Friday the 13th and Jason Voorhees had been mixed up in various legal ownership shenanigans. There hasn’t been an officially licensed film since the 2009 reboot.

However, it appears that things have been sorted out, and thanks to Horror Inc. and Jason Universe, he is heading our way with the Sweet Revenge short film, marking the beginning of it all.

A group of teenagers, arrives in Crystal Lake Camp, but one thing they don’t know about this place, is they were being stalked and mysteriously killed by a mysterious serial killer who’s out there for revenge.

The short film is written and directed by Mike P. Nelson (2021’s Wrong Turn), who had this to say about the project when speaking with Variety.

I love these movies, so how can I keep the vibe, especially of the first four, which are my favorites? How can I bring that feeling when you watch those movies for the first time? I wanted to do that again: Keep the mythology, keep where Jason comes from all intact. I didn’t want to restart anything, but what if we introduce a new character who maybe gives us a bit of insight into what Jason’s path might have been? I wrote the script and we put the thing together in pre-production, shot it in seven days, post was 3 1/2 weeks and it’s now coming out.

The film stars Ally Ioannides, Natassia Wakey, Toussaint Morrison, Tim James White, and Chris Carlson. Schuyler White is now wearing the mask as Jason Voorhees.
