Video Tour of Camp Crystal Lake

Video Tour of Camp Crystal Lake

Not many fans of the franchise are able to get onto the camp ground of Camp NoBeBoSco, and if they do, they have to be pretty quick about getting their shots before getting kicked out. For those of you that have not seen this video, this was shot as a class project for a local [...]

Bracket Challenge Round 3: Ginny vs Ali

Bracket Challenge Round 3: Ginny vs Ali

The other matchup this week is really, really close. Closer than I thought it would be. Will this new matchup be anywhere near as close? Ali had multiple lives against Jason. Can Ginny deliver the knockout blow as she did to Jason in his shack? This should be another fun vote. Which character should move [...]

Will the allegiance to Ralph come to an end this week? Or, will Ralph be able to overtake Tommy Jarvis and move one round closer to facing off against Jason of The New Blood?
Crazy Ralph (Friday the 13th 1980)
Remember everyone, God sent him. Do you need anything else? I still can’t believe how in shape [...]

Sleepaway Camp on Friday the 13th

Sleepaway Camp on Friday the 13th

We’ve pretty much come to an agreement that Freddy Vs Jason couldn’t satisfy to the fullest extent, so why not match up two killers who play on the same playground….camp!
Jason was first introduced as a boy who drowned in a lake. Angela was introduced as a girl/boy who ended up in an accident in a [...]

Friday Conversation: Your First Theatrical Friday Experience

Friday Conversation: Your First Theatrical Friday Experience

I first saw Jason on the big screen opening weekend 1988. It was The New Blood and my dad foolishly took me to see the movie. My mom strongly disagreed, but Dad thought it would be no problem. During the movie there were about 6 drunk bikers yelling obscenities at the movie. That, along with [...]

Friday Conversation: Your Favorite Jason Actor

Now, which actor is your favorite to don the hockey mask or sack? Your reasons can vary from the way they played the character in the movie, to your personal opinion from meeting them in person, or how they have come across in an interview or other roles you have seen them in. It doesn’t [...]

Bracket Challenge: The Best Jason Voorhees Character

Bracket Challenge: The Best Jason Voorhees Character

VOTING HAS CLOSED!
Now, I want to set this straight right off the bat. This bracket challenge is to pick the best Jason character, not the actors behind the mask. There were many people that contributed to the Jason character in Part 2. Some were stand-ins for hand and feet shots, others did the window crashing [...]

Friday the 13th Trailerpalooza

To kick off our favorite Friday of the year, I thought we should all watch the trailers for every movie made in the franchise as a warmup to our movie marathons. There’s a twist with these trailers as some of these are “modernized” to look like what trailers would look like today. Which trailer is [...]

Bracket Challenge Round 2: Gang of New York vs Young Jason Voorhees

VOTING HAS CLOSED!
Ah, the end of Round 2 is here and we have saved the best for last…..? Well, at least it’s an interesting matchup. Who would have ever thought a young Jason Voorhees that jumped out of Crystal Lake to grab Alice and take her down to the bottom of the lake would now have [...]

A visitor to our site, Jason, mentioned yesterday in the “Spend Friday the 13th with fridaythe13thfilms.com ” blog that he was going to see Part 3 in 3D in the Cleveland area. So, I dug around and found one theater in the area that is showing it. Not sure if there is another theater that [...]
