We all go a little mad sometimes.
You know, it's Halloween. I guess everyone's entitled one good scare.
Sometimes, that is better.
Zombies have entered the building. They're at the door. They're coming in!
It is time to keep your appointment with the Wickham Man.
They're coming to get you, Barbara.
He's sick for fucks.
You've seen one too many movies.
Now, sit, don't you blame the movies.
Movies don't create psychos.
Movies make psychos.
We're a fucking woman in the back.
It's an excellent day for an accident.
Welcome to WHM on the screen, everybody.
I'm Andrew Jupe.
alongside Stephen Sadek and Eric Sisko.
We are here talking about the Friday the 13th franchise.
And I should say, oh yeah, dude, that's sexy, dulcet tone of Jason whistling in the woods.
No, Eric's going full on maniac murder, so he's going to kill everybody.
We are recording this right before we do a live commentary here at the Jacob Burns Film Center.
We're going to be doing a commentary track on Friday the 13th, Part 8.
Jason takes Manhattan.
However, we thought, inspired by our brethren, Chris Cabin, who's overseas maybe now.
Isis?
Yeah, I think he's fighting.
I thought it was Hydra.
I heard Hydra.
Oh, yeah, that's true, too.
The point is Chris Cabin's whereabouts are unknown.
But he did publish an article on collider.com a couple weeks ago.
He published a little, first of all, go to collider.com, look for Chris Cabin.
He's an associate editor there.
He's got a bunch of great stuff that you can read.
the website's fantastic. Yeah, he's
keeping busy over there on Collider.
But so he did a thing where he ranked
all of his Friday of the 13th movies
and his movies, the movies, in his
order of... He wrote and directed them all,
little known fact. Yeah, that's... You know,
he's such a busy beaver.
No, so he
ranked
worst to best
Friday of the 13th. So we thought
we would put out our
order. Right, because he was wrong.
And we have to
get to the bottom of this. Yeah, he was
dead wrong. No,
so we respect Chris's
opinion and we're going to give ours now.
And also, I've never seen any of these
movies before. I only saw
the two we did for the episodes, which were
part five
and part nine. And then
eight, because we did a commentary, I was like,
you know, I might as well fill in them gaps, which is what I did
in the last two weeks. I was like, hey,
some of these are pretty damn good. Yeah, you went
Friday the 13th crazy. Well, also, and then
you had to watch Freddy versus Jason for the episode.
Oh, that piece of garbage, too, yeah.
Yeah, it's so bad you just forget all about it.
So, so how, Steve, explain how we're going to do this.
Okay, we're going to, everybody get out a piece of paper at home.
No, no, no.
What we're going to do is we're just going to go chronologically from the first movie all the way through the newest
and kind of all kind of talk about it and call out where we had it on our respective list
and probably do a list round up at the end just in case you don't have a piece of paper handy.
Right, right, which, you know, I don't want to make you do work at home.
So it's fine.
Just sit back, relax, and enjoy.
And odds are you already turned it off.
So congratulations.
Yeah, no one wants to hear this.
And if they do, the one guy that listens to this is going to be like, well, they're all wrong.
Exactly.
They're all wrong.
Jason goes to hell is the best one.
All right.
So we'll start with original, the first ever, Friday the 13th.
Yes, with Mrs. Voorhe's doing the killing.
Yep.
With Kevin Bacon doing the dying and the spliff smoking.
And this has got Tom Savini in it, which I think, El
To me, elevates it pretty high on my list.
In it as an actor?
No, no, in it doing the...
Oh, he's doing the effects.
He's the one that figures it out.
He only did it for two of the movies.
And I think that kind of matters to me.
It absolutely matters.
And I'll tell you something else.
If I ever get the privilege of being killed in a horror movie,
I want the master Tom Savini to be doing the makeup on it.
If I ever get killed in real life, I'd like Tom Savini to do it.
I want Tom Savini to murder me.
Dude, how about this?
Tom Savini's coming at you with like a huge.
huge machete you have to yell out
come on sex machine you really do
right before he lays the death blow
I should also mention by the way
there is a Jason Vorhees mask on this
table Eric is wearing a Jason
Vorty's Christmas sweater
it's just it's a beautiful
celebration of the franchise we have going on
here at the Jacob Burns Film Center
just putting that out there and
I you know I just feel like this is
it's a cool one I really like Mrs.
Vorhe's sweater
She's got it
See, that's the sweater
They need to be selling
I do think the atmosphere
Is pretty good here too
Honestly
You've got all that dirty camp
You know
You get the shots of the woods
The lake's got some steam
Coming off of it
It's probably the most atmospheric
I think so too
It is
It's the one that well
It's kind of a real movie almost
It's pretty much a real movie
No it is
And you know
The other thing about it is
Why I like it to
You only get this
I think with the first two
You're pushing it with three
It's still the early 80s
And that means
It's feeling like the 70s, and everybody looks like garbage, but they look great at the same time.
Also, the first movie, it has the dude who's trying to, like, revitalize Camp Crystal Lake is just this Richard Dreyfus-looking motherfucker.
Yep.
You know, I haven't seen this guy before or since.
He's like a redhead Jerry Garcia.
Like, you know, I don't know what this dude's deal is, but he's great.
That's creepy.
He's kind of getting coffee throughout most of the movie.
Honestly, like.
A lot of Folgers crystals in this movie.
Like, I guess I should get back to that camp.
Meanwhile, his dream is in ruin.
Folgers Crystal Lake.
Oh, wow.
Oh, man, that's the new movie.
The Folgers Corporation buys the lake.
Oh, yeah.
And then they just make instant coffee out of the lake.
And then Jason's defeated by all these beans get dumped on them.
Oh, no, beans.
I'm in a coffee silo.
So where's everybody rating part one?
I had it number three on my list.
In terms of the third best of these movies.
Okay.
The third, I mean, and best is kind of weird.
It's kind of like watchability comes in there.
Watchability.
I do you think this is probably like the best of the movies maybe, but it's just the three on my list of like favorites.
Yeah, I mean, it's subjective.
And obviously, I think most people would be like, well, this is the best one.
It's the first one.
But, you know, some of us are watching these movies for different reasons.
Sure.
And I'm watching it to see a grown hulking man throw teenagers through windows and whatnot.
So I am reading it fourth.
Fourth, all right.
I know, it's down south.
I'm sorry.
I've got it at number one.
It's great.
I've got it at number one.
I can watch this movie twice a year, you know.
I mean, I get it.
Like, Jason's not around, and it's totally fine.
I kind of like that all these people are being murdered by a middle-aged woman.
It's just nice.
It's the whole mommy thing.
It's realistic.
Yeah.
Well, you know what Mrs. Voorhees is not getting that.
Arrowhead through a mattress and Kevin Bacon's throat.
No.
It's kind of Lori Metcalf syndrome.
I just love at the end, man, she is just a fucking lunatic.
She was a great actor.
And getting decapitated on that beach is pretty funny.
It's pretty great.
I do love how long the cat and mouse goes on between her and the lady.
Like, it goes on and on.
And it's like, let me go.
It's like the last 20 minutes of the movie.
Chris Cabin had it number four as well, Eric, actually.
Oh, there you go.
On his list.
And you're always going around saying you and Chris don't have anything.
in common well next time i see him we'll have something to finally talk about
that's long last all right uh get out your pillowcases gang here comes number two
oh man this movie he's just it's it's the first appearance of jason he's wearing a potato
sack with one do you think he was planning on cutting two high eye holes in it but was like
oh did i hear something better get to work only one eyehole he's kind of he's dressed a little
hipper in this? He could go to a nice
bar right now and like kind of hang out.
I mean, potato sack and all, because he's got like
a nice, like, Western shirt on, a nice pair
of jeans, I believe. He would do well
in two places, like a Crystal
Lake Roadhouse, which they go to in this movie.
They go to a Crystal Lake Roadhouse, but also
a really hip bar in Brooklyn.
Yes. He'd be able to pull off either
location. You know, I do think like
by next fall, the baghead,
it's going to be a trend. It's going to
nippy, it's good chilly out there in the fall.
who needs a beanie and a scarf
when you could throw a bag over your head
and I mean you get a nice little
you can tell if like 80 bucks
you put it like a really specified hole
for your earbuds to go through
oh absolutely yep get those things
just clip the little holes that's the thing
you get that bag and then you can clip all the holes
you want for all sorts of things
your mouth
you know what else
but anyway any notable
other actors in this week I don't think so
this one doesn't have anybody like
a burgeoning actor that like
kind of broke big afterwards. No, but it does
have one of my all-time favorite
franchise deaths, and that's that
poor bastard in the wheelchair that gets the
machete in the face and then
goes backwards down a staircase
in the wheelchair, which
in all these, like in some of the later
sequels, it actually finally stops
at number eight, but all these
series recaps, they
get their money's worth of this wheelchair
shot. You see this poor bastard fall
down the stairs in like five sequels.
that's the guy who's like desperately trying to not have sex with that one woman that's like hey dude let's figure it out hey dude let's figure it out is it you want to arm wrestle you want to play video games and she's like no I want to have sexual intercourse
all right so where did this land for you guys uh this was number hold on
five for me I wasn't too crazy about it pillowcase didn't really do it for me but I mean fine's still pretty high if you think about it there are 12 of these
well yeah it did make top five for sure right uh it's fun um yeah that the machete
the uh wheelchair that's pretty damn good and i do like um the ending with her and she's like
puts on it i like that he makes a shrine to his mother and that awesome sweater is there oh yeah
the sweater is there that decapitated head is there yeah did you do it jason jason jason no yeah it's
the thing that's funny about it is like they said it up that she's like a psych major yeah at the
beginning of the movie. It takes a genius
to figure that out. Well, naturally, at the end
of the movie, you would think, like, put that sweater
on, assume the role of the mother and just
start yelling at him.
I mean, that is also great about this movie.
It adds that to the mythos that anyone
Crystal Lake should have, like, a
training course for Jason. Everyone, like
learn a Mrs. Voorhe's
impression.
Everyone's got to half a down pat,
and then he can't do anything to anyone in the town.
You get that sweat. Everyone's wearing that sweater.
It's like when Ned Flanders takes over the world, you know?
Yeah. Well, Steve, this is also five for me.
Okay. And I do enjoy it. I do like the baghead and I do like the kills and I like the
thrills too. Come for the thrills, stay for the chills. I'm number two. It's the start of the
Jason Borges lore. All of these are going to be. It's just right in order. I have the most
boring list of all time. No, I don't know. It's just it's the start of that. That wheelchair
death's hilarious. It also has the death. One of my other faves. That dude who kind of looks like
Scott Bayo's doing that handstand.
Oh, yeah.
It's a post-coital handstand,
and he gets a machete right down
the old crotch factory.
Yeah, he has sex with...
Crotch factory.
I like to visit that.
He has sex with not Sarah
Jessica Parker.
Yeah, she looks a lot like her, yeah.
Yeah, this was still around.
This was, well, this was before square pegs even started.
Before that monster was let loose
on the earth. And Cabin
had it number five as well, Eric.
So we're three to one error, Andrew.
So you're wrong.
Overruled.
Turns out I'm wrong on that one.
All right, fair enough.
Number three, this is finally when we get our hockey masks.
I love it.
Yeah.
We've got Shelley in this one.
Shelly.
Someone I want to see fall into a vat of boiling acid.
Because this dude's death, which is just like getting his throat cut or whatever.
Off screen, by the way.
Off screen death also.
Well, he comes in his.
Oh, right, yeah, he does sputter in there.
Like, this dude is the most annoying character in cinema history.
Yes, he's responsible for the Jason Mask.
But I hate the pathetic loser jokester.
You know what?
How about you give up the practical jokes and just start trying to be nice to people?
You know what?
I will see your, what was it, loser of the franchise here,
and raise you the guy from number five, the big, the fat kid at the halfway house.
Yeah, Mr. Chocolate face.
Chocolate Barman, yeah.
Joey.
I believe.
Son of Roy.
This movie is so much fun.
And it's one of the few movies that 3D actually kind of works.
It's weird to say that I got the whole set.
I got the 3D glasses.
And I seen this a couple times and I watched it in 3D.
And I was like, this is going to be dumb.
And it is kind of dumb because there's certain shots that are just like, oh, oh, the
knife is coming right at you.
Right.
The yo-yo and all that stuff.
Oh, the yo-yo.
Yes.
Oh, it's so obligatory.
but it's kind of fun in that cheesy way
and the
a guy gets his eyeball shot out of his head
Oh yeah
Oh it's the squeeze
Is it the first franchise skull squeeze?
Yeah, it might be
Yeah, that eyeball pops right out
That's really good
The harpoon gun goes right at that woman
And then just the hockey mask
And it's like just thinking of the influence
This movie had
Oh yeah
I'll also say I really think that
Probably this is the best unmasked Jason
The way he looks
he's got that perverted smile throughout it like he's like really excited to kill that lady and it's like it's very creepy uh this movie also has those great uh it's like that biker gang yeah and they're like messing with the dude at like the general store and the guy like backs over their motorcycles and he's like a total nerd is it shelly that's it's yeah yeah and he's like this'll get me laid take that motorcycle gang uh so all right so where'd you guys have this one
This was number four for me.
Number two for me.
Wow.
I am at number five.
Wow.
For this one.
Chris Cabin at number three.
Three for three.
Look at Cabin.
Taking the easy way out.
Yeah.
The anaglyph 3D makes this a lot of fun.
I will also say.
All right.
So number four, Friday the 13th, the final chapter.
Wrong.
Yeah, first of all, wrong.
Second of all, we've got this.
is the fell dog makes his appearance
as Tommy Jarvis.
Yeah, this is another, like, as terms
of the, you know, three, you get the hockey match.
This, you get Tommy Jarvis.
Right.
Now we're off to the races.
Yeah, he becomes like a franchise staple
for a couple of movies.
And this one's just really, I mean,
it's pretty epic.
And Jason is throwing everybody
through Windows in this movie.
I mean, Windows meet Jason.
Windows v. Jason, Jason the Victor.
Oh, I always thought he hated teenagers.
Turns out he hates teenagers.
Turns out he hates windows.
He really does.
Dude, he hates windows way more than he hates teenagers.
Goddamn glassophobe.
And there's that weird guy.
It's kind of great this guy that amounts to nothing who's like a Jason Hunter.
Oh yeah, because like Jason killed his sister or something.
Yeah.
And then Jason just gets this dude too.
Just in seconds.
It's not like you figure he's going to be the guy at the end that's going to, it's a nice little fake out.
Is he supposed to be related to someone from three or two?
I think it's three, I think.
I think the main girl, I'm making that up.
Oh, that's fair.
You're just lying on the event.
I haven't seen some of these in a few years.
You just rewatched them.
I did them all, yeah.
Exactly.
Yeah, I'm, uh, memory not so great.
It's just in FYI.
Not so great.
Yeah, that guy's great.
You got the, oh, you know what you got in this is the whole like,
moms getting murdered in front of the kids thing?
Oh, yikes.
Because the Feld dog has like an older sister who's like the teenage connection
to the rest of the cast.
And it's, if I'm remembering, right,
it's one of those, like, they live next door.
And it's like, those rowdy people over there
are being loud and whatnot.
And then this woman just gets murdered
like by Jason in that house.
The dog lives through everything, though.
God bless.
You better not be killing dogs in these movies.
What I do, also, we haven't touched on it.
Eric, your favorite actor of all time.
Oh, yeah, one of many.
Crispin Glover is in this film.
Probably the greatest pre-death line of the franchise.
Ted, where's the corkscrew?
Ted, where's the corkscrew?
The corkscrew!
I don't know what vowels he's hitting in that sentence.
It's fantastic.
There's some he's hitting, some he's adding.
Like, he's really taken that sentence for a walk.
He's reinventing the language.
He's doing that dance, reinventing what we think dance can be?
I mean, this guy's a Renaissance man.
He really is.
And there's that weird part.
like he's got that creepy buddy that keeps calling him dead dick or whatever or dead fuck or something you're like oh yeah you're a cold fuck is that one of those things and he's like watch it they're watching like old-timey pornography that they find at some point that's just in this rental cabin and you're just like well that's an amenity
some eight millimeter nudie films from 1937 yeah why not i mean it's it's a it's a nice feature it's a nice way to put in uh
lewdness without
you know
I mean come on
guys in the cabin and woods
yeah this stuff happens
and Tom Savini came back
only for this one
this is the other one that he did
you know again the effects are great
and you know
Crispin Glovers cleaver through the head
is fantastic oh man take that
what were the Corey Feldman
Rod and Jason putting that knife into his head
oh yeah that's great too
the whole thing that's weird is like
Cory Feldman making himself up
to look like young Jason
that is a little weird right like how is it that he knows what jason look like as a kid there's some
picture somewhere that he gets there i don't remember clipping the weirdest cori felman thing that
chris touches on in his great collider piece that you should read uh is the part when
cori feldman's watching the girls across the way and he's jumping on the bed giving himself
a boner oh yeah totally it's like it's you're watching this kid like that's the first
moment he realizes all sorts of possibility yeah it's it's so we have
this movie with Jason running around, killing
people, and then we have this young boy's sexual
awakening. It's a coming
of age story, really? It is a
coming of age story. So
where did you guys have this one?
Numero uno for me? Favorite
Friday the 13th movie? It's the most
enjoyable. I think I'd watch it again tonight
if you wanted to. I think a lot of people
have that opinion. Let's mix it up for a second.
Where did the Great Cabini put us?
Chris Cabin agrees with me, which means I'm right.
Oh, wow. I put
it at number three.
Number three, well.
And I'm number four.
Wow, wow.
Yeah.
I'm surprised.
Yeah.
I'm a little hurt too.
Sorry.
So now we start getting into some murky watery.
Oh, boy.
This is the first of a few that we've done an episode on.
This is part five, the new chapter.
And I think one through four, or a new beginning, rather, excuse me.
Yeah, we did this as an episode, Roy the movie, basically.
One through four, I could watch any old day of the week.
And I've just seen these movie in the last week.
and they've really endeared themselves to me.
Yeah.
Five is complete trash.
Yeah, it's down there.
Yeah, it's dumb.
You get, like, unlike every other movie in this franchise,
you get mostly POV shots of the kills.
Yep.
And of the murderer's point of view.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Which is stupid.
I mean, because it's not Jason, so we can't like.
But it's like building up, like, could it be Jason?
And, you know, it turns out to be Roy,
who's dressed like Jason, but with a blue paint on his,
Hockey Mask instead of red.
Right.
Why not just show him killing people like a regular Jason movie?
And you know what?
I might have enjoyed this.
Because no one's going to be like, well, say, that hockey mask looks different.
Like, no one's going to care.
No one gives a shit.
Because in like half of these movies, Jason just picks one up off the ground.
And Jason looks completely different in every movie anyway.
Like, you know, like his skin color changes, the bulk changes, the actor changes.
And then if the twist at the end's like, oh, holy see this, Jason has.
red paint on his house. It would be like, oh, yeah, you're right. Wow.
When we watch it, I'll pay attention to that. Yeah, exactly. I mean, we did see our episode
for a lot more than that. But where did everybody have it? I have this at seven.
Matching. Yeah, that's that seven for me as well. I have it. Oh, boy. I have it at 10.
10. You match Chris Cabin. We're in a dead tie. Oh, wow. Look at that. I just, you know,
I get edge it over a lot of them because it's in the 18.
I really do.
I think that, yeah.
I kind of like, you know, some of that scene with,
oh, baby, hey, baby.
You mean when the dude is, as Cabin pointed out,
serenading a woman while taking a shit in an outhouse?
Yeah, it's kind of fun.
If there's anything that says young love,
it's a toilet serenade.
And that you've got like the weird goings-on of that, like,
weird commune they're on and this.
Well, that's what is weird about this is because for most other,
all the other movies,
it's like, you know,
Just teens out having fun, getting laid, smoking weed, you know, drinking beers and whatnot.
These are like damaged kids that need assistance.
Yes.
They're troubled.
They're abused.
They're sick kids at this halfway house.
And we're just getting them killed left and right.
I will say it has my favorite song in any of the movies, which is the one that they girl robots to.
Bells all mine with no life in his eyes.
Yeah, that is pretty sweet.
It's pretty great.
Yeah.
There's only one other song in the franchise.
that beats it and we'll get to it.
So now we go to 6, which is a kind of a, what do you call it there?
A return to form?
A return to form.
Jason lives.
Now this is where he's finally revealed to be undead or he wakes from the dead.
I think this is where he's turned into a zombie.
Yes, this is the one.
He's risen from the dead.
Because Tommy Jarvis, the third actor playing Tommy Jarvis.
Right.
Who's now like 20-something.
Yeah.
So he jumps ahead in time.
And Horshack.
Ron Polillo or whatever
Horshack's in the beginning, right? Yeah, it's
Horshack. He doesn't make it out of the prologue, but he's there.
Well, I guess he, because I think he's supposed
to play somebody else from the mental institution. That's why he's probably
a little older. Oh, yeah,
that actually makes sense.
Horshack looks crazy. Come on.
This movie's got
some great kills in it. You got
Jason picking up someone in a sleeping bag
and hucking him against a tree.
Yes, that happens.
You've got, well, you have the
great ones that are like almost at the same time it's uh the woman getting her face smashed
against the RV toilet wall oh yeah goes out the other side and then he goes up and murders
uh the court who's played by john travolta's nephew uh he stabs that dude and then court
flips the RV which is great it's like good like you've got a lot of car crashes in friday
the 13th movie this is also like he's getting really like superhuman strength yeah oh well because
there's a good head crush in this
as always which is what you want
he bends that dude backwards the sheriff
who looks like John Carpenter
yes
it's a I really have
it's funny too like the jokes actually land
it's trying to make jokes and they land
jokes there's also you know what's great is
this is the first time I believe
that yeah we've seen
Camp Crystal like be opened
for business like there's kids in peril
in this movie and there's that great scene
where it's like Jason's walking
through and like they're all being quiet or
whatever and he doesn't hurt any of the kids but
these two kids are like we are
so dead or something like that
which is fucking hilarious there's that great line of oh
what did you want to be when you were growing
when you grew up like you know it's like we're
fucked and he's like you know like oh my god
is he gonna do something and then he hears someone outside
and he turns and leaves and runs
oh right right because it's like you know Jason
and it's hard he feels for these little kids
he's like a little kid
and he's like a little kid in his mind right and he's like
oh man you had shitty parents that sent you to this camp
listen don't go swimming so yeah
I got a bombshell where I rated this
we also have our fantastic come on Jason your pussy
all right when he's like trying to get him to Tommy Jarvis yeah beautiful
I put this is number one
oh wow I have hold on your hat
clock and in it number two for me actually it's number three for me
it's two for Cabin as well cabin and I have the first
one and two in the same
spot there you go um yeah no i think this is one of the more rewatchable ones this is also
it ranks sort of higher for me too sentimental value this is the first friday the thirteenth movie i
saw i ever saw i saw it edited for television on like spike tv or whatever spike tv was called
in the early 90s tn tn't the super station oh no tnn wasn't that what it was called maybe i don't know it's
the right brothers channel the right brothers had their own tv channel and they uh they were the first
they figured it out
first in flight first in the air
on the air
then we go to 7 which is the new
blood
aka Jason versus Carrie
and this was originally supposed to be
apparently Freddy versus Jason
and swapped it out for a girl
with telekinetic power
kind of might be an episode by the way
a lot of these might be stay tunes
the ones that we're not doing this franchise
so some of this is we love movies too
you know like this is some of these
are beloved but still trashy enough
Um, this is, yeah, I mean, it's, it's kind of two different movies for me. It's like, she's got her story and Jason's doing his thing. Right. And at the end, they kind of meet by chance. Well, they're, like, they are really amping up this girl's backstory, which I just don't give a shit about it. I don't care about her work with Dr. Terry Kaiser who's, like, exploiting her to, like, mine the telekinetic ability. Yeah. You know, like, I don't give a shit. It's a weird path to go to him.
Yeah.
Next Man, you know what I mean?
I don't want to watch an X-Man fight Jason.
Jason in the school, what is that?
The Xavier School for a Gifted Younger.
Yes, I was at the school for scoundrels.
And I was like, that's not it.
I know Hugh Jackman's hanging it up, but Jason versus Wolverine.
Yes.
I think, I know people would hate to hear this, but I think Jason might be able to take the Wolfmarine.
Diderly possible.
Now, Jason, if you're going to be staying at the Institute, there's just a couple of rules.
we need followed around here.
Mr. Data will show you to your
quarters. Oh, now I'm getting franchises
confused. Wow, that would
be a great nexus. Is every single
Patrick Stewart
world is combined?
Yeah, in that movie,
Cyclops would die first because everybody
fucking hates that character for no goddamn reason.
Oh, I hate him. Oh, you're wrong.
He didn't get his due.
He didn't get his due. You know what?
Here's how you can tell if I hate an ex-man.
How useful?
how useful are they in
video game form
and he sucked in that arcade game
you know you're getting me angry
but that's fine
what are you going to do
go berserker on me Wolverine style
he might there's a Jason mask on this table
right now you never know who's going to
who's going to dawn the mask
I had this as number six
well me too
me too
oh look at that oh six six six
on Halloween
Chris Gavin had it as number eight
Oh, cabin, you fucked it up.
What an idiot.
Now we go to eight, which is the reason we're here tonight, which is Jason takes Manhattan.
It is 63 minutes until we hit New York City.
So that's some bullshit false advertising.
Nothing is taken.
Someone just sort of blows through town.
Yeah, it's a boat trip.
Jason runs a muck in Montreal, more like it.
Vancouver.
It's boat trip.
Cuba Gooding Jr.'s in this movie.
Horatius sends like,
gay guys. Oh, yeah, that's
all that movie is.
Yeah, I mean, this movie is like, we're
taking the senior trip on a
boat excursion
from Crystal Lake, New Jersey
area, up to Manhattan.
Somehow. Somehow along the way, we're
hitting the high seas, like
pirates. I mean, I think we were
talking about this thing. I could use Jason
versus pirates. Oh, absolutely. But they're like
Oh, versus Somali pirates. Oh,
man. I'm the captain
now. Machete. They both
have machetes. Oh, they would cross
swords. That would be beautiful. Or maybe he'd join up with the Somali
Pirates. We could use someone like you.
Yeah. Of sex trafficking.
Getting this iron container.
They'll just have like a catapult to shoot Jason onto a boat.
Oh, man. I love that idea.
Oh, wow. That's how you weaponize Jason, by the way.
You just drop them into locations. Dude, if the U.S. government could figure this out.
A day before you drop a Teen Beat in a Teen Beat magazine,
in his little container get him all revved up
I mean
if Jason existed
the thing to do would be to drop
him on the ISIS caliphate
Yeah totally dude
Those borders will be back to normal
In a day
Oh he'd take care of that shit in six seconds
Don't worry about it
It's a stupid movie
It's certainly not my favorite
No
I had it at 8 as number 8
8 o'clock in an 8
Oh wow I had it at 7
Number 9
You match Chris Cabin
Nice, finally.
Number nine is
our episode, Jason
Goes to Hell, finally.
This is us
cross it in the 90s
because I think 88 is the...
Correct.
Takes Manhattan.
It's already getting 90-ish.
You know, some of those people
look like, today we were watching it,
look like they're on Beverly Hills 902 and O.
Now we're finally full on in the 90s.
It's full on 90s.
This is where it just falls on its face
because this, like early 90s,
Gore and terror is
one of the worst things in the world.
And as I believe Chris pointed
out in his column, this is like
we're trying to do Cronenberg body horror
too, which is fucking horse shit.
Jason exists as a worm, I guess,
in this movie or something. Yeah, the little
monster thing. Listen, you start
talking bloodlines, that's where I'm
tuning out. I'm
looking at you two, Halloween franchise
and the nightmare franchise where
we're talking about Freddie having a kid, the
fucking the dream child and all that
shit, nothing. These things, these
monsters, don't have families. Also
play by your own fucking rules. Don't
have Jason become a ghost that can
possess people and do his own
jasoning in different bodies. No, I
want that reanimated corpse or
nothing. Yeah. Why are we waiting
until, if that was true the whole
time, why are we waiting until the ninth
installment to start talking about
ghosts and goblin? Because it's
crap. Also see our
episode on number nine for a lot more than that.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
I had this at number nine, which is low on the list,
but also not as maybe as low as some other people.
I'm shocked, yeah.
I mean, I kind of, I give it some leeway A,
because I love when the FBI takes Jason down.
I love that idea.
I love Jason on America's Most One, which he totally would be on.
I also love when that doctor eats his heart.
I think it's great.
Oh, man, that guy's just going to Chow Town.
But that's just me.
Ooh, last for me, number 12.
Wow.
Me too.
Okay.
Yeah, too.
And Chris Cabin had at number seven.
So higher than even I.
That's shocking.
That is shocking.
That's shocking.
If you're listening.
Chris, if you're out there, I just want you to know that that's shocking.
He doesn't listen to the show.
I do a podcast.
So number 10 is a little different.
We're going in a little different direction.
Oh, yeah.
Jason and space.
Space trucking it.
It's been like 10 years, right?
When did this come out, 2001 or 2001, something like that?
2001
2001 okay
yeah this is
Jason in the space
this is he gets frozen
by David Cronenberg
and some other people
and hundreds of years
passed by it's so hokey I mean
it's just like a research facility
is now occupying
crystal oh yeah the Crystal Lake
research facility can we all
just shut the fuck up
like come on
well it's like oh that's the cheapest land
in New Jersey
I guess is the idea
Oh, I thought you were going to say that's a line from the movie.
It should be, it would be great if demolition man got unfrozen as well.
And that's now it's Stallone versus Jason.
That would, yeah, Stallone would just kill him, though.
Or Jason, no, Jason would destroy Stallone.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
So, yeah, number X, where does everyone have this one?
I have it at 10 at 10.
So do I.
I have it at 8.
Because while it's stupid, so is almost everything in this franchise.
And I found it kind of fun
because I did a huge series we watched
them all in order.
And by the time we got to 10,
I was just like, oh, brother.
Yeah.
So it was like,
I can eat popcorn to this.
Yeah,
like a little pallet cleanser kind of.
I also saw this one twice in theaters,
by the way.
When it came out in theaters,
I was like,
nope,
that is the dumbest idea.
I was so against it.
And then when I finally sat my little cheeks down
to watch it,
I was like,
hey,
you know what?
Not as bad as I thought.
Well, I think also just like for me seeing it twice in theaters, one, I was seeing it for free, but also like I'd never been able to see a Friday the 13th movie in the theater before.
And while this is like just a sort of a Friday the 13th movie, I was like, I'll take it.
I was a big fan of the franchise at the time.
And so this was the first one I could go to, you know, and it was just like, oh rats.
And then I saw it and it was stupid and then my brother was like, you're going to take me to see that.
And I was like, oh, rats again, fine.
Yeah, Chris Cabin had it all the way at the bottom number 12.
Wow, okay.
I mean, it makes sense.
It does.
It's perfectly fine to have this at the bottom of a list.
It's true.
And then the next movie is just recently done on We 8 movies.
Freddy versus Jason, 2003.
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, we just did an episode on it this month.
Yeah, so we don't have to go through it.
But I had it at number 11.
Oh, me too.
Right second to the last.
I'll tell you what.
The list I'm working off is a list I made like maybe a year and a half ago on letterboxed.
And this was before we even thought to do an episode on this.
And I embarrassingly, and I said I wasn't going to rework my list.
Number one, huh?
No.
Well, it's number eight.
It's number eight, which I think after doing the episode on it and rewatching it again, like, I mean, it is a dog shit movie.
And if I were to redo this, like I'd put it lower.
but I don't know how much lower I'd put it.
I mean, this is murky water.
We're getting the bottom of crystal layer.
Yeah, it's murky lake water at this point.
It's like, oh, would you rather eat dog shit or cow shit?
It's like, um, maybe cow shit because he ate grass.
And then a year later, the question comes up again, and you're like, I don't know, dog.
It's smaller.
Exactly.
Exactly.
It's not a whole pie.
Chris Gavin's surprising he added to number five.
Right now.
Tweet him nastily on, on, on, on, on, on, exactly.
on the Twitter there. At Crabbin.
The last one is one of the
drunkest I've ever been in a movie theater.
It's the absolute drunkest
I've ever been. We were all, we, what
happened is we all went to some weird
firefighter bar.
We got so hammered and we
were like, Andrew, you asked the bartender something,
interesting. I convinced this
young woman to sell me
a bunch of beer without opening
the beer cans, which in this
state is against the law. Sure is.
Sure should be.
And we were, you know, because we were getting ready to leave.
By the way, this is the Friday of the 13th remake.
Oh, yeah, 2009, the reboot, whatever.
The platinum dunes remake.
And to answer your question, yes, we were too old to do this for sure.
Oh, absolutely.
But it was one year before we had movies started.
So this was like we had movies junior, little W.HM.
We didn't know any better.
The movie theater was right across the street from the bar, and I had a backpack on.
And I was like, look, can you sell me like four beers?
and she was like
I can't hope
I have to open them
it's the law
I was like
come on
and she's like
yeah but my boss
I was like
come on please
look at these eyes
I go
well yeah
look at these baby blues
right now I go
look
we're going to see
the new Friday
the 13th movie
and that's what sold her
she was like
oh okay
she totally understood
so we go
we go to the movie
we see it
hammered
I'm drinking
I'm drinking these beers
I may have told this story
the problem is
when you're in an
an adult person and you start drinking in the afternoon things,
the field, your capabilities as a person changed.
Oh, yeah.
You're like a half step from a caveman if you start drinking before five as an adult.
I distinctly remember when the credits came up on this movie,
I started having the most pounding hangover.
It was like, but like, boom, boom.
I went up to go to the bathroom because I pounded four extra beers,
like before the movie really started.
And we got there late.
I think I told the story
at a different ride
of the 13th episode,
but who cares.
Movie starts.
I have to go to the bathroom.
I get up.
I go to the bathroom.
We were late,
so it was really crowded.
It was opening night,
of course.
Theater was virtually sold out,
so we're in the front.
I come back from the bathroom.
I don't remember where we're sitting.
And it's this huge theater in Manhattan.
And I'm standing there,
and I'm looking around.
I'm like, I don't see those guys anywhere.
Where are these egg heads.
And then I look,
and there's an empty.
seat. And I'm just like, you know what? It's not like we're going to be talking anyway.
And I go up to this girl and I'm like, excuse me, excuse me. Is this seat taken? And I scared
the shit out of her. Of course he did. And she's just like, no. And I was like, okay. And I just
sat down and I fucking passed out after like 10 minutes. And I was kind of like waking up intermittently
and just being like, ah, the movie's still on, huh? Back to bed. I'm sure you really made that
girl's night oh i'm sure i did and i you know the funny thing was when the credits hit i opened my
eyes and i could feel that like my head had been tilted back for a while i was guarantee you
snoring in oh no yeah uh i had this at the bottom you know why because jason digs holes around
crystal lake and he's a master tactician in this one you can fucking keep it he's got an ongoing
chess match yes exactly i'm advancing my troops no no no
No, you know, just remakes in general.
It's cynical. I don't like it.
What I really hate about this movie is you replace
your typical somewhat realistic teenagers who get slaughtered
with like perfume models.
Yes, yeah.
And like this guy who like belongs in the Abercrombie commercial
and not in this movie.
Oh, there's all sorts of hunks and babes all over this movie.
Which they always do, but it's a little different.
And then, you know, in my opinion.
I mean, given all that and you know what, honestly,
it could be rated lower than it is on my list
but at the end of the day
it was murder and murder is nice
are you saying some of these movies don't have murder
no they do but there's dumber murder
this is I mean don't get
don't get me wrong Jason being
tactician is stupid but
I put it at number nine
okay that's fair because I just
five Freddy versus Jason and
goes to hell I dislike
slightly more by here
I understand it's at it's a
dog shit test. I have it at 11.
Okay. That you match Chris Cabin who has at 11.
Yeah. You know, Jason goes to hell. I just hate that
much more because it's the first one of movies we shouldn't be making.
We shouldn't be making this. We shouldn't be making X. We shouldn't be making
Freddie versus Jason and we shouldn't be remaking it.
But that fucking Jason goes to hell was the first time we shouldn't be still making
these movies. But yeah, no, I
rewatched it again after I wrote this list and maybe it would be like,
a tiny bit higher not by a lot
but the kills are all
boring in the movie first of all
except for the moment
where you find out Jason is a master
archer because he totally
shoots an arrow through the dude from
Veronica Mars head like while he's
driving that boat to be fair he's
always a master archer he's like
he could beat green arrow like anytime he's
he's using a harpoon gun forget about it
he split Robin Hood's arrow in half
at the archery contest
in Nottingham
Mary and fell in love with him?
Oh, I remember that one.
That's a good movie.
That's a great one.
I could go for Jason Warhe's time travel.
Why not?
Let's start it up.
He kind of time travels an X, though.
Exactly, but let's go back.
Let's have him start killing...
Go the other way?
Yeah, like sort of Army of Darkness.
So let's do a quick little list round up.
For me, I have number one
is best to worst.
Four, six, one, three, two,
seven, five, eight, nine, ten, Freddy versus Jason, then the remake.
Right.
All right.
Number one is six, and then I'm just going to say that.
Yeah.
So six, three, four, one, two, seven, eight, X, remake, five, Freddie versus Jason, and number nine, Jason goes to hell at the bottom.
Ah, okay, so I am best to worst.
one, two, six, four, three, seven, five,
Freddy versus Jason, eight X remake, Jason goes to hell.
Did I catch a nineer in there?
Were you calling from a walkie-talkie?
And for Chris's list, please go to Collider and read his wonderful article.
Right, yeah, Collider.com.
He recently tweeted it and his Twitter handles at Craven.
Now, we are supposedly coming into a new Friday the 13th movie in 2016.
Oh, really?
It's still slated to be released.
Right.
They pushed it back recently so it could be released on Friday the 13th, which makes sense.
Yeah.
It's done already?
It's been filmed?
I don't think so.
I don't really know because the thing about it is I stopped giving a shit about like set news and all that shit.
So it's like when a movie comes out is like when a movie comes out and like when it's done, it's done.
I will say if you go to projection list.com, which is an amazing website for like release.
lease schedules and companies that are putting out movies or whatever.
They have it here as Friday, May 13th, 2016.
Paramount is supposedly putting out a new one and it's listed as being in 3D, which
I mean, that's an ambitious release date too.
Usually these are August-y or you want to go Halloween or early, you know,
wintertime movie break.
Yeah, yeah.
It's interesting to go summer with it.
I mean, is it?
I think that means they're, you know, they're putting some, I don't know.
Thought into it.
I was going to say thought, but it's really just.
just money.
Yeah, money does not equal thought.
Well, Eric, you still had the best idea for a Friday of the 13th movie that hasn't been made.
I read that they might be doing it.
Oh, really?
This might be it.
I don't know.
I think they're doing it.
Setting it in Crystal Lake, but during the winter.
Ooh.
I mean, listen, Crystal Lake freezes over, right?
Yeah, man.
You know, a couple of these jerkoffs from town decide to play hockey on the lake.
Oh, my God.
It's right there.
It's always been there.
Listen, you just wrote 10 pages of that script.
You know what's actually interesting
When you think about it
These movies are so scratching
They're beating their head against wall
How do we make it different?
There's never been one in the winter
And you know
That's the only thing you need to change
Is a goddamn temperature
Now Jason's in a parka
Yep
That's so terrified
Maybe it's more sparse
Because it's more of a summer destination
Oh see that's the thing
Crystal Lake
Aside from being the Myrtle Capital of the world
Is a summertime
Doe off season resort town
one of my fave places ever
That's awesome
Jason versus the townies
Jason versus the townies
Listen you get a little
Small Town radio DJ in there
Cast me as the small town radio DJ
Snowstorm Jason versus car trouble
Not that he has car trouble
But someone else is like
Oh God hey buddy give me a hand with this
Because you know he's a Hulk and dude in a jumpsuit
Hey you extra from the Mentos commercial
Come lift my car
Hey, Chip, Chet, Kip, whatever mechanic name you got.
Come, please look them to the hood.
And just, you know, if you want to hire an ostracized pervert living on his own, I'm available as well.
Look at Paramount Pictures.
