What I have fond memories of was renting the Final Chapter at my friend's house for a Halloween overnight. His parents were sorta into it, but they were not fans of all the sex scenes. The gore was great, and the jump scenes were marginally effective, but the effects really worked, as the last scene was just sickening. I think my first was the first, but that wasn’t too long ago.

In the next couple years I would catch the rest from the USA marathons and such.

The video store near where I lived, would let me rent anything. They didn't seem to care how old I was. The funny thing is that I never got carded till I was 17, trying to rent a Grand Theft Auto video game. I guess that's where they draw the line... lol The Final Chapter, when I was 9 years old back in 2024… The video store near where I lived, would let me rent anything.

I was born in '82, so; I was proly' around 5 or 6 (it was out on VHS when I saw it). Idk how, but I had gotten a copy of it and I used to watch that movie everyday (sometimes multiple times in a day). Anyways, funny story is my mother threw it away and I was so bummed and so I asked her: "Why mommy, why did you throw away my favorite movie?". With a slight exhale of breathe she replied: "Because son...I don't want you to grow up to be a 'serial-killer!". I remember telling her: "But mom...I love 'cereal'...i'd never 'kill' it!". lol- Yeah, I honestly didn't have any clue as to her meaning and all;but, 22 yrs. later and I got my beloved pt. 6 back (as well as the rest of 'em) and i'm a 'normal' working adult who just has an absolute 'love' for these films, and in no way do I think it's 'un-healthy' or whatever. Even as a child I don't think it was 'bad' to watch "them", I guess it was just very fascinating to me (still is) the whole 'Jason' character. I believe that Friday the 13th gave me a sort of 'place to go' as a child and I totally came out alright. It's not like these movies are gonna' "make" people turn into a bunch of masked blood-thirsty killers...it's simply E N T E R T A I N M E NT folks!

I was maybe 7 or 8 at the time and the movie scared me to death at that young age. When Jason burst out of the water at the end. I jumped right off the couch and ran behind it. I peered out to watch the final moments. One of my favorite horror movie memories. Was hooked after that film and seen every other Friday the 13th since then in theaters.

I was 14 when I saw the film and I enjoyed every minute of it. After that I tried to see each film as often as I could. Saw Part 3 on TV later in 88 and the other films after, I saw them out of order,but I was able to see them all. The only ones I saw in the Cinemas were Jason Takes Manhatton, Jason Goes to Hell, Jason X, Freddy Vs.Jason and the Friday remake. It would have been nice to see all of them in the theater,but at least I saw 5 of them in the theater. What I liked best about the films what drew me to them was how stories played out, you never knew what Jason was gonna do next and how he was gonna kill his next victim. I also wanted to see Jason's look for every film,but most importantly how he looked without the mask! After seeing his face in "The Final Chapter" I was drawn in to seeing film after film so I can see how much he changed from each film, plus something about that hockey mask sent fear down my back, but it was a excited fear. Jason and Friday the 13th will always be a part of my life for years to come. First one of the films I saw was “The Final Chapter” which happened to be playing on HBO around 1988.
