Dan Gibbins and Keith Kollee

The Recovered Slasher Saga reaches the conclusion, as Dan and Keith take on the time Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes tried to reinvent Jason Vorhees and Freddy Krueger for a new generation, following the eras rules for a horror remake: bigger gore, too much CGI, and get a Supernatural cast member in there. Is this Jason the meaty murderer we'd been wanting? We certainly get a less cartoonish Freddy, but at what cost? Unpack the successes and failures of the remakes, and hear Dan and Keith's final rankings.
