The question is how many bad sequels can fans take? What's the breaking point?
All of these should be "immortal franchises" in theory. With titles like Halloween and Friday the 13th how can they not be? Nightmare on Elm Street might not have a timeless title compared to the other two but the idea should be something that could continue over many years.
I've been lightly outlining my ultimate Friday the 13th today. I want to make an original horror project. But just in case, maybe I'll try one day to do a Friday the 13th fan film. I got really excited about my twist on the idea and other elements.

I agree this will be a film series we will show our great-grandchildren. Freddy will endure. As he puts it, "Every town has an Elm Street!"
Yet I think Jason needs a resurrection once more, with plenty of twists. This project needs to happen, and happen soon. What's the blueprint here? A return to Crystal Lake (since when...Part VII?) or a different locale (please no outer space)?
