 13th (2009)
The franchise has evolved so much from the original film. I am so curious how it gets reimagined incorporating iconic elements that came later. I don't even know if it'll be Jason or Pamela at the end of this.

Oh thank fuck, someone finally filed to run in the Dem primary for my state house district. I've been checking the board of elections website daily for the past week. I was dreading the possibility of a Republican running unopposed in the general.

A few months ago @jacksoneflin.bsky.social invited me to watch the Back to the Future trilogy with them and @mikestknoll.bsky.social for New Years. What they did not mention is that Jackson had re-edited the films into chronological order. A very strange way to end off 2025, but we had fun.

On last quick post for #Gravehaunt before it's over for the year. I'm always looking for recommenations for more films to add to the list. If anyone who's been following these threads has any suggestions I'd love to hear them.

One last one to ride out #Gravehaunt this year Scream VI (2023). Let's do this.

Happy Halloween everyone! It's the last night of #Gravehaunt and we've got 2 more Scream movies to get though. First up is the 5th film just called Scream (2022). And I need to point out that it's odd to drop the number when a sequel released a year later goes right back to numbering again.

One more movie for #Gravehaunt tonight before I can sleep. The last of the original run Scream 4 (2011). A sizable 11 year gap between this one and the previous.

#Gravehaunt Night 30 continues with Scream 3 (2000). Williamson is replaced by Ehren Kruger as writer so I'm interested to see how that might change things or not.

#Gravehaunt Night 30 continues with Scream 2 (1997). While I did have the killer spoiled before watching the previous film I get to go into this one fresh so that will be a interesting change.

Tthe penultimate night of #Gravehaunt brings me to my franchise deep dive this year, Scream (1996) and its sequels. After covering Halloween, Friday the 13th, & Nightmare on Elm St previously, this is a natural next step. Unfortunately Scream 7 isn't out yet so I'll have to come back next year.

Getting close to the end of #Gravehaunt this year, but before I start the 2 part finale tomorrow we've got 1 more random film from the list. Tonight it's Last Shift (2014). I can't even recall why this went on the list, but that's never stopped me before.

Sometimes for #Gravehaunt a movie I know will be bad will go on the list solely because I need to see exactly how bad. For night 28 that tradition continues with Slender Man (2018).

Night 27 of #Gravehaunt the film is The Frighteners (1996). It's a horror comedy directed by Peter Jackson and starring Michael J Fox. Apparently a box office bomb which is probably why I hadn't heard of it, because this sounds like it's squarely in my wheelhouse.

Alright back at it tonight with #Gravehaunt Night 26 with Mandy(2018). I no pretty much nothing about this other than it stars Nick Cage, which while that doesn't always mean good, it does usually mean interesting.

Alright, it's Friday night and I have to work early tomorrow morning unfortunately. So I'm grabbing a quick one tonight for #Gravehaunt Hell of a Summer (2023). Finn Wolfhard co-wrote and co-directed this, which will be interesting. It's also a breezy 88 minutes.

#Gravehaunt Night 23 begins now. The dice have chosen The Omen (1976). I'm always a little nervous to watch a classic like this, especially from this era. When I watched The Exorcist and The Shining they did not live up to the hype. But clean slate here, let's go.

#Gravehaunt Night 22 Night of the Zoopocalypse (2025). I like to do 1 spooky animated movie every year but it's getting harder to find ones I haven't seen already. Next year I'll have I Am Frankelda (assuming it's streaming stateside) and Laika's upcoming Wildwood as options though.

Forgot to post beforehand but I had my movie night group tonight so #Gravehaunt won't have a liveblog. The movie tonight was Captain Clegg (1962). I saw this pitched as a swashbuckler horror movie, but probably not quite a good description.

Back to #Gravehaunt tonight. For Night 20 I'm going to see if The Blob (1988) is any better than the original. And considering that the '58 version is probably at the bottom of the 15 films I've watched this month it would be hard for the remake to do worse.

Alright time for Night 18 of #Gravehaunt this evening's film is The Blob (1958). It was actually the 1988 remake that came up when I rolled for the movie, but I figured I should watch the original first. And this year's marathon has been pretty heavy on recent films anyway.

#Gravehaunt Night 17 the movie is Dangerous Animals (2025). From the trailer and description this like if Captain Quint from Jaws was a serial killer.That's definitely an interesting idea, and I love Jaws, so high hopes for this one.

The movie the dice have chosen tonight for #Gravehaunt does actually have me anxious. After Midnight (2019) is billed as a 'romantic monster movie' that follows a 30-something man after the end of a 10 year relationship. And when this film came out that was an accurate description of me.

Alright after winding down a bit after tonight's shoot I'm ready for #Gravehaunt Night 15. Tonight's film is Ghostwatch (1992). Unique in that this is probably the first TV movie I've watched for Gravehaunt, but It's also clear that it needed to be released that way for artistic reasons.
