"Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan" (1989) with Charlie Cotter, Nicholas Pepin & Laramy Wells
Start spreading the news... Jason is leaving Crystal Lake today!
In this episode of the 80s Flick Flashback Podcast, Tim Williams and guest co-hosts Charlie Cotter, Nicholas Pepin, and Laramy Wells punch their tickets for the SS Lazarus to discuss the eighth installment of the legendary slasher franchise: Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan.
It’s the movie that promised the Big Apple but mostly delivered a big boat. They dive deep into the murky waters of this 1989 sequel to discuss the bizarre plot holes, the confusing geography, and the sheer absurdity of Jason Voorhees stalking Times Square.
In this episode, they unpack:
🚢 The "Manhattan" Myth: Discussing the infamous decision to set most of the film on a cruise ship (and Vancouver).
💀 The Kills: From the "boxing match" to the toxic waste dip—they rank the unique death sequences.
🎭 Jason's Evolution: How the character changed by the end of the 80s and the performance behind the mask.
📉 The Franchise Fatigue: A look at the box office numbers and why this film put the series on hiatus.
🎬 Trivia & Plot Holes: The teleporting Jason, the inexplicable toxic waste in the sewers, and more behind-the-scenes facts.
Is this the film that jumped the shark, or is it a misunderstood campy classic? Grab your hockey mask and join the debate!
Here are some additional behind-the-scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode:
In the original script, when Jason arrives at the dock, a dog begins barking at him, prompting him to kick it. However, Kane Hodder, who portrayed Jason, felt that kicking the dog was excessive, leading to the scene being removed from the final cut.
In the rooftop scene where Julius punches Jason, Kane Hodder, a renowned stuntman, instructed actor V.C. Dupree to deliver a powerful blow. Hodder aimed to ensure the punches appeared authentic. By the time they reached the iconic “knockout” shot, Dupree was so exhausted that the expression of defeat on his face was entirely genuine.
In an interview with Fangoria Magazine (August 1989), Kane Hodder revealed that the vomiting scene in the final act was not a special effect. Instead, it was a real occurrence, as Hodder had consumed several pitchers of water beforehand.

00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:05,440
1989 Jason Voorhees decided it
was time to leave the woods
2
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,440
behind and head for the big
city.
3
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:11,720
After 7 films of terrorizing
camp counters at Crystal Lake,
4
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:15,960
the iconic slasher traded the
pine trees for a luxury liner
5
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:18,480
and the neon lights of the
concrete jungle.
6
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:22,400
It was a bold move that promised
a change of scenery, a high body
7
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:24,680
count, and the ultimate urban
showdown.
8
00:00:25,080 --> 00:00:27,680
Did it deliver?
Stay tuned to find out.
9
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:31,440
Pack your bags, board the
Lazarus, and when you get to New
10
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:34,600
York, be sure to avoid the
sewers filled with toxic waste
11
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,720
as Charlie Cotter, Nicholas
Pepin, Laramie Wells and I
12
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:42,560
discuss Friday the 13th Part 8.
Jason takes Manhattan on this
13
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,360
episode of the 80s Flick
Flashback Podcast.
14
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:31,240
Welcome to the show, everybody.
I am your host, Tim Williams.
15
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:35,360
To help me navigate these murky
waters, I brought in a crew of
16
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:38,720
true survivors.
First up, as a man who knows
17
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,400
that if you see a hockey mask in
the engine room, you should
18
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,160
probably just jump ship, It's
Charlie Cotter.
19
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:45,360
Welcome back to the show.
Charlie.
20
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,480
How you doing?
I'm good Tim, thanks for having
21
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,360
me.
I've I've seen my fair share of
22
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:53,400
hockey masks.
Yeah, next.
23
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,160
He's been here so many times,
he's practically teleporting
24
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,640
from scene to scene, just like
Jason in this movie.
25
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,120
It's Nicholas Pippen from Pop
Culture Roulette.
26
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,920
How you doing Nicholas?
This podcast is doomed.
27
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,560
And finally, he's the one who
survived more Friday the 13th
28
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,360
than a final girl.
It's Laramie Wells from Moving
29
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,480
Panels podcast.
Tim, the first thing you were
30
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:23,320
supposed to do was blow the horn
indicating the maritime.
31
00:02:24,920 --> 00:02:27,280
Whatever the crap, whatever the
yeah, yeah, yeah.
32
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,920
Laramie's our final girl, thank.
You.
33
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,240
Thank you.
I did just finish reading Final
34
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,920
Girl support group so.
Right, right in line.
35
00:02:39,920 --> 00:02:41,960
All right, yeah.
So I was telling the guys before
36
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,560
we started recording, is this a
bittersweet podcast?
37
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,880
Is this is the final entry of
Friday the 13th in the 80s?
38
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:54,960
Or is this a sweet sweet because
it is the final Friday the 13th
39
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,040
entry of the 80s.
But we've come a long way.
40
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,000
Yes, and it's it's the final
Friday.
41
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,840
That's because they're The other
two aren't even called Friday
42
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,680
the 13th.
Yeah, the next one was Freddy
43
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,280
versus Hell.
Oh, Jason goes to hell.
44
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:09,520
That's right.
Jason goes to hell.
45
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,880
Jason X Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So J Drop.
46
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,080
Well, there was the.

There was the.
Remake slash Yeah, yeah, reboot,

Well, we still have part 9,
49
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,400

And then you have, well that.
50
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,160
That's part 9 is Jason goes to
Hell.
51
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,040
Yeah, and then you have the.
That's when we get Freddie
52
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,040
involved.
Gotcha, Gotcha.
53
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,440
Yeah, yeah, I just love the
title.
54
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,560
Jason takes Manhattan like the
musical.
55
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,880
Virtually, Jason takes Manhattan
Avenger.
56
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,720
Yes, yes, let's, let's let's
jump right in.
57
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,360
Yeah, let's jump right in.
All right.
58
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:48,960
Well, you know how we play this
game.
59
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,080
Charlie, I'll start with you.
When did you see Jason Takes
60
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:53,640
Manhattan?
I'm just going to call that
61
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,920
instead of the Friday the 13th
Part 8, Jason Takes Manhattan.
62
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,800
First time was a couple years
ago when I watched that box set,
63
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:08,840
so probably 20, 16 or so and
didn't love it then, don't love
64
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:14,640
it now, but you know it when you
start with seven other ones
65
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,800
before it you got to finish the
series so.
66
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,959
Yeah, yeah.
And I will say, I'm, I'm glad
67
00:04:19,959 --> 00:04:24,680
that my podcast allows you to
get more uses out of that box
68
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,040
set than you ever thought you
would.
69
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,120
You're the reason I bought it.
All right, Nicholas, what about
70
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:37,240
you?
As I've talked about on previous
71
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,120
episodes, wasn't allowed to
watch horror movies when I was
72
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,920
growing up, right?
So this would have been the
73
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:47,880
2002, 2003 when they announced
Freddie versus Jason, I was
74
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,040
like, I'm going to see the
movie.
75
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,160
I have to see all of the
franchise before.
76
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:58,360
So like in a very short time
span, I just been wow, that's
77
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,280
just the way my brain works.
Yeah.
78
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,240
So I binged them all and I've
got my problems with this one,
79
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,520
but it it is it's fun.
I mean, it's not good, but it's
80
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,640
fun.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
81
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:12,640
All right, Laramie, what about
you?
82
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,080
But.
You know, I saw it on TV.
83
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,080
Hey, yeah, I'm not.
I'm surprised this one was even
84
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,120
aired on TV.
Was like does anybody care about
85
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,960
this one to watch on TV?
Yeah, no, I'm pretty sure it was
86
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,800
WATL 36 in Atlanta.
I'm pretty sure I watched it
87
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,520
just like in the middle of a
Saturday.
88
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:34,400
Yeah, when I was a kid, like,
yeah, no, I there for some
89
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,640
reason there are parts of this
movie that I remember more than
90
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,400
other Friday the 13th movie.
So I don't know if I just saw
91
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,400
this one more frequently growing
up.
92
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,120
Something about like especially
the ending with with him in the
93
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,440
sewer.
Yeah, there's I don't know if
94
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,640
that just stuck with me so much
longer, like I always remember
95
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,600
that.
I will say though, when I
96
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:06,160
rewatched it a couple years ago
I I totally forgot about the
97
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:11,280
cargo ship, I mean the cruise
ship that they are on at the
98
00:06:11,280 --> 00:06:13,600
beginning of the movie.
Like, totally forgot.
99
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,840
Yeah, in the intro when I say
luxury liner, I was very
100
00:06:17,280 --> 00:06:18,440
generous.
That's the word.
101
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,160
Yeah.
Very generous with luxury liner.
102
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,200
Yeah.
So believe it or not, and you'll
103
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,280
probably believe it, this was my
first time watch.
104
00:06:26,280 --> 00:06:30,960
I had never seen this one
before, and now I know why.
105
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,240
Because it's not.
It's definitely not in my top
106
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:37,680
seven.
I'll put it that way.
107
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,480
So how long has it been since
you rewatched it before
108
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:45,080
rewatching it for the podcast?
We'll go other way this time.
109
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,520
So, Laramie, I'll let you start.
I guess I, I just said, you
110
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,960
know, it's like a couple years
ago, yeah, a couple years ago.
111
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:57,040
It wasn't too, too long ago, but
because this usually is kind of
112
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:02,120
a these movies are kind of a go
to for me for like Halloween and
113
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:06,200
Friday the 13th.
You know all those classic
114
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,200
slashers like this and Nightmare
on Elm Street.
115
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,680
I don't get to watch them as
much as I probably would like to
116
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,120
because I like bad horror
movies.
117
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:20,440
So even when it's bad, I tend to
enjoy them so.
118
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,280
Yeah, yeah, I've come to
appreciate bad horror movies a
119
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,440
lot more, like, and the 80s is
full of them.
120
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,480
So it's kind of fun just to
throw in an obscure one that
121
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,000
I've never seen before.
It's fun.
122
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:36,520
Toby is full of them as well.
Yes, the streamers have been a
123
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:40,560
treasure trove of bad 80s
slashers.
124
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:42,400
So.
I just recently watched all
125
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,040
three of the horror movies they
made about Popeye the Sailor
126
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,200
Man.
Oh my gosh, yeah.
127
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:49,920
The Popeye the Slayer The Slayer
is a.
128
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,760
Yeah, there's Popeye the Slayer.
Man, I don't even remember all
129
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,840
of their names.
I was making something up.
130
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:57,000
I don't know if that was.
True or not?
131
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,120
That is, it is true.
Gotcha.
132
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:01,320
All right, Nicholas, how about
you?
133
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,640
How long has it been?
It's been a while.
134
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,320
This is not one of the ones I go
back and revisit.
135
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:10,480
It's, it's, I mean, I think I, I
mean, I'm going to put it higher
136
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,520
on the list than 8 if I had to
rank them, but not by much, like
137
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,600
maybe 6 or 7.
But you know, I, I would
138
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,160
actually have to sit down and
physically write you out that
139
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:24,400
list if, if I was, if you were
to push me on it, I had to pull
140
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:28,880
out my box set as well because
apparently we're not streaming
141
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,400
part 8 anywhere.
Jason took Manhattan, but he
142
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,799
didn't take Peacock.
Yeah, what about you, Charlie?
143
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:43,240
I actually watched it this
morning, so I am very familiar
144
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:47,120
with the movie now.
Very fresh on the mind.
145
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:52,400
Quite unfortunate that it's
fresh on the mind, but it is
146
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,680
what it is.
I actually wrote down all the
147
00:08:54,680 --> 00:08:57,720
things I like about it and the
things I don't like about it,
148
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,720
and I was surprised at how many
things I did like about it.
149
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,800
OK.
OK, so before this morning, how
150
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:06,240
long it have been since you
rewatched it?
151
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:12,640
2016.
Yeah, it's.
152
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,480
It's not high on the repeat
watch list, yeah.
153
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:18,560
Yeah, yeah, keep that in mind
That'll that'll be important
154
00:09:18,560 --> 00:09:21,200
later.
All right, well, we're going
155
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,800
into our new segment, which I
have now titled Risky quizness.
156
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,280
I'm trying, I'm working, it's
working and we'll see how how
157
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,840
were that trends here this week
or risky quizzes.
158
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,480
So we do our little trivia game.
I got five true or false
159
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,080
questions.
The guys get to work as a team
160
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,480
to answer whether they believe
it's true or false based on
161
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,480
information about the story,
origin and pre production.
162
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,680
So let's jump right in number
one, true or false.
163
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,600
The original script for Jason
Takes Manhattan featured Jason
164
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,640
climbing the Empire State
Building, jumping onto the
165
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,440
Brooklyn Bridge, but those were
cut due to a massive budget
166
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,160
required.
I believe it.
167
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,000
That's.
Yeah, I actually know that's
168
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,720
true, OK.
All right, then that's true it.
169
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:06,800
Is all right.
Yeah.
170
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,120
Yes, that is true.
Writer, director Rob Heddon's
171
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,280
initial draft was much more
ambitious.
172
00:10:12,680 --> 00:10:15,040
He had written scenes of the
Statue of Liberty, Madison
173
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,480
Square Garden in the Empire
State Building, Paramount
174
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:21,000
Pictures, Whoever slashed the
budget, pun intended, forcing
175
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,400
most of the Manhattan action to
be moved to a ship or back alley
176
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:28,600
streets in Vancouver, BC All
right, Number two, true or
177
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,160
false?
Despite the title, only about 5
178
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,440
to 10 minutes of the film were
actually shot in New York City.
179
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,160
I wouldn't.
I'd be surprised.
180
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,640
Yeah, it's under that would be,
I would think.
181
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,520
Yeah, that we are.
Are we?
182
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,920
Saying the part that was
actually filmed in New York
183
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,880
City, like the one scene or the
stuff that was supposedly
184
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,280
filmed, No.
Actually filmed.
185
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,760
Actually filmed in New York
City, Yeah.
186
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:53,880
All right.
Yeah, I'll go with that.
187
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,400
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, we kind of, yeah, we all
188
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,240
kind of true.
The vast majority of the movie
189
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,360
was filmed in Vancouver.
Only the iconic Times Square
190
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:05,200
sequence and a few transition
shots were filmed on location in
191
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,000
New York City to save on
production costs.
192
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,640
I'll be wrong, I assumed.
This transition shots were just
193
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,840
stock footage they stole from
some other movie.
194
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,840
Right, right, right.
Allah, Allah, Roger Corman.
195
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:23,240
Now, did you find out like did
they actually get like filming
196
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,760
permission or did they do that
kind of guerrilla style?
197
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,480
Because the fact that when they
come out of the subway, they
198
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,600
come out of the subway, there is
a dude that walks by them that
199
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,720
I'm pretty sure was nude
underneath his coat.
200
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,760
I don't know if either any of
y'all caught that guy.
201
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:40,920
I've.
Missed that one.
202
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,360
No, I saw him.
Yeah, he walks by and he's like
203
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:49,480
this and his coat stops like mid
thigh and it's just leg.
204
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,440
Yeah.
I mean, it's New York City.
205
00:11:52,680 --> 00:11:55,560
Very possible, yeah.
In 1988, yeah.
206
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,680
Yeah, I think I'm from what I
heard, they had two days to film
207
00:11:59,680 --> 00:12:02,960
in New York.
So and then there's the one shot
208
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,480
that we're going to get to
probably the best shot.
209
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:10,440
And you can see on the side
there's like fenced off people
210
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,840
and it's people who knew they
were filming and we're like
211
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,120
lined up.
And Kane Hotter said that he
212
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:19,160
would look over there and like
full makeup and freak them out.
213
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,360
So I think they had legitimate
rights.
214
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,800
I just think it was for very,
very limited time they.
215
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,600
Couldn't afford like, it was so
expensive to film in New York at
216
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,040
that time.
Yeah.
217
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:31,840
So.
So.
218
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:33,760
Yeah.
All right.
219
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:35,720
You're going Doing good.
Number three.
220
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,120
True or false?
Part 8 marked the first time in
221
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:42,200
the franchise that an actor
returned to play Jason Voorhees
222
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,960
for a second consecutive film.
True Kane.
223
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:46,640
Hotter.
Yep.
224
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,960
Second of four, everybody.
Agree, I see shaking heads but
225
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:51,280
they can't see your head on a
podcast.
226
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:54,560
I'm trying to think.
I'm trying to remember if
227
00:12:54,560 --> 00:12:58,160
anybody did it.
No, I'm going to have to to to
228
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,080
give this one to Laramie because
I I can't disagree with him.
229
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:02,400
Yeah, I think.
It's true, I was trying to
230
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,720
remember the names of them.
I can only remember 3 and 2.
231
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,720
Yeah, so it is true.
Kane Hotter played Jason in Part
232
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:12,880
7, The New Blood, in return for
Part 8.
233
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,000
He eventually became the only
actor to play the role four
234
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,120
times in a row, cementing his
status as the definitive Jason
235
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:21,920
for many fans.
So.
236
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,640
The only reason he didn't play
him and Freddy versus Jason was
237
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:30,400
he was too short because Robert
Anglin was much taller than him.
238
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,280
Which is crazy to think about
it.
239
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:38,200
Is yeah, which is also.
Crazy because I don't know if
240
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,760
we're going to get to this, but
the guy who replaces them is
241
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,600
also in this movie.
Yes, I don't.
242
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,440
I had I, I did read that, but I
didn't see it on my notes.
243
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,480
If you want to go ahead and talk
about it, you can put it in
244
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,400
right here, yeah.
So when they're in New York that
245
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:54,480
he, you know, the two main
characters, Sean and Rennie,
246
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:59,400
whatever name that is, they go
through this diner and then the
247
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:03,880
diner waitress tells them that,
you know, this is New York.
248
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,760
And then Jason bust through the
door, which is I love when Jason
249
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,520
just bust through doors like
that.
250
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:14,760
He doesn't in this movie.
But then the cook or the chef of
251
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:19,720
the diner, Ken Kerzinger, he is
his eventual replacement.
252
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:21,920
Yeah, you like, Laramie said.
He's like 66.
253
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,400
So yeah, he's a big, he's a big
boy.
254
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,560
Yeah.
He did some of the stunts, some
255
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,800
of Kane's hotter stunts in this
one only like 2 or 3 was.
256
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,280
I mean, Kane hotter did most of
his own stunts, but I think this
257
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,240
one, he did a few.
But yeah.
258
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,680
But when you're playing Jason,
you can't be injured.
259
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:41,240
So yeah, yeah, only do so many,
yeah, so many stunts, right.
260
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,640
All right, we're tracking on #4
true or false?
261
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,800
Director Rob Heaton originally
pitched the idea of the movie
262
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:50,760
taking place entirely on the
ship.
263
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,800
A Paramount executives were the
ones who forced him to move the
264
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:55,920
third act to the streets of New
York.
265
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,440
I could see.
That I mean.
266
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:01,320
Yeah, I could see it.
We pretty much did see it.
267
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:07,200
I feel like if I was reading
right, they wanted to do so much
268
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,800
more in New York that that
wasn't originally like they they
269
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,680
they were supposed to be on the
cruise ship for much shorter but
270
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:18,760
they had to expand it because of
of the budget.
271
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,520
That and they also didn't want
to film this one at all.
272
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,840
They had a whole another sequel
they had planned for it anyway,
273
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,760
so all right, so.
We got false, so Nicholas is
274
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:29,480
going false.
Anybody go with?
275
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,520
Nicholas he, he sounded
knowledgeable on that.
276
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:34,720
I don't know, Nicholas.
Nicholas is correct, it was
277
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,080
false.
It's actually the opposite.
278
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,400
Eden's original pitch was all
about the city, but Paramount
279
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:40,600
told him they couldn't afford
it.
280
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,440
Eden later joked the movie
should have been called Jason
281
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,880
Takes a Cruise because so much
of it takes place on the S S
282
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,600
Lazarus.
All right last one.
283
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,520
This will probably the the the
hardest one but or the one that
284
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,960
probably you don't know that
much about true or false.
285
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,960
The actor who played the boxer
Julius who famously gets his
286
00:15:59,960 --> 00:16:03,280
head knocked off actually broke
his hand during the filming of
287
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,920
the rooftop fight scene because
he hit Kane hotter's mask with a
288
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,080
real punch.
True or false?
289
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:10,040
That's.
True.
290
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,200
I know that was true too,
because he bloodied his knuckles
291
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,040
and he was actually hitting Kane
the whole time.
292
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,920
Yeah.
Charlie knows his stuff.
293
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,560
It's true.
Actor VC Dupree really did
294
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,640
injure his hand during the
filming of the rooftop scene.
295
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,240
He had to throw dozens of
punches at Kane Hotter.
296
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,400
Even though Hotter was wearing
padding, the repetitive impact
297
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,560
against the hard plastic of the
hockey mask caused Dupree's hand
298
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:35,920
to swell and eventually
fracture.
299
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,560
But yeah, I did read like Kane
Hotter told me was like, don't
300
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:40,160
pull any punches.
I'm a stuntman.
301
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,240
Just go ahead and and go for it.
So he he was actually like
302
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,560
throwing those hits.
I want to know how slippery that
303
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:47,920
roof was, though, because every
time he threw a punch, it was
304
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,480
like he was about he was always
slipping and sliding.
305
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,320
So I was like, it's got to be
bad.
306
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,400
But all right, good job.
That was I think that's the
307
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:59,800
first time we've had a full
sweep that all all were entered
308
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:03,040
correctly.
So the the first, the first
309
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,119
championship team.
Here we go so congratulations.
310
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,480
So let us know how you did
listeners in the in the quiz as
311
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:10,599
well.
Leave us a comment.
312
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,200
Send us a message so.
What's our prize Dem?
313
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,160
You get to come back for another
episode.
314
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,200
Unfortunately, it won't be
another Friday the 13th episode
315
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:21,960
because there are no more to
cover.
316
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,839
All right, so the abbreviated
version of the storage and their
317
00:17:25,839 --> 00:17:27,839
pre production.
After the underwhelming
318
00:17:27,839 --> 00:17:30,720
performance of The New Blood,
Paramount was flooded with wild
319
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:34,480
pitches for a sequel, including
a rematch with a telekinetic
320
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:38,280
Tina Shepherd and a bizarre
twist where Jason's rival Nick
321
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,000
was the real killer.
Ultimately, the studio handed
322
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,160
the keys to debut director Rob
Heedon, whose mission was
323
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,240
simple.
Get Jason out of that stupid
324
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,280
lake.
Eden's initial vision was a
325
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,240
sprawling, high octane urban
massacre featuring Jason
326
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,280
crashing Broadway plays,
brawling at Madison Square
327
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,400
Garden and diving off the Statue
of Liberty.
328
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,240
However, when faced with the
cold reality of a tight
329
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,680
Paramount budget, the grand
Manhattan epic was scaled back
330
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,720
to a hybrid voyage to keep the
project under wraps.
331
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,360
The film move forward under the
secret title Ashes to Ashes,
332
00:18:09,360 --> 00:18:12,440
Trading the bright lights of New
York City for the claustrophobic
333
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,840
quarters of a cruise ship, with
just enough Big Apple left in
334
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:17,840
the script to keep the title
alive.
335
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:19,720
Sure, anything to anything to
add?
336
00:18:22,120 --> 00:18:26,440
It's like waiting for Godot.
That's what it Yeah, kind.
337
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,440
Of like you said Tim, instead of
you know Jason takes a cruise.
338
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,160
I heard the Friday the 13th on a
boat on.
339
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:36,120
A boat on a boat.
And it's crazy because this was
340
00:18:36,120 --> 00:18:38,360
my first time watched.
Like I did not know that it was
341
00:18:38,360 --> 00:18:40,200
going to take place on a ship
until I started watching.
342
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,760
And I was like, OK, this isn't
what I expected.
343
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,000
What I'm sure is what every
person that went to see the
344
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,640
movie thought.
The same thing is like as Jason
345
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,400
takes Manhattan, why are we not
in the city?
346
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,480
And why 40 minutes into the
movie are we still on the boat?
347
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,600
So.
Why, an hour into the movie, are
348
00:18:54,600 --> 00:19:00,840
we still on the boat?
And and how does Crystal Lake
349
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:04,760
attach to the Atlantic Ocean?
That's what I want to know.
350
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:06,000
Don't.
Ask.
351
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:07,720
Questions, right?
Right.
352
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,520
How does?
A ship that big start in Crystal
353
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,160
Lake well.
See, I I don't think that no,
354
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,600
this one, it's the boat that
it's the boat that he attacks
355
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,640
the couple on is in Crystal.
Lake and.
356
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:26,120
Then it drifts to where the the
the other one is, even though
357
00:19:26,120 --> 00:19:31,000
these are the seniors of Crystal
Lake High School or whatever
358
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,240
who.
Knows like. 88 kids, nine kids.
359
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,800
Like, not very like for for that
big of a cruise ship with nobody
360
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:39,480
else on it, right?
Right.
361
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:43,960
I was like calling it a cruise
ship was really once again, very
362
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,440
generous because it was, you
know, I guess you'd be like
363
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,440
maybe like a dinner cruise ship,
but there really wasn't.
364
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:52,960
It didn't feel like a cruise
ship.
365
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:54,560
It felt like a, what'd you call
it?
366
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:55,800
What'd you call?
It a party.
367
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:57,960
Boat, No, but it was more like a
freight you.
368
00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,320
Called it a cargo ship.
Cargo.
369
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:00,400
Ship.
Yeah, that's what it really felt
370
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,000
like, a cargo ship, which
probably all looked like.
371
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,440
A cruise ship.
You had the sauna, you had the
372
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,400
dance floor, you had the
everything else.
373
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,360
Yeah, there was.
Some deck chairs?
374
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,400
Yeah, a few.
Yeah, I guess jump board.
375
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,640
Speaking of the how did it get
out of the the lake?
376
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,960
Many of the actors pointed out
to themselves a plot hole
377
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:24,200
earlier in the filming of the
movie.
378
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,080
They wondered how the ship got
out of Crystal Lake and into the
379
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,160
Atlantic Ocean.
Since most of them are just
380
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:30,880
happy to be in a film.
They didn't bring it up to the
381
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,800
producer or director during the
film.
382
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:35,840
Yeah, so.
But even they do like, how is
383
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:37,360
this even possible?
Shut up, man.
384
00:20:37,360 --> 00:20:38,720
You're in a movie.
So.
385
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:45,400
I also I also needed a shot
underwater because clearly while
386
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:50,520
they were in the raft, Jason is
walking underneath them.
387
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,840
Yeah, because he.
Arrives in Manhattan the exact
388
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:59,600
same time they do.
I as they were when, when they
389
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:01,320
were like, oh, it's the Statue
of Liberty.
390
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,560
We're we're in New York and I'm
thinking there's no other boats
391
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,120
around.
I was like, Jason, is he just
392
00:21:06,120 --> 00:21:10,040
like, sorry, is he like holding
on to like the, the underneath
393
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:11,520
the the raft waiting to get
there?
394
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:13,080
Like, well, why they're right
there.
395
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,040
He could just kill them all.
He could.
396
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,720
He could deflate the raft right
then and it'd be the movie's
397
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,400
over, so.
He is on the the ocean floor
398
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,080
just walking.
Just walking and watching,
399
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,280
Watching them as he walks, Yeah.
I mean, it's just like the end.
400
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:30,400
Of the movie, like you talked
about raising the body count,
401
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:36,600
the number of people Jason just
passes by chasing these two
402
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,360
people, right?
Makes.
403
00:21:38,360 --> 00:21:40,600
No sense.
Yeah.
404
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,800
Yeah, I mean, well, Jason's
transportation powers are in
405
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,840
full tilt.
I mean, it's always been crazy
406
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,880
in the in the franchise anyway.
Like, everybody's running at
407
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,720
full speed trying to get away
from him, and then they trip and
408
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,280
they turn around and he's right
there.
409
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:59,280
I mean, this one, the guy went
to climb a mast, look, looks
410
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:02,120
down, sees him, looks back up,
turns back around and Jason's
411
00:22:02,120 --> 00:22:03,440
ripping him off.
Yeah.
412
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:04,480
Yeah.
Like, so.
413
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:08,160
I mean, clearly at this point
we've gone full supernatural
414
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:13,280
Jason and he has some sort of
like transporter device like.
415
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,520
They also though, and I don't
know who was just Kane Hotter's
416
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:22,800
performance, but Jason goes a
little bit backwards a little
417
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:27,360
bit and almost turns back into
like the hunter Jason from like
418
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:31,000
going back to like Part 2.
Yeah, yeah, you know, where he's
419
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,520
actually like you can, he's
thinking about what he's doing
420
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:40,240
and which is it's weird after
seeing, you know, like 6 and
421
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:45,080
seven where he is just full on
monster at that point.
422
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,640
I mean the fact that he turns.
Around and takes his mask off
423
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,840
just to scare the four kids.
Yeah.
424
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:53,400
Yeah, choices.
Weird, I did.
425
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:56,520
Find it interesting that in in a
pure killing machine who just
426
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,000
kills everybody and everything
in every other movie.
427
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:03,880
Like like on the subway he just
walks by and doesn't just like
428
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:05,160
pushes that one.
Woman.
429
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,920
Yeah, like, doesn't Lop heads
off while he's walking by them?
430
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,760
You know, just like I want to
kill those two.
431
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:12,920
And that's it.
That's it.
432
00:23:13,120 --> 00:23:16,640
Yeah, yeah, same thing in the
diner when you throw after he
433
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,920
throws the cook.
Like he just stares down the
434
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:23,880
waitress as he walks by her.
Like, yeah, I mean, come on,
435
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,600
kill somebody.
Jason, They weren't.
436
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,120
There anymore?
I didn't.
437
00:23:30,120 --> 00:23:32,240
I didn't pay for you to look at
people I can't pay.
438
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,840
For you, I didn't pay for you to
take a tour of Manhattan.
439
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,080
Right.
I mean, to be fair, it was
440
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,000
probably the first time Jason
ever left Crystal Lake.
441
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:42,560
Yeah.
So except no, no, wait.
442
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,480
Was it Part 2?
When he go, when he somehow
443
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:49,160
finds his finds his way to the
the girl's house in the suburbs
444
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:50,840
and kills her in her kitchen,
right.
445
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:52,240
OK, that is true.
He did.
446
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,480
He did a couple times go to the
suburbs and then come right
447
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,640
back.
But it's the first time he's
448
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,360
ever been to the big city.
Yeah.
449
00:23:59,360 --> 00:24:00,400
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
450
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:04,200
And he, he had to take it all in
soon as he got up there.
451
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,760
Oh, pretty lights like.
Nicholas was saying the whole
452
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,040
teleportation.
It gets kind of frustrating
453
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,760
because it's just like selective
teleportation.
454
00:24:13,120 --> 00:24:16,480
You know when he throws the
uncle out of the window Like
455
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:20,360
that was super cool, but then
why doesn't he use it on the
456
00:24:20,360 --> 00:24:22,320
train?
Why doesn't he use it catching
457
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:28,200
back up to the final girl and
the the guy he just chooses when
458
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,960
the plot tells him to the
teleport, that's when he
459
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:33,040
teleports.
It's it's.
460
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,000
Almost like the Weeping Angels
from Doctor Who.
461
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:36,640
If you look at him, he can't do
it.
462
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,760
I'm a I'm probably about to go
off on a tangent.
463
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:42,440
I'm going to warn you to go
ahead.
464
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:47,840
The fact that he's underwater at
the beginning of the movie, he
465
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,320
comes out from under the water.
He comes, he's clearly walking
466
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:52,880
underwater when they're on the
raft.
467
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:59,760
He he has no problem with water
until the end of the movie when
468
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,680
he is all of a sudden terrified
of water.
469
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,360
I know it's it's toxic.
Waste.
470
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,240
Toxic waste.
Doesn't know that.
471
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:12,320
Yeah.
Plus he plus we get the the
472
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,160
really bad mask puppet doing
hit.
473
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,960
Don't let me drown, Mommy.
Yeah, don't let.
474
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,720
Me.
Which brings me to my tangent.
475
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,200
Oh, that wasn't the tangent.
OK, Part 2.
476
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,240
Go ahead.
They have established that Jason
477
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:30,080
in fact did not drown as a
child.
478
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:37,440
That was retcon in Part 2, right
after the first movie that he
479
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,440
survived and then lived in the
woods.
480
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:45,000
Yes, and he.
Doesn't die until part 4 comes
481
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:50,320
back in part 6 as a zombie.
He never drowned as a child.
482
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:55,120
So the whole thing that that
they wrap around this movie
483
00:25:55,120 --> 00:25:59,200
about him drowning as a child
and about him being a child and
484
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,400
her constantly seeing him as a
child and then him reverting
485
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,960
back to a child makes no sense.
Yeah.
486
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:08,600
What?
Follow your own cannon.
487
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:11,080
Pitch posh.
No.
488
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,280
Yeah, yeah, I was.
We'll never.
489
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,640
Get to the one that we were.
We're not going to talk about
490
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,720
Part 9, which really just throws
all cannon out the window
491
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,080
altogether.
He can.
492
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,160
Eat his heart and you'll become
Jason.
493
00:26:25,360 --> 00:26:29,240
Yeah.
Yeah, I I even like all the like
494
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:34,560
the the scenes of her seeing him
as a kid and like the visions,
495
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,640
like, OK, were they trying to
like somewhat connected to the
496
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,600
last movie with the telekinetic
power stuff?
497
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:45,160
Like it just, it was, yeah, it
was bad.
498
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:46,960
I think it.
Was just because the main girl
499
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,160
was scared of water and they
were trying to.
500
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,280
Oh, Jason's also afraid of water
for this thing that never
501
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:53,240
happened.
Yeah.
502
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:57,560
But he's not.
He clearly shows in every scene
503
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,680
but the.
She's clearly terrified of
504
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:05,160
water.
And then why did it take, you
505
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,040
know, the end of the movie for
her to have that one flashback
506
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:12,040
where she remembers that the guy
threw her in the water to try to
507
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:14,520
like, what a horrible thing to
do.
508
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:16,960
Worst uncle ever.
Yeah.
509
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,000
Not when not.
When she gets thrown in the
510
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,760
water, yeah, you would think
that might be a triggering event
511
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:24,880
of like, oh, wait, this happened
before, right?
512
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:26,280
Right.
Yeah, exactly.
513
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:32,360
OK, let's let's take a pause
from there and jump into the
514
00:27:32,360 --> 00:27:35,400
cast.
A lots of people that we only
515
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,040
see in this movie, so we'll go
to this pretty quick.
516
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,760
There's a few, but before we
jump into who's actually in the
517
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,720
movie, we'll mention that Laura
Park Lincoln originally wanted
518
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:48,560
to sign on to reprise her role
as Tina Shepherd in Part 8, but
519
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:52,760
she wanted a higher salary than
she was paid for the new blood.
520
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,240
Go figure that one.
Paramount told her that their
521
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,400
budget could not afford to pay
her any more than what she
522
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,280
bargained for and because of
this she turned down the part.
523
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,120
Thus Paramount decided to
rewrite the entire script for
524
00:28:03,120 --> 00:28:06,080
part 8 to take the movie in a
whole new direction, which later
525
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,400
completely excluded the
character of Tina all together
526
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,720
as they decided they didn't want
anyone from part 7 to return.
527
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:13,680
Like there was so many of them
to return from part 7.
528
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,280
So this.
Would have been Friday the 13th,
529
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,880
Part 7, the new blood Part 2.
Yeah, OK.
530
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:27,040
The new, new blood, Yeah.
Yeah, the new new blood.
531
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:31,040
All right, so cast Jensen
Daggett as Rennie Wickham.
532
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:35,880
She has appeared in this movie
as well as Major League Back to
533
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,520
the Minors, the one Major League
movie we don't talk about.
534
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,640
She had a recurring role as
Nancy Taylor on home
535
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:42,200
improvement.
Home.
536
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:43,720
Improvement.
That's what I knew her from.
537
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:48,720
And that's it.
That's where we know her from.
538
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:50,360
Nope, I.
Knew her from home improvement
539
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,640
that's.
And then we've got Scott Reeves
540
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:57,040
as Sean Robertson.
All of these character names are
541
00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,480
like the first time seeing them
because I didn't know anybody's
542
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,080
name in this movie.
He's known for playing the roles
543
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,880
of Ryan McNeil on the CBS
daytime soap opera The Young and
544
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,160
the Restless, Young and the
Restless from 91 to 2001.
545
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:12,080
He played Stephen Weber on the
ABC daytime soap opera General
546
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:17,240
Hospital from 2009 to 2013 and
then returned in 2024.
547
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,680
I won't go into the wood.
The plot twist was there, and he
548
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:24,960
was also Noel Loughlin on the
ABC series Nashville from 2014
549
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,880
to 2016.
OK, Nope.
550
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:30,880
I knew him from from Young and
the Restless.
551
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:34,200
That was my, you know, my mom
and grandmother and all that
552
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,040
soap opera from when I was a
kid.
553
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,400
So, you know, home from school
or being babysat.
554
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,160
That was it.
I can even remember he was
555
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,400
Victoria Newman's boyfriend on
that show.
556
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,520
OK, you remember more than I
did.
557
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:48,840
Yep.
I.
558
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:52,800
Only know him from this movie.
All right, then we've got
559
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:56,840
Barbara Bingham as Colleen Van
Dusen a her screen credit.
560
00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:02,920
Yeah, credit include this movie
Soldiers, Fortune Cop, Target,
561
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:07,280
Beyond Darkness, Dread House
Dark and Romance on the Menu
562
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:12,040
which is 123456 movies I've
never heard of.
563
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:20,040
Never heard of but I also love
that she gets a death that we
564
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:21,600
don't see.
Yes.
565
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,920
Yeah, like don't.
Even show her like fighting to
566
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:26,920
get out of the car or anything
and.
567
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:28,280
They never.
Mentioned it either.
568
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,840
Oh no.
Yeah, all right.
569
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,600
Then we got Peter Mark Richmond
as Charles McCullough.
570
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,840
His numerous roles included
appearances in The Twilight
571
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:44,720
Zone, 1959, The Fugitive 1963,
The Virginia 1962, An Impossible
572
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:50,280
1966.
He was also on Star Trek The
573
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,960
Next Generation.
He came across like as just a
574
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:55,800
very like 1 dimensional
character.
575
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:57,200
Like most of them are very
one-dimensional.
576
00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:01,880
But like his delivery was just
it, it was very much like ATV
577
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:06,800
actor of the 70s and 80s.
So which which, you know, shows
578
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:08,200
definitely.
He.
579
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:09,840
He was, wasn't he?
Yeah.
580
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:11,520
Exactly.
I was saying that's why I came
581
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:14,080
across that way.
And I will say, like, I don't
582
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:17,840
know if it was necessarily the
directing or the acting, but
583
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:19,840
it's pretty terrible, I mean,
overall.
584
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,640
It it's funny you say that
because as the comic book guy, I
585
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:26,800
can let you know that he was the
voice of the Phantom on the
586
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,040
animated series Defenders of the
Earth.
587
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,920
OK.
OK, he definitely had a
588
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,000
distinctive voice.
I just can't remember who he
589
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,040
reminded me of.
I should have wrote it down.
590
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:40,640
All right, moving right along,
we got Martin Cummins as Wayne
591
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,560
Weber.
His other appearances include
592
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:48,240
the TV series When Calls the
Heart, Andromeda, the 4400 Kyle
593
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:52,960
XY, lot of sci-fi shows there.
He was on Smallville, Stargate
594
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:57,320
SG-1, Life as we know it, and he
was also in The Omen for The
595
00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,360
Awakening.
So once again, I have no idea
596
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,440
who that was in the movie, but
that was what he was in.
597
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,320
That was the video camera guy
is.
598
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,840
It OK, that makes sense.
Then we got Gordon Curry as
599
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,200
Miles Wolff.
One of his breakthrough roles
600
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:16,200
was playing Officer Pallone on
21 Jump St. 1987.
601
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:19,080
In 1991.
After a couple of years working
602
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,680
in locally shot TV and film in
Vancouver, he moved to Los
603
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:27,120
Angeles to study acting.
His first roommate was Brad
604
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,960
Pitt, which is why he makes the
list.
605
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,200
And it's good that he's known
for something.
606
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:35,440
Yes.
Yeah, there.
607
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,160
This.
Movie and being roommates with
608
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,760
Brad Pitt there you.
Go Yeah, sure.
609
00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:44,280
He put that on his resume.
The one actress that I did
610
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:49,440
recognize, Kelly, who as Ego,
won A1, Atabi won a Watanabi.
611
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:51,640
Watanabi.
Yeah, yeah.
612
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,720
She starred as Doctor Ray Chang
on the American TV soap opera
613
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:58,360
Sunset Beach and as Michelle
Chan on the American television
614
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:00,200
police drama series Nash
Bridges.
615
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:06,240
And her her claim to fame is The
Scorpion King in 2002 as well as
616
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:10,880
X2 in 2003.
She also appeared as Chyna White
617
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:15,040
in The CW series Arrow Arrow.
And she also had her current
618
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,760
roles in The Vampire Diaries,
which was filmed where in
619
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:23,200
Laramie's hometown.
And she also has some animated
620
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,560
some voice work on Disney
Channel animated series Phineas
621
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,040
and Ferb Rapunzel's Tangled
Adventure.
622
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,920
And she was the voice of
Cheshire and Paula Crock, the
623
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:38,560
Huntress and Young Justice.
This was her film debut and she
624
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:42,000
was the first Asian character in
the series and.
625
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:45,440
Far and away the most famous
person in this movie other than
626
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:49,360
maybe Tain hotter than one of
the but more people could
627
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,000
recognize her because at least
you know what her face look.
628
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:55,200
Like, yeah, yeah.
And at least two of her three
629
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:55,920
movies are good.
Yeah.
630
00:33:58,720 --> 00:33:59,760
Which one are you talking about?
Two.
631
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:01,760
Among, I was about to say, is X2
among those.
632
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,200
Yeah, X2 is great.
Yeah, X. 2 is great.
633
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:10,120
Yeah, Lady Death Strike.
We won't talk about the Scorpion
634
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:11,480
King.
That's on your top ten list,
635
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,560
Charlie, but.
No, I love the Scorpion King.
636
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:18,800
I mean, this one's bad.
No, the Scorpion King.
637
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,719
I love him.
Oh yeah, yeah, The Rock.
638
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:26,000
All right, so last few here we
got Saffron Henderson as JJ
639
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:27,760
Jarrett.
Henderson appeared in the live
640
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:34,880
action movie The Fly 2 and the
romantic comedy Cousins, and
641
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:38,440
that's it.
She's the rocker that she gets
642
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:40,480
killed by Jason Voorhees with
her own guitar so.
643
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:43,440
Yeah, she's a voice actor
though, isn't she?
644
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:45,320
Yeah.
Yeah, she's, and she wasn't.
645
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,480
She was actually, she was a
singer as well.
646
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:51,320
So she was part of like, some
band at the time and then who
647
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,400
have been waiting to talk about
all the whole time.
648
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,000
Kane Hotter as Jason Voorhees,
of course, we've mentioned
649
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,320
talked about him in last
episode.
650
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:02,000
But he did say that one of the
most fun parts of his tenure as
651
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:03,800
Jason were the scenes in Times
Square.
652
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,760
He says that spectators were
lined up and down the block
653
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,200
watching the filming, and he
didn't want to take his mask off
654
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,160
to destroy their illusion of
Jason.
655
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:13,760
He said that every once in
awhile, he'd turn his head and
656
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:15,640
look at them and watch them all
go crazy.
657
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,840
And most of the cast had a
Friday the 13th marathon and
658
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,880
watch parts of one through 7 the
day prior to shooting.
659
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:25,880
They were intent on making part
8 quote UN quote the best one.
660
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:31,480
Failed at that mission not
accomplished, right?
661
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:34,120
Right.
Watching one through 7 was
662
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:39,880
probably not the best All right
well let's talk about iconic
663
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,280
favorite scenes.
So if somebody says to you,
664
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,480
Jason takes Manhattan, what's
the first thing that pops in
665
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,120
your head The.
Billboard.
666
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,160
Oh, the Billboard scene.
Yeah, that's a.
667
00:35:50,240 --> 00:35:52,280
Good one.
The.
668
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:59,760
Scene the three seconds of Jason
realizing where he is looking up
669
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:03,760
and just the the panoramic of
Manhattan.
670
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:09,640
That was obviously the best.
Scene the The rooftop boxing
671
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:11,880
scene where.
The.
672
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,640
Obvious mannequin head gets
knocked off.
673
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,000
That's that's I mean, if if the
first one I think of is
674
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,200
obviously Times Square, then the
rooftop box and then for the
675
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:29,800
wrong reasons the the the last
unmasking when he he takes his
676
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:34,480
mask off and you're supposed to
be like frightened by this.
677
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,240
I don't know what it's supposed
to be.
678
00:36:37,240 --> 00:36:41,800
Yeah, like it just, but it like
because I mean like earlier he
679
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:45,600
takes his mask off and you don't
see it and all the punks run
680
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:47,600
away.
Like it's supposed to be so, so
681
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,040
like when he goes to take his
mask off and you actually get to
682
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:54,240
see it, like I'm expecting to
see some frightening like, you
683
00:36:54,240 --> 00:36:57,320
know, just ripped up face or
just something like, you know,
684
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,360
it's it's a.
Spirit Halloween mask.
685
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:06,800
That's generous.
Yeah, I I was just like, oh,
686
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:08,880
that's.
Party City mask.
687
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:10,200
OK.
Yeah.
688
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:15,720
All right, the the Party City
after the Halloween is over,
689
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,840
everything is 75% off.
Yeah.
690
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,720
The.
Leftovers compared to the rest
691
00:37:23,720 --> 00:37:27,320
of the movie, that was one of
the bigger let downs.
692
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:33,280
Like it was just like.
I do like Charles's death and
693
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:37,600
chase.
Jason is particularly menacing
694
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:40,960
when he kills the uncle and then
the whole teleportation and
695
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,360
throwing him out the window.
That and then and then the
696
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:47,840
actual drowning with the dead
rat floating on top of the
697
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,040
barrel.
Just that was perfect.
698
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:52,440
Jason kill.
Yeah, yeah.
699
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:55,440
Iconic scenes for me is probably
like the scene of him walking
700
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,680
through and with the with the
the gang when he turns around.
701
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:01,560
You know, once again, this is my
first time watching the movie,
702
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:03,880
but I know Charlie, you had
showed me that scene like a
703
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:07,840
couple of years ago.
And but you were, I think you
704
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:11,040
were talking like it was the
most expensive scene or what was
705
00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:13,280
what was the trivia about that?
Because I couldn't find anything
706
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,760
about it I think.
It, it was something like that.
707
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:19,720
It was a, you know, something
along the lines of they spent,
708
00:38:19,720 --> 00:38:26,920
you know, two days in New York.
It's 90% of their budget and
709
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:31,800
it's on screen for a total of
like 38 seconds or something.
710
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,800
It was, it was something I put
all this something about there
711
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,400
and and that's what you got of
it.
712
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:40,480
Him just taking his mask off.
It's like, wow, that was
713
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,600
wonderful money.
Well spent.
714
00:38:42,720 --> 00:38:47,080
Yeah, him though, of him turning
away from the camera, showing
715
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:50,560
his face that we can't see, and
then turning back around and
716
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:53,160
letting them, you know, run off
and not kill them.
717
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:56,880
So yeah, well done.
Well done.
718
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,360
I don't know if this was
something that was happening
719
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:05,400
around this time with the with
horror movies, but compared to
720
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:11,000
some of the other Friday the
13th movies, the death scenes in
721
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:15,120
this one are kind of tame, yes.
Like, yeah, yeah, like.
722
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,000
There, there's not.
I mean, there's the I love at
723
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:22,320
the beginning when he goes after
the couple in the the boat, He
724
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:26,440
tries to kill the girl with the
harpoon, misses.
725
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:28,920
Yeah.
Then he just kills the dude with
726
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:31,760
the harpoon gun.
Yeah, he just drives it.
727
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:36,760
But that's probably one of the
more graphic scenes because you
728
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:38,800
do see it punch into his
stomach.
729
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,320
Oh, that in the the sauna.
Yeah.
730
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:41,840
Yeah.
The.
731
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:43,240
Sauna.
Yeah, yeah, the sauna I.
732
00:39:43,240 --> 00:39:46,400
Mean there were there were some
unique kills for Jason.
733
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:52,520
Like I don't think I've ever
seen him use a guitar, an artist
734
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:54,440
on a rock.
Like he used the guitar.
735
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:58,760
So like, I mean, he used an axe.
Yeah, yeah.
736
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,640
Yeah.
But but yeah, the Sonoroc one,
737
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:06,360
yeah, that was, I mean, there
was some unique, unique kills in
738
00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:07,720
this one.
I mean, there was.
739
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,000
It's not the worst Jason movie.
That one's the next one.
740
00:40:11,240 --> 00:40:14,920
I was going to bring up the
alley scene where the junkies
741
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:18,680
are about to, you know, rape the
the main, the final girl.
742
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:25,080
One problem is they inject her
with the drugs, which obviously
743
00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:28,120
does not affect her at all.
She gets up, she runs.
744
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:30,280
Nothing effects her in any way.
Like she doesn't have any kind
745
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:33,560
of like adrenaline solution.
OK, sure.
746
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:38,480
But Jason comes up once again.
Jason comes up and, and, and in
747
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:43,520
this, in essence, it saves her
because he kills the junkie by
748
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:47,560
jamming the hypodermic needle
through his entire chest where
749
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:50,520
just the needle sticks out of
the front of his shirt, which I
750
00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:54,000
think is probably the the
weakest practical effect of the
751
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,600
of the series.
Like the needle doesn't even
752
00:40:56,600 --> 00:41:00,560
Pierce through the the T-shirt
like them with the cloth
753
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:03,040
material.
But it was just like I was like,
754
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,800
OK, this is this is where we've
this is where I've ended up on
755
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:10,120
on kills in this, in this.
And I love that he picked up the
756
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:13,400
needle.
He's thinking about this is how
757
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:14,960
I'm going to kill this guy,
right?
758
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:18,160
He didn't need the needle.
Like he punches through the
759
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:19,200
guys.
Exactly.
760
00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:20,560
Exactly.
Yeah.
761
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:22,440
And then, of course, when his
buddy shows up and he starts
762
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:24,760
shooting him, like, OK, we've
seen this so many times.
763
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:26,880
Somebody tries to shoot him and
nothing happens.
764
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,720
Shoots.
Him 12 times from his six bullet
765
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:32,760
revolver, yeah.
Yeah, Another thing I like is
766
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:38,080
just I like the Hunter killer
Jason where it's silent and he's
767
00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:40,320
just looking around trying to
find.
768
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:42,840
So when they're on the houseboat
at the very beginning and he's
769
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,720
looking for the girl who's
hidden that even though it's
770
00:41:45,720 --> 00:41:51,480
only 12 seconds, 10 seconds,
that's that's a good like that's
771
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:53,720
the Jason I like.
That's what if they were to
772
00:41:53,720 --> 00:41:56,560
remake a movie, which I think
they're talking about it, but
773
00:41:56,560 --> 00:42:02,760
like that's the Jason I want to
see the hunter stalker searching
774
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:06,480
for your victim.
So I like that scene a lot.
775
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:11,800
Yeah, I will say the opening
scene with the boat is probably
776
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:15,400
one of the better openings of a
Friday the 13th move where it
777
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,120
went right into like a A.
It's the most scenario.
778
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,280
Friday the 13th.
Exactly.
779
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:22,640
And so it just it just
completely falls apart after
780
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:24,640
that for me.
Well.
781
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,480
And and you know, it has to
start with the random Deus Ex
782
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:31,640
machina of just like because he
threw the anchor down.
783
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:33,040
Yeah.
The.
784
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:36,440
Cable over.
It just randomly happened to
785
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:40,520
reawaken Jason, who immediately
was like hey thank you for
786
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:42,440
waking me up.
Stab, stab, stab, stab.
787
00:42:44,720 --> 00:42:47,480
Yeah.
And then I love how the there's
788
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:52,720
this huge electrical, you know,
explosion, for lack of a better
789
00:42:52,720 --> 00:42:55,400
term, but everybody on the boat
is fine.
790
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,120
And they were obviously still
asleep.
791
00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:59,040
Like did you hear that like
that?
792
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:03,960
There's all this like super
explosion and they they barely
793
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:07,280
even flinch and they and it
doesn't affect them on the boat,
794
00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,120
like the boat doesn't get
electrocuted at all.
795
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,960
Well, and the guy and the guy on
the boat just happened to have
796
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,160
the hockey mask, yes.
Yes, yes.
797
00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:18,120
So that Jason could immediately,
yeah, put it.
798
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:20,280
Back up well, he needed he
needed a new clean one.
799
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,240
We didn't want the one that's
been sitting underwater for all
800
00:43:22,240 --> 00:43:24,040
those years, all that, you know,
SharePoint.
801
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,040
SharePoint but it.
Needed to be replicated because
802
00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:30,000
it had the axe mark from three
and and then.
803
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,040
And then she cracked it open in
seven.
804
00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:36,920
Yeah, you know.
Timu Carey, she she cracked it,
805
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:40,480
so it was broken.
So he had to get a new one he
806
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:41,480
had.
Needed a new.
807
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:44,000
One, yeah, and there.
Was a big chunk out of his like
808
00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:46,800
left or right cheek that was
missing from 7.
809
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,040
That mask had a big chunk out of
it, yeah.
810
00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:54,000
All right, all right, well,
let's jump into some trivia If
811
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,360
you think about some other
scenes, the original posters for
812
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,200
the film featured Jason ripping
through an I Love New York
813
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:01,520
poster.
In the first poster, Jason is
814
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:04,640
holding a bloody knife, which
was cleaned in a second poster
815
00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:06,360
for fear the blood was too
graphic.
816
00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:09,320
But both posters were dropped
eventually following a complaint
817
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:11,280
from the New York Tourism
Committee.
818
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,160
Go figure.
You.
819
00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:14,520
Didn't film the whole movie in
our city.
820
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:16,240
You're not going to show our
city on your poster.
821
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:21,960
How dare you make people believe
that it's there's violence in
822
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,960
New York, right?
Right, which wasn't the tagline
823
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:28,000
for the movie, like New York
just got worse or something that
824
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:31,200
like I.
Don't know how realistic it is
825
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,840
because I've spent little to no
time in New York.
826
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:38,080
But like when he's on the
subway, like stalking these
827
00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:42,240
people, like nobody is like
freaked out about this gigantic
828
00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:45,200
like behemoth of a guy who has
to smell.
829
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:48,080
Yeah, like, yeah.
Yeah.
830
00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:51,800
With a, with a hockey mask and
weaponry and, and like
831
00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:55,400
everybody, everybody on the on
the subway is like, I cannot be
832
00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,720
bothered by whatever this is.
I'm just going to stay full.
833
00:44:58,720 --> 00:45:02,080
Like you're walking through
Times Square and other than the
834
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:06,800
punk kids, nobody, nobody cares.
Everybody flinches.
835
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:11,520
We've seen it with whatever.
Let's let's don't focus on it.
836
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:14,360
We might have to get involved.
Just let it happen.
837
00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:20,000
Yeah, the poster tagline was New
York has a new problem, which
838
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,560
I'm sure the tourism could.
You love that tagline too.
839
00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:27,600
But, you know, can we just say
that the opening credits did not
840
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:29,560
paint New York in the greatest
of lights?
841
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:32,840
No.
But the prologue of the film
842
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:36,120
foreshadows all the places that
Jason will chase the teenagers,
843
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:40,040
first downtown with the gang
members, then the diner, the
844
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:42,040
alley with the drug addicts and
the subway.
845
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:45,200
So OK.
I was about to go with like
846
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:51,840
alley number one.
Alley #2 alley #3 These are come
847
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:53,680
visit New York.
Yeah.
848
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,120
Look at our showers with toxic
waste, yeah?
849
00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:01,920
It takes you back to those late
80s where toxic waste was like
850
00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:07,120
the central plot of a lot of
movies of like, you know, you're
851
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:09,440
destroying the earth with your
toxic waste.
852
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:12,880
There's always some secret toxic
waste dump that the city is
853
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:15,760
hiding from the public.
So it was always something.
854
00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:17,960
Avenger, yeah.
Oh yeah, teenage mutant.
855
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:21,720
Ninja Turtles, Yeah.
They must have fixed it because
856
00:46:21,720 --> 00:46:24,840
nobody talks about toxic waste
anymore, so it must have it must
857
00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:27,480
have took care of.
The Three eyed fish on The
858
00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:28,800
Simpsons.
Yeah, yeah.
859
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:31,160
Yeah.
All right, so Jeremy mentioned
860
00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:33,440
this already.
The Jason face under the mask in
861
00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:35,760
this film was designed to be
much more streamlined than
862
00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:38,600
previous versions.
Fans often mock the look of
863
00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:41,880
Jason when he finally loses the
mask in the sewer, jokingly
864
00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:45,440
calling it the Muppet Jason
because of its pale, rounded,
865
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:48,960
and somewhat goofy appearance
compared to the rotted corpse in
866
00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:50,920
Part Seven.
Yeah, I didn't.
867
00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:52,920
Even know that?
Nope, I immediately thought
868
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:54,200
Muppet.
Muppet.
869
00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:59,440
Jason yeah, I love it.
That whole ending is just so
870
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,480
ridiculous.
We talked about it already on
871
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:03,800
the DVD commentary.
The director said the original
872
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:07,160
version was over 2 hours long,
and he cut the following scenes
873
00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:09,840
for time.
Several scenes with Miles, who
874
00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:11,760
was shown to have been an
Olympic diver.
875
00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:14,960
A scene at the beginning where
Sean hears that Rennie will not
876
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:18,360
be on board and is disappointed.
Several additional scenes with
877
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:21,920
Tamara and Eva.
Before Rennie gets pushed to the
878
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:24,240
water, there's a longer
conversation between her and
879
00:47:24,240 --> 00:47:27,960
Colleen, a scene of Eva meeting
with their group on the bridge
880
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:29,560
and then leaving to find
tomorrow.
881
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:33,320
A shot of Rennie touching Jason
after he's electrocuted on the
882
00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:35,360
railroad tracks.
The original script.
883
00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:36,160
Sorry.
Go ahead.
884
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,720
Yeah.
Like, touching him.
885
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:44,400
He's got the touch.
Yeah.
886
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:50,120
So the original scripted ending
featured Jason being completely
887
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:53,600
melted by the toxic waste and
his soul finally being released.
888
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:57,600
The studio heard it, yet the
studio changed it to him turning
889
00:47:57,600 --> 00:47:59,880
back into a child.
So if there was a chance of a
890
00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:02,800
sequel, they didn't write
themselves into a corner like
891
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:06,160
that's ever stopped them before.
In the end, this hardly mattered
892
00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:08,840
since Paramount decided not to
produce any more sequels after
893
00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:11,880
Jason Takes Manhattan because it
didn't do well financially.
894
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:14,320
They sold the sequel rights to
New Line Cinema.
895
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:18,880
Who's Jason Goes to Hell?
The Final Friday in 1993 chose
896
00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:21,720
to ignore most of the prior
sequels, and Jason Takes
897
00:48:21,720 --> 00:48:25,920
Manhattan in particular.
And they also chose to just, you
898
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:27,320
know what?
We don't even need to explain
899
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:28,520
how he came back.
He's back.
900
00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:31,400
Yeah.
Yeah, we can blow.
901
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:33,280
Him up at the beginning of the
movie, that's who we're.
902
00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:36,000
We can only Frankenstein him so
many times.
903
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:38,080
I mean, no, that's.
Why New Line turned him in like
904
00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:39,920
a werewolf?
Because I don't know if you
905
00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:42,280
remember what he looks like at
the beginning of that movie.
906
00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:44,120
He.
Looks really cool now.
907
00:48:46,720 --> 00:48:49,320
That whole opening scene is
crazy, yeah.
908
00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:50,560
It is next.
On my list.
909
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:54,920
You can skip it too.
I could I could have skipped a
910
00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:57,800
lot of them, but I'm a gluten
for punishment at this point.
911
00:48:57,800 --> 00:48:59,920
Why not now as they?
Finish them up, Yeah.
912
00:48:59,920 --> 00:49:03,040
I mean, yeah, it's like
Nicholas, like if I'm going to
913
00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:05,120
watch them, I'm going to watch
them all in.
914
00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:07,080
For a penny in for a pound
there.
915
00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:09,320
You go, there you go, talking
about box office.
916
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:11,880
Friday the 13th Part 8.
Jason Takes Manhattan was
917
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:15,400
released on July 28th, 1989 in
the United States.
918
00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:19,000
The film entered the box office
at #5 for the weekend with
919
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:22,880
earnings of $6.2 million.
But the film faced strong
920
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:25,920
competition at the time, which
released with high profile genre
921
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:29,680
fares such as A Nightmare on Elm
Street 5, The Dream Child,
922
00:49:29,720 --> 00:49:33,200
Halloween 5, The Revenge of
Michael Myers and Fright Night
923
00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:36,920
Part 2.
All masterpieces in their
924
00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:40,720
franchises.
Yes, ultimately we're going to
925
00:49:40,720 --> 00:49:44,840
gross $14.3 million of U.S. box
office, making it the poorest
926
00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:49,280
performing film in the franchise
and ranking at #70 on the list
927
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:52,520
of the year's top 100 earners.
So.
928
00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:55,440
Wait, is Halloween 5 the one
with Paul Rudd?
929
00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:58,920
Is that the Paul Rudd Halloween?
Yes.
930
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:00,760
No, I think.
No, no, I don't think.
931
00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:04,440
Paul Rudd shows up until after
age 2O but I could be no no.
932
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:06,520
No, no, no, he's, yeah.
No, no, he's, he was in.
933
00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:09,520
One that we did, I think, yeah,
I think it was that one cuz it
934
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:10,880
was the last year.
Five.
935
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:14,080
Yeah, yeah, cuz. 4 is the IT
starts with Jamie's little girl
936
00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:16,000
and then he's in the second one
of that.
937
00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:18,600
So that was so that.
Should be it, yeah, Yeah.
938
00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:22,320
Very young Paul Rudd, Yeah.
So he looks the same.
939
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:26,320
Yeah, Yes, exactly.
Yes, exactly his.
940
00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:30,960
Benjamin Button disease, Yeah.
All right, it's time to take a
941
00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:33,240
look at how well this 80s flick
holds up today.
942
00:50:33,240 --> 00:50:34,600
Oh boy, it's going to be a fun
one.
943
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:36,880
It's the rewatch ability
nostalgia meter.
944
00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:39,600
It's our way of measuring how
enjoyable movie is for repeat
945
00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:42,000
viewings along with the waves
and nostalgia brings.
946
00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:44,480
Here's how it works.
It's a one to 10 scale.
947
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:46,200
Any number between 1:00 and
10:00 will do.
948
00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:48,480
Here a few parameters to help
you decide.
949
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:50,640
At the bottom of the meters and
number one.
950
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:52,280
I saw it once and that was
enough.
951
00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:55,360
At the five in the middle is a
good rewatch every couple of
952
00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:57,240
years.
And at the top of the meter,
953
00:50:57,240 --> 00:51:01,000
highly coveted #10 means it's
highly rewatchable and full of
954
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:04,400
nostalgia.
So we'll start with Charlie.
955
00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:08,680
Where does Jason takes Manhattan
rank for you on the rewatch
956
00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:14,160
ability and nostalgia meter?
If you skip all the slow and
957
00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:17,920
boring scenes, we're still
talking like a 2.
958
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:25,080
I mean, you combine all the
like, quality, oh that was cool
959
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:28,160
scenes in this movie and we're
talking like 5 minutes.
960
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:31,160
We're talking.
The Vine video is what we're
961
00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:34,720
talking.
So it is, it is quite low, all
962
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,000
right.
Put this movie on TikTok if you
963
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:37,960
cut out.
Yeah.
964
00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:41,200
All right, Laramie, I'll let you
go next.
965
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:44,240
Yeah, it's probably I was
thinking 3.
966
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,600
That was my initial, my initial
gut.
967
00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:51,480
Yeah, I I really wanted to, I
really want to ask like of
968
00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:53,000
those.
Three that we just talked about
969
00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:56,280
that all came out the same time.
Which one is the better one like
970
00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:57,760
that?
Yeah, I haven't.
971
00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:01,680
I haven't rewatched The Dream
Child lately, so that that
972
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:08,600
doesn't rank high for me.
Halloween 5 was just I I can
973
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:11,120
actually, I think Halloween 5
was better than this one.
974
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:14,800
Yeah, I would say.
I don't know if I've ever seen
975
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:16,440
Halloween 5.
Yeah.
976
00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:18,960
And it's been even longer since
I've seen Dream Child.
977
00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:22,160
So yeah, I guess Friday night.
Yeah, Friday night 2 is pretty
978
00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:23,320
terrible though.
I never.
979
00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:26,120
Saw that either so.
That's actually the one, the
980
00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:28,200
only one I haven't seen.
I haven't seen Friday night 2,
981
00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:33,280
but yeah, no, this is yeah, all
of those are in the low.
982
00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:35,840
But yeah, again, 3 was my
initial.
983
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:37,920
I wouldn't.
I wouldn't be upset with the two
984
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:41,920
like Charlie gave it.
What about you, Nicholas?
985
00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:44,000
I mean.
I'm, I'm going to go a little
986
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:46,760
higher because I just I love
this year.
987
00:52:47,240 --> 00:52:49,920
I love this year.
Like if you listen to pop
988
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:53,240
culture roulette, you know that
me and and my Co host Jeremy
989
00:52:53,240 --> 00:52:57,400
have affinity for the Friday the
13th series.
990
00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:03,360
We routinely vote Jason as as
our as our icon of the horror
991
00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:06,560
genre.
So there's there's a little bit
992
00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:09,360
of AI didn't watch them growing
up.
993
00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:12,240
I watched them later on.
So I already had the
994
00:53:12,240 --> 00:53:16,640
appreciation of bad movies.
Like I love Troma, like I love
995
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:20,640
Troma movies.
Like I Lloyd Kaufman is a
996
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:22,480
genius.
He he's not a good filmmaker,
997
00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:27,720
but he's a genius.
So like I'm going to give it a 5
998
00:53:27,720 --> 00:53:31,720
just because like I can watch
this one every coach so often.
999
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:34,160
I don't watch it.
I don't watch it very often.
1000
00:53:35,240 --> 00:53:38,880
I do like it better than a
couple of other ones in this
1001
00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:42,800
franchise, but not by much.
Like I'm it's not going to be my
1002
00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:47,160
go to, but like if I'm like I'm
going to binge out on the on the
1003
00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:49,800
Friday the 13th series.
Like, I'm not like, Oh no, not
1004
00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:54,040
this one.
I will say backup back you up
1005
00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:59,360
when what you said, Nicholas, I
do think Jason looks probably
1006
00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:02,920
this is probably his second or
third best look in the entire
1007
00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:07,080
series.
I love the he's soaking wet.
1008
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:10,760
So that just obviously, I mean
he's obviously constantly in wet
1009
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:15,160
environments.
Hockey mask looks cool when he
1010
00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:18,240
we haven't seen his face yet,
but like the side of his head
1011
00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:20,360
and you can tell it's like this
colored and stuff.
1012
00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:24,560
It just his look in this movie
is very cool.
1013
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:29,560
I do like this look a lot.
And I'm just, I'm willing to
1014
00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:35,560
forgive a lot of just inanity
that this movie has for just
1015
00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:39,840
nostalgia.
So I mean, I understand why
1016
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:41,760
you'd want to give it a 2 or a
three.
1017
00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:43,960
Like, I get it.
I mean, I'm totally on board.
1018
00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:46,680
But like my own personal
ranking, I'm going to give it a
1019
00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:50,080
5.
Not a strong five like a 4.9,
1020
00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:54,720
but like, you know, basically.
No, if I was if I was giving it
1021
00:54:54,720 --> 00:54:57,440
a personal ring, I'd probably be
up there with you because I
1022
00:54:57,440 --> 00:55:00,040
mean, I said earlier, you know,
I love watching these movies
1023
00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:04,200
just for fun.
And and I agree with you about
1024
00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:06,880
Jason.
I mean, I've Jason was always a
1025
00:55:06,880 --> 00:55:14,400
go to Halloween costume for me.
So, and, and as Charlie saying,
1026
00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:19,320
like I love the Kane hotter
look, Kane hotter the way he
1027
00:55:19,320 --> 00:55:23,120
portrayed the character, you
know, the way he moved, like I
1028
00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:27,320
always like the, you know, he he
walks with, with the his arms
1029
00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:32,360
bowed out, which I, I think of a
lot of people when they think
1030
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:36,120
Jason, they are picturing Kane
hotters Jason.
1031
00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:38,560
I believe so, yes.
Yeah, yeah.
1032
00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:41,000
Yeah, I'm, I'm right there with
Charlie and Laramie.
1033
00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:44,400
I think I had to was my initial
miners.
1034
00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:46,680
But once again, I have no
nostalgia for this because I
1035
00:55:46,680 --> 00:55:51,480
didn't watch it as a kid and
it's not after watching it like
1036
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:54,120
I I struggled to get through it
the first time.
1037
00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:57,920
So probably hard to watch again.
But I'm but also like Nicholas,
1038
00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:00,320
if I'm going to watch, start
watching, if I want to watch
1039
00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:03,560
them all again, I will watch it
because I'm I'm I'm a
1040
00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:05,440
completist.
I have to watch all the entries.
1041
00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:07,880
So, so definitely be re watched
again.
1042
00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:11,880
So maybe 2.5 closer to a three
just because I'll probably watch
1043
00:56:11,880 --> 00:56:13,160
it.
I will watch it again.
1044
00:56:13,160 --> 00:56:18,120
But yeah, but so Britt, So now
that we've completed all of the
1045
00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:23,000
ones from the 80s, so one
through 8, which one would you
1046
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:26,240
say is your favorite of the
franchise?
1047
00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:28,400
I.
I've said it on this podcast,
1048
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,800
it's it's Jason Lives.
It's part 6 for me.
1049
00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:37,200
I, I just, I love that movie.
I know it may not be the best
1050
00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:39,600
story wise but it is my
favorite.
1051
00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:44,680
Yeah, that's the one that leaned
into the the comedy of it.
1052
00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:47,360
All right, Yes.
Yes, and the one filmed in my
1053
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:48,360
hometown.
So there you.
1054
00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:50,960
Go yeah, yeah, always helps two
or three.
1055
00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:53,240
I mean just because that's where
3.
1056
00:56:53,240 --> 00:56:55,960
D.
You know, there's there's I
1057
00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:59,560
mean, it's it's really hard to
say any of the other after I
1058
00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:02,880
mean the first one because it's
not really Jason.
1059
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:06,640
I mean, yeah, is it's hard to
kind of put that in there just
1060
00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:09,440
because it it's not I mean, it
is part of the franchise.
1061
00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:14,600
It's kicks the whole thing off.
But I mean, 2-3 is where things
1062
00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:17,520
get really rolling.
And then like you said, 6 I
1063
00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:22,760
think is where they they really
lean into the, the, you know,
1064
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:25,120
where absurdity, the absurdity
of it.
1065
00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:27,480
But yeah, so I mean, it would be
3 or 6 for me.
1066
00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:30,640
Oh boy.
I would say I wasn't.
1067
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:32,120
Ready for this question,
Charlie?
1068
00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:35,760
Likes 5.
Well.
1069
00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:39,160
I think there was a reason that
I did 5 and nobody else wanted
1070
00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:42,240
to so.
Yeah, five.
1071
00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:47,560
Yeah, 5 is not good.
I would say.
1072
00:57:47,560 --> 00:57:52,320
I actually 3 was the first one
that I really, really liked
1073
00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:54,880
because that's where you get
Jason in the hockey mask.
1074
00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:58,320
I feel like the final girl.
I think Tina maybe, I don't
1075
00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:03,200
remember, I think she's a very
good final girl.
1076
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:08,480
I like the setting where it's on
like this farm ish kind of log
1077
00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:12,400
cavity thing, but I also really
like 4.
1078
00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:18,720
I think Jason and four is much
more intimidating, much more
1079
00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:22,040
scary.
He's more like in three, he's
1080
00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:25,760
kind of lazy.
Like he's just like when he when
1081
00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:29,240
he first gets the mask, he just
like walks off all the dock all
1082
00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:33,120
just like, oh, whatever. 4 is.
When he finally, that's when
1083
00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:35,560
he's busting through doors.
That's when he jumps through the
1084
00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:39,440
window to grab Corey Feldman.
That was the first like, oh wow,
1085
00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:45,280
Jason, he's scary.
But I do love 66 is so good.
1086
00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:49,320
You get the undead Jason, you
get the OK, Now he's, he was
1087
00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:53,520
always a little scary, but now
he's we're in unknown territory
1088
00:58:55,280 --> 00:58:58,560
and that's when he becomes super
powerful, like decapitating
1089
00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:01,680
those three people at the same
time and OK, you're like, OK,
1090
00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:08,640
this is a brand new Jason.
So to answer your question, I
1091
00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:15,440
don't know 3. 4.
Yes, I would say 3-4 and six are
1092
00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:17,520
all right there.
If I had to say one, I would say
1093
00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:20,880
3.
OK, yeah, I'm actually, I think
1094
00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:23,400
4 is my favorite and I think we
talked about this.
1095
00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:25,640
I think that was the first one
that I actually saw.
1096
00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:28,440
So I think that was because it's
the more nostalgic.
1097
00:59:28,520 --> 00:59:31,080
But I do like I'm saying with
you, like that was the one where
1098
00:59:31,080 --> 00:59:35,080
he was the most like intimidate,
like a, you know, busted the
1099
00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:37,480
window.
But I do like 6 a lot too.
1100
00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:40,560
So I think I'm kind of like four
and six are kind of like my I
1101
00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:41,960
kind of go back and forth with
those 2.
1102
00:59:41,960 --> 00:59:45,040
Not that I've seen them a whole.
I think I've seen 4 the most,
1103
00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:47,040
which is probably why it's the
one that I remember the most.
1104
00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:51,440
But yeah, a good franchise
nonetheless.
1105
00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:55,160
We've we've we've had a good
time covering them at least I
1106
00:59:55,160 --> 01:00:00,480
have.
So my $13 well spent on Voodoo
1107
01:00:00,480 --> 01:00:03,400
before it was before it was
Fandango at home when it was one
1108
01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:06,400
Friday the 13th like get the
Friday the 13th collection for
1109
01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:10,760
$13 like I will buy that right
now and good deal it is come in
1110
01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:11,960
handy.
So So what are?
1111
01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:13,680
You going to do for Friday the
13th now?
1112
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:17,000
I'm glad you should ask Laramie,
because guess what?
1113
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:20,600
Next month we have another.
We have another Friday the 13th,
1114
01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:23,720
and we're going to move up a
day, and we're going to cover
1115
01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:27,200
Saturday the 14th, and Laramie's
going to join me for that one.
1116
01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:30,320
So if you haven't seen it,
you've got a month to get ready.
1117
01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:36,360
But it's a pretty silly parody
of the, you know, of the genre.
1118
01:00:36,720 --> 01:00:40,200
But pretty, Yeah, pretty silly,
Pretty fun when we.
1119
01:00:40,200 --> 01:00:42,360
Get to do the sequel.
Was that in the 80s or did that
1120
01:00:42,360 --> 01:00:46,120
make it to the 90s?
Which was sequel of what,
1121
01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:48,400
Saturday?
The 14th strikes again.
1122
01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:50,640
Well, I don't know.
I don't there must be the 90s
1123
01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:52,520
because I don't think I have to.
I don't.
1124
01:00:52,560 --> 01:00:53,880
I didn't even know that would
have existed.
1125
01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:55,440
I had to pull that up.
So yeah, look.
1126
01:00:56,040 --> 01:00:59,240
Again, I I signed up because I
am a huge fan of Saturday the
1127
01:00:59,240 --> 01:01:01,680
14th and.
By Saturday the 14th you just
1128
01:01:01,680 --> 01:01:04,120
mean Friday the 13th Part 2
because that.
1129
01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:09,320
On Saturday 14th.
Right, right, All right.
1130
01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:11,400
Let us know where you think
Jason takes Manhattan should
1131
01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:13,280
rank on the rewatch ability
nostalgia meter.
1132
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:17,320
And also let us know what your
favorite Friday the 13th in the
1133
01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:23,360
franchise is, if you agree with
us that it's 346 or two.
1134
01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:27,360
Nicholas, which one was yours?
Uh, 3 or 6?
1135
01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:29,840
Three or. 6 I I do.
Like 2.
1136
01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:32,400
Yeah, I.
Mean I and if somebody wanted to
1137
01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:34,640
put one in there, I wouldn't
fight them, I think.
1138
01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:37,840
I'd fight them on.
I think I'd fight them on five.
1139
01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:44,440
Yeah, we'll fight you on five.
Maybe, maybe even 7.
1140
01:01:44,920 --> 01:01:47,000
I would, I would.
Then I would fight you even
1141
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:51,960
harder if you said 9 like like
I'd let you say 5 before.
1142
01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:53,880
I'll let you say 5:00 and 9:00,
but.
1143
01:01:54,320 --> 01:01:56,320
Really.
Oh, OK.
1144
01:01:56,600 --> 01:01:58,200
Hot.
Takes hot, takes everybody.
1145
01:01:58,200 --> 01:01:59,920
All right, Well, thanks
everybody for listening.
1146
01:01:59,920 --> 01:02:03,840
So, Nicholas, what's going on
over at Pop Culture roulette?
1147
01:02:03,840 --> 01:02:05,920
What you got going on this
Friday the 13th?
1148
01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:12,760
Well, probably nothing with the
we, we've been on a great.
1149
01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:17,120
Plug It's a great plug I.
Need to get more excited.
1150
01:02:17,400 --> 01:02:20,640
Every time I ask you, it's like,
I don't know, we'll, we'll think
1151
01:02:20,640 --> 01:02:22,240
of something.
Wow.
1152
01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:25,440
It's, we've been on a bit of a
hiatus recently.
1153
01:02:25,480 --> 01:02:27,640
Like we just put out one
episode, but then we took
1154
01:02:27,640 --> 01:02:29,240
another break because of the
Super Bowl.
1155
01:02:29,680 --> 01:02:33,840
So like I'm, I'm hoping just to
get back into the spring and.
1156
01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:36,360
So we we.
I've got a lot of really good
1157
01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:39,800
episodes planned, I just need to
actually get back into a
1158
01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:41,280
schedule.
Gotcha.
1159
01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:45,560
Gotcha this.
Holiday season really took it
1160
01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:48,960
out of us, so yeah, yeah.
No, you've, you've been, you've
1161
01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:50,440
had, you've had a few good ones
this year.
1162
01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,720
So I like the recap or, you
know, going back and looking at
1163
01:02:53,720 --> 01:02:58,040
your predictions from 2025.
So I haven't listened to your
1164
01:02:58,040 --> 01:03:02,760
2026, you know what you're
looking forward to in 2026 yet,
1165
01:03:02,760 --> 01:03:05,200
So.
But yeah, good stuff.
1166
01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:08,520
I'm sure we'll do a bracket.
We haven't done one.
1167
01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:10,440
We haven't, we haven't done one
of those in a while.
1168
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:13,000
So, you know, it's coming March.
Is coming up.
1169
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:14,280
You've got to you.
You can't.
1170
01:03:14,600 --> 01:03:16,840
You can't let March go by
without having a bracket, right?
1171
01:03:17,040 --> 01:03:18,440
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
1172
01:03:20,520 --> 01:03:21,280
Hi.
What about you, Larry?
1173
01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:25,240
What's going on over moving
panels for Friday the 13th and
1174
01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:26,960
Valentine's Day weekend?
Yeah.
1175
01:03:26,960 --> 01:03:30,960
So Sophia Valentine's we of
course, always do our our date
1176
01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:36,520
night and that that episode
probably should have already
1177
01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:39,880
aired by the time this one's
dropping because I released a
1178
01:03:39,880 --> 01:03:45,680
little earlier in the week.
But over on our Our Side podcast
1179
01:03:46,400 --> 01:03:51,720
King Size, we are releasing an
episode for this Friday the
1180
01:03:51,720 --> 01:03:55,360
13th, and we decided to tie it
into Valentine's Day being the
1181
01:03:55,360 --> 01:03:59,480
next day by covering Stephen
King's A Good Marriage.
1182
01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:01,800
So.
Yeah, we're going to.
1183
01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:04,200
We're going to cover that one.
But of course, when March rolls
1184
01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:07,240
around, we are doing a bracket.
So that's right.
1185
01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:11,480
Yeah, we're, we're going to.
Look for the the best villain,
1186
01:04:11,600 --> 01:04:15,320
adapted villain, so the best
villain that has been portrayed
1187
01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:19,440
on film or TV.
Nicholas and Tim both are
1188
01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:22,280
joining me to to for that and
we're going to let the listeners
1189
01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:26,280
vote on that one.
So tune into moving panel social
1190
01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:28,920
media to vote for the first
round.
1191
01:04:28,920 --> 01:04:32,160
That'll come probably within the
next week.
1192
01:04:32,800 --> 01:04:36,200
Awesome, Charlie, you're going
to be a guest on the other
1193
01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:37,920
podcast here anytime soon.
My.
1194
01:04:37,960 --> 01:04:45,000
Votes scar.
He left the imprint imprint on
1195
01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:47,640
me when I was growing up, so
definitely scar.
1196
01:04:49,880 --> 01:04:54,080
No, but I'm looking forward to
watching My Bloody Valentine so
1197
01:04:54,240 --> 01:04:55,680
the.
Original or the remake?
1198
01:04:56,360 --> 01:04:59,640
Both eventually, but definitely
the original first, yeah.
1199
01:04:59,880 --> 01:05:01,200
Yeah, I got you there.
That's.
1200
01:05:01,200 --> 01:05:03,040
