Currently, Michael Myers has been resurrected for another round of slashing and dicing of teens in the reboot/remake of the highly anticipated Blumhouse’s Halloween sequel.
Meanwhile, the reason why no one will be seeing a Friday The 13th movie anytime soon is it’s been put on ice because of a legal battle. Read on…
Jason Voorhees has struggled to catch a break because the Friday the 13th franchise is currently on ice due to an ongoing legal battle involving Victor Miller and Sean Cunningham’s Horror Inc.
A new twist has arisen this past Monday brought a new twist in the saga: Friday the 13th: The Game, Gun Media, and IllFonic’s acclaimed survival horror title, lost its DLC support due to this messy lawsuit.
It requires a qualified lawyer to come in and lay everything straight. Thank the heavens that Friday the 13th Part III victim to the machete star Larry “Shelly” Zerner has access to Twitter who has now brought some much-needed clarity to the situation.
It was revealed during a recent interview between Larry “Shelly” Zerner and Slash N Cast:
Are you ready for this, because he says STOP pointing the finger of blame at Victor Miller!
I’ve seen a lot of people dragging Victor [Miller] online as if this is his fault. It’s not. The Copyright Act includes a provision that states that an author can terminate any transfer he or she has made after 35 years. Congress added this provision to allow creators (writers, songwriters, etc.) who sold their rights cheap to have a second chance. In the case of Victor Miller, he was originally paid about $9,500 for the original Friday the 13th script, which turned into 12 movies, a very successful video game and lots of Jason Voorhees merchandise. This franchise Victor helped create made hundreds of millions of $$$.
