Voorhees Night of the Beast

Jason Pitts continues his ascension as a Director/Writer. This movie is absolutely incredible. The acting is perfect. The emotions can be felt by the characters and you can tell that the filming of this movie was fun. The lighting and cinematography was brilliant. Everything about it screamed big budget and yet, that's not even close to true. People are going to complain, but one thing I can say without a doubt is that this is a fresh and original idea that breathes new life into this franchise. Keep your eyes open for Easter eggs, they are in great abundance. I applaud everything about this film and check it out on YouTube!!

Voorhees Night of the Beast is a great micro budget indie horror that punches well above its weight. Well written and well acted by a great cast, it's an all around solid movie. The pacing is good, it never lags. The practical effects are well done and there are LOTS of kills. The movie looks and sounds good. Jason looks fantastic! Unlike many low budget indie movies, the sound mixing is very well done. At just one hour long, it's the perfect length for an indie horror. If you're a fan of Friday the 13th, or bigfoot, definitely check out this movie on YouTube!

Since the official franchise is stuck in legal purgatory, it is awesome to witness true fans saving the day with Friday the 13th fan films such as this.

Voorhees Night of the Beast is the crème of the crop when it comes to the latest batch of Friday fan films. You can tell everyone involved with the production was truly passionate about the project. Every ounce of the micro-budget was used to make this a truly fun experience to watch as a Friday the 13th fan.

The quality of the production looks better than most of the straight to DVD or VOD movies I have watched lately. The outdoor sequences including the final confrontation between the two main attractions looks amazing.

Writer/director Jason Pitts went out of his way to create a film which pays full respect to the legendary horror franchise. The script is full of callbacks to multiple films in the franchise and brings back several characters which really gave this an official Friday the 13th feel.

There are two standout performances in this film. The actor playing Jason Vorhees takes a lot of cues from Kane Hodder in his portrayal of the Crystal Lake legend and he really gets physical in the role. Alivea Disney shines as one of the main protagonists. She steals the spotlight in all of her scenes. This actress is ready for prime time. I hope to see her in more films very soon.

If you want to have fun again with a Friday the 13th film, you can't go wrong with Voorhees Night of the Beast. Please support these idependent horror films any way you can. Let's Go.

Voorhees: Night of the Beast has what would be on of the wildest stories in fan film history. However, the wild and absurd storyline couldn't really save this one from the horrible dialogue, chaotic story telling, and horrible fight scene. I wanted to love it but I just couldn't.

The acting in this one is very inconsistent. Some of the cast has a lot of experience and handles themselves very well on camera while others struggled to keep their performance grounded. Their emotions were not genuine and some of the scenes did suffer because of it. The awkward dialogue makes it even more worse when you put it all together.

My favorite thing about fan films is they are made by folks who care about paying homage to the original movie series and tell a story firmly planted at a specific part of the timeline. This one is great! It's a fresh idea that is a lot of fun. Easter eggs are plentiful if you're a true horror nerd. Well worth a watch or five.
