New Jason Voorhees Revealed? + Deathgasm 2 Interview
7No genre does franchising quite like horror. From nearly three decades of Scream to the resurgence of I Know What You Did Last Summer, your favorite monsters and killers are never really dead; they’re just taking a hiatus. But with more than 15 years since the last time we spotted the machete-wielding psychopath Jason Voorhees, fans are beginning to wonder if the Friday the 13th franchise will ever come back to the big screen. With Peacock and A24 hard at work with the prequel series, Crystal Lake, the hockey-goalie-mask-wearing slasher is finally part of the conversation again, and thanks to one of the stars of the upcoming Deathgasm 2: Goremageddon, we have an incredibly promising update to share.
In support of Deathgasm 2: Goremageddon’s world premiere at Fantastic Fest, Collider’s Perri Nemiroff sat down to chat with the project’s director, Jason Lei Howden, and two of its stars, Kimberly Crossman and Adam Scherr. For the latter, the blood-filled sequel serves as his latest venture into cinematic projects, having previously performed under the moniker of Braun Strowman in the WWE. Now gaining wider notoriety as an actor, Scherr said he has plans to not only continue his Hollywood takeover but is incredibly hopeful that he’ll be the next actor to put on the mask of Jason Voorhees and wreak havoc on unsuspecting teens.
Hear all about that and the making of Deathgasm 2: Goremageddon in this interview!
Here's the Fantastic Fest synopsis for Deathgasm 2: The story picks up with Brodie, a few years after surviving the last demon apocalypse, still wallowing in his own self-pity, jobless, loveless, hopeless, and just reckless enough to make things interesting. After seeing an ad on TV for Metal Quest, the local battle of the bands, Brodie picks himself off the ground, wipes the vomit off his chin, and heads to the graveyard to put the band back together. With the help of some familiar black magic, Brodie and his freshly risen rock zombies are destined for victorious metal mayhem with nothing standing in their way besides an insatiable hunger for human entrails and a lactose-intolerant emo band.
