'Friday the 13th' doc 'Crystal Lake Memories' slashes into August

There is no question that the Friday the 13th series is perhaps the most inspirational and longest ongoing series in horror. A few years ago, we received a documentary titled His Name Was Jason, and coming this August, some of the people that worked on that documentary are bringing us another: Crystal Lake Memories: The Complete History of Friday the 13th.

This word comes from Shock Till You Drop, who also noted some insight on the upcoming documentary:

From Fridaythe13thfranchise.com: With a running time of approximately seven hours, Crystal Lake Memories: The Complete History of Friday the 13th explores each film – from the seminal 1980 slasher hit to the 2009 reboot, including the hit syndicated television series – in chronological order, and promises to be the definitive retrospective on one of the most enduring horror franchises in motion picture history.

Over seven hours! As a huge fan of Friday the 13th, you can guarantee I’ll keep close watch for more news on this one. The documentary will hit Aug. 27.

New Bigfoot docs stomp onto scene

Will this be the summer of Bigfoot? Unlikely that the Squatch will dominate over Tony Stark and Iron Man 3 but there will be two new films available in the next few months that involve historical reports about the Notorious B.I.G.(foot).

The first is Raw Footage Films' Mountain Devil: The Search for Frank Peterson, the story of a man who claims to have had ongoing encounters with Bigfoot while owning a cabin in Pennsylvania. His name and location has been changed, but the story is based on his alleged interactions with the beast.
