David Kagen (Sheriff Garis) Talks Jason Lives

sheriffgarris1Back in June, when the last three Deluxe Edition Friday the 13th DVD’s  were ready for release, David Kagen was talking Jason Lives. Dread Central posted his thoughts on the movie and the franchise.

One funny thing that did happen during our takes was at the point where I am supposed to crush Jason’s head with a rock,” Kagen said. “We had been using wind machines because of the storm going on around us and the rock I was using was made out of Styrofoam. So during one of the best takes, I hit Jason, throw the rock down and instead of staying put, the rock starts to blow away. Needless to say, that take wasn’t used in the movie.”

Read the rest of his thoughts at Dread Central and don’t forget, The New Blood and Jason Takes Manhattan are being released on DVD September 15th.

  4. STILL no word of when 4, 5 & 6 will get the Blu-Ray treatment???

  5. There is no word on the Blu-Ray for Part 4, Part 5 or Part 6 yet.
