"Slasher Flicks: 'Friday the 13th' Duology Returns to Theaters in Time for a Horrifying Double Feature"
This Friday, horror fans will have the opportunity to relive the campy terror of two classic films from the iconic 'Friday the 13th' franchise. Regal Cinemas has announced that it will be showing both "Friday Part I" and "Friday Part II" in select theaters nationwide on this unlucky day.
While neither film received universal acclaim upon its initial release, they have since become beloved cult classics, with a significant following among fans of the genre. Both movies are relatively short, lasting around 2-3 hours total, making them an accessible double feature for those looking to immerse themselves in the world of Crystal Lake.
The films' commercial success cannot be denied, as both "Friday Part I" and its sequel made their budgets back at the box office. Although they may not have been well-received upon their initial release, they remain important entries in the franchise due to the enduring popularity of their respective protagonists: Pamela Voorhees and Jason Voorhees.
In a tweet announcing the re-release, Regal hints at an upcoming "something big" happening on November's Friday the 13th, sparking excitement among fans. This suggests that A24's highly anticipated 'Crystal Lake' prequel series for Peacock may be worth keeping an eye on, as it will likely be released in late fall.
For horror enthusiasts looking to spend a chilling evening at the movies, this double feature is an opportunity not to be missed. So mark your calendars and grab some popcorn β it's going to be a bloody good time!
