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 [...]

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

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.

Friday the 13th Trailerpalooza

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 [...]

Camp Blood Concept Board Game

Camp Blood Concept Board Game

I have always wanted to own a Friday the 13th board game, but figured it would never happen. An ambitious member at horrorbid.com took it upon themselves to get the ball rolling and have created a board game concept called “Camp Blood”. It is still in development phase and they mention they are submitting their concept [...]

Part 3 Alternate Ending Jason Mask/Bust

Part 3 Alternate Ending Jason Mask/Bust

I found these pics at Horrorbid.com. Known as “Brute”, this mask accurately depicts Stan Winston’s makeup for Jason in the alternate ending to Part 3. The alternate scene and Jason makeup were ultimately scratched, but I still think it’s a cool look for Jason and probably a better ending as well!
Alternate Ending Photo of Jason [...]

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 [...]

Friday Conversation: History of the Hockey Mask, What is your Favorite

Jason has worn many different masks. It started with the Sack in 1981 and then the original clean mask with red chevrons in 1982 where it then incurred an axe mark to the top left. The mask was worn by an imposter with blue Chevrons in 1985, then an undead Jason reaquired the mask in 1986 [...]

Friday the 13th (1980) Press Book

Friday the 13th (1980) Press Book

I really love press books from the franchise. The book for the original is great, not just for looking at the different size ads, but for the actor mini-biographies that are printed inside. I think it’s  fun to read what these actors and actresses were involved in before performing in Friday the 13th. I like [...]

Now we will we will see a true test of fan loyalty. The trend has been mostly characters from the original 4 movies progressing to the later rounds, however, I think Sheriff Garris has a solid following and is one of the better characters in the series. Everyone loves Officer Dorf, but who really [...]
