I know What You Did Last Year

It doesn't make it fair but it's legal and there's not much that can be done about that fact. It sucks but I saw that Last year stuff, I can see why some of the claim says it does. Inspiration or ripping off, it all seems pretty close to me in this case.

If they didn't use any assets, locations or anything otherwise straight from Friday the 13th there is legally nothing that can be done about it. If it is not using any actual copyrighted material then they have the complete legal rights to proceed with the game. If that was the case not a single mockbuster or a parody would ever have seen the light of day.
