Retro Slashers Headlines
Looks like a lot of fun. Too bad I am way far away from that part of the country. I wonder how fans still react to Warrington Gillette being att these conventions knowing he really didn’t play much of a part in the movie.
About Friday The 13TH Part II, Warrington Gillette Played Jason through-out the whole film. Read the credits Warrington Gillette as Jason.
Damn…wish i lived in CA. It\’d be sweet to get a poster or hockey mask signed by Ted White.
Entertainment Agent, I must correct you and say that even though Warrington Gillette played the part of ‘Unmasked Jason’ in the films climax.
Stuntman Steve Dash (listed in the credits as Jason stunt double) performed the role of Jason throughout the entire film, except for a few footsteps and the scene where Jason was unmasked.
Glad I could clear that up for you. No disrespect to Warrington, he’s really a great guy, I’m trying to interview with him for the site.
And to be clear with everyone here, Warrington did deserve credit for the role he did play, but I don’t think he deserved full credit, but I don’t make the rules, it could of been a union deal or something, I don’t know.
Here’s the deal. Warrington Played Jason through-out part II. Not only do I represent Warrington. I also represent Bill Randolph, Lauren Marie Taylor, and Jack Marks - who were all in part II as well. I\’M am The Agent to these people. They all say that Warrington is the man.. That he played Jason through-out all of part II. End of story.. Glad to be of assistance to you.
Does anyone know if a RSVP is necessary? I live in So Cal and I’m definitely trying to go.
I kinda felt like a douchebag for even asking my wife if she was cool with going to this (Feb. 3rd is her birthday) but she’s completely cool with it. My baby rocks.
