But it isnt my vote. Im sure im going to get alot of hate mail on this one but Part 1.....I dont hate it, But there just wasnt much there for me. I do respect sean s cunningham and victor miller, But I was introduced to Jason before I was Mrs.Voorhees. If I had been born in the 70's or 60's and seen the original friday in theaters maybe my view on this would be different. Hardcore fans say there is a difference between "Friday the 13th fans" and "Jason fans". Im here to connect that bridge, I respect the franchise and all those who are apart of it. But Friday 1, Ive honestly only seen it all the way through 3 times. As I said there just isnt much there for me but its still a classic film and I know its place and what history it holds. My vote is going to be Nana Visitor for Friday 09. because my favorite part in original movie is the last 15-20 minutes? and it was just a correct way to start off the movie. The way they advertised"Did you know a young boy drowned here?" "His name was jason....and today is his birthday" Just chilling from the teaser trailer. This is the first time I think ive gone into detail about my answers on these bracket challenges. Betsy Palmer is the popular vote.

She's really scary person in that role. I think she added more pshological depth in Mrs. V's character. Look at her eyes and face when she screams "You should have been watching him!". I felt creepy. And she has beautiful intonations! To sum up: a deranged woman who thinks she manages righteous justice. I don't agree she's feeble. I imagine she was just exhausted (mentally and physically) when she met ALice. SHe killed 7 people before that so that's no surprise (remember she's not natural born killer, just a psychopatic person). ALso I think this MRs. V is a religious person. SHe radiates fanaticism (also keep in mind that "God Bless Our Home" saying in Jason's cabin which was apparently mounted there by her. So, my opinion - the most scary character since PArt 4 Jason in all friday franchise. Briliant performance. p.s. - also that flannel shirt and a skirt - nice refreshing outfit! p.p.s. - I like Betsy Palmer (she's the right for the early franchise) and hate FvsJ image. PArt 3 was scary. Nana Visitor! She’s really scary person in that role. I think she added more pshological depth in Mrs. V’s character.

The others did fine, but her Pamela is rightfully a phenomenon. Victor Miller said he wanted to create an "ideal mother" who also happened to be a murderer, and he actually managed to *do* it; Pamela would do anything for Jason, but neither does Palmer's version ever come across as a mindless devotee with no will or personality of her own. She's certainly Jason's mother, but they also feel like a team, even when he's not there at all. Part 1 all the way! Betsy Palmer. The others did fine, but her Pamela is rightfully a phenomenon.

Also pt3's ending was clearly a dream, and probably pt1 ending. I hope Adrienne comes back too. I like how the pt1 one cast was 'real'. They were attractive kids but not the soap stars we see in pt2 and some others, not that I mind that either. Like the girl who walks around saying "Muffin"? She was cute. Haha. Pt2 had some humor to it. Adam:

A bit off topic, but still Friday-centric related: Talented vetern stuntman Tom Morga, best known as the masked Roy Burns/pseudo-Jason in Part V was breifly for several seconds on tongiht's Late Nite with Conon O' Brien here in the U.S., as I don't know how many outside of the North American continant get's his show cause of my country's cultural imperalism or all of that or lack there of. But, if any of ya'll have a DV-R and recorded it, you can play it back to the part in the show I cought where in Conan was doin' a stunt segment with one of the best Asian-American gentlemen in the stunt business side of show business, and you can breifly see Tom in all black, like the other assistant, helping Conan get into the special fire suite for the breif fire stunt gag. Yup, it's him as we can see for the Deluxe Edition of Friday V and the His Name Was Jason doc. So I just wanted to post that, cause maybe now Jasonsfury or someone else can link up to it once the footage hits YouTube or somethin'. ;) Hey guys!

I voted for Betsy and then gave my reasons why even though it's a landslide win the other versions of Mrs. V were pretty cool on their own. I'm too lazy to write all that again though.
