JASON NEVER DIES [Camp Is Cancelled Part I]
Development Hell
07/05/22 • 50 min
5.0
Summer is here and with it comes CAMP IS CANCELLED, the new limited audio series from the Development Hell podcast. Every Tuesday in July we are unearthing a yet unmade 'Friday the 13th' sequel.
For the first of our four CAMP IS CANCELLED chapters we are uncovering JASON NEVER DIES, the still unmade follow-up to JASON LIVES from writer-director Tom McLoughlin. Following a group of misfit Catholic school girls, this snowy Jason sequel would pit the icon against an all-woman ensemble.
CAMP IS CANCELLED is co-hosted by Jinx!
