30 movies that need the Lego treatment so bad it’s wrong

9. Friday the 13th

Premise of the movies: Who doesn’t know Jason, the hockey mask wearing serial killer? Friday the 13th was one of the first slasher flicks, helping to create the genre and pushed it forward year upon year. There have been countless sequels, with some mixing other horror movies for fun.

The original movie told the story of a young boy who had drowned while on summer camp because of the lack of care from the camps’ adults. The boy’s mother would kill young adults, with the belief that her son was telling her to. Jason actually didn’t show up until the second movie!

Why they need the Lego treatment: Friday the 13th took on the feel of Psycho, where it was someone killing believing they were directed by someone who was dead. Lego would open the world of the horror, show more flashbacks, memories, and storytelling to further develop the complicated feelings felt in the first movie.

The Lego treatment is the only way to continue the franchise. It’s slowly dying out, but the original movies remain popular. There was an attempt to reboot the movies in 2009, but it just didn’t work out as too many people were loyal to the originals.

A Lego movie would give a new take and help to bring the tale of Jason back to life. It would help to reboot the franchise without the fear of inadequacy.
