Great build up with gory payoff. Bills is a close second. But i have to says Jack's never bothered me, its the kind of death that makes me laugh. Great affect, plus the shock and misdirection(which are good but I think its overpraised). The problem for me is that whenever I see it i think, How long has she been waiting under that bed with an arrow? while they had sex too, and why an arrow, its not at all practical weapon to stab someone with. While its not a big wtf moment in a series plagued with many far worse. It still bugs me. Marcie’s death is my favorite. Great build up with gory payoff. Bills is a close second.

Marcie, Bill, & Jack were my fav. But I think I may go with Bill. It just brutal with his throat slit, arrows to his torso, & another one on his eye. It was quite scary the first time I seen it. The way we see it out of nowhere on the door & hearing Alice scream at the sight along with the musical theme is why I'm going with this. Jack's death is very close though.

I think it's because he looked so young, and the fact that it's offscreen for the most part and the effect comes mostly from the girl's reaction, which is to flip out i always thought the first death (Barry) was the most shocking.

An axe to the face is such a simple, yet incredibly brutal, death...and plus, her character was quite likeable. That "in your face" (pun intended) quality is what I love about the death scenes in the first four films. The series definitely lost that as time went on, especially in the remake.

When I first watched part 1 many years ago as a little kid, that was the death that gave me a cold chill. Jacks death kind of set the scene up, which was just as chilling. I didnt see it coming. I was thinking they were going to cut away and not show much like Claudettes death. But wow, the axe to the face. I looked over at My Mom and She said \scary isnt it\? And I sort of nodded, I was scared shitless. And I especially love the uncut version deluxe. Theres about a second or two more that they show Her sliding down the wall.

The bathroom scene that leads up to her death was very creepy and suspenseful and was visually and musically satisfying. Marcie – axe to the face was my favorite.

As a kid when i saw the movie, thats when me and my friend decided to turn the movie off. We look at each other and we were both ghost white.... it was only a few years ago i rented f13 1980 and watched the entire thing. It actually the scariest movie of the series. Jack death was also great. Gotta go with Marcie death. As a kid when i saw the movie, thats when me and my friend decided to turn the movie off.
