A man in search of his missing sister stumbles across a deadly secret in the woods surrounding Crystal Lake as
Texas Chainsaw Massacre redux duo
Michael Bay and
Marcus Nispel resurrect one of the silver screen's most feared slashers -- machete-wielding, hockey mask-wearing madman
Jason Voorhees. The last time
Clay heard from his sister, she was headed toward Crystal Lake. There, amidst the creaky old cabins and moss-coated trees, an unstoppable force of evil lies quietly dormant, patiently waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Though the police and locals all warn
Clay to stay as far away from Crystal Lake as possible, it's the only lead he has, and he isn't willing to give up until he finds his sister.
Clay isn't the only one inhabiting these woods either, because a group of thrill-seeking college students have just arrived at Crystal Lake hoping for a wild weekend of fun in the sun. Later, as
Clay and one of the recently arrived revelers search for clues, the infamous
Jason Voorhees emerges to show them just why the locals have avoided these woods for years. Could it be that
Clay's sister has already met a grim demise at the end of
Jason's razor-sharp machete, or is she still out there somewhere in the woods, waiting for her brother to come to her rescue?
Freddy vs. Jason scribes
Damian Shannon and
Mark Swift pen the screenplay for a remake executive produced by
Sean S. Cunningham (producer/director of the original
Friday the 13th).
