Is just another day, really, but there's a remake of the movie by the same name opening today as well it seems.
Except, it isn't.
I keep seeing the infamous hockey mask in the ads.
The hockey mask and the undead psycho killer (run run run away) didn't show up in the first movie. The original Friday the 13th isn't about Jason. He's just the poor kid who had to die to piss his mother off enough to kill anyone and everyone in the general vicinity as gruesomely as possible.
Quit fucking with my childhood you fucking gimps.

It was only when they got into the near-endless stream of sequels that they went quickly to camp, and then even quicker to "Just fucking die already."

It was a comedy, not a horror movie, and not even a slasher movie. But it was still brilliant!

Of course, Friday the 13th had that wonderful sound bite...ch ch ch ch ch...ha ha ha ha ha. Although that may have been 2 and later...been so long since I've seen the original that I can't remember.

My main complaint about Nightmare 1 was the "OMG HE'S NOT DEAD" denouement was SO FAR over the top that it just wasn't cool, at all.

When a movie's premise is that a monster attacks you *in your dreams* and you then go on to have extremely vivid dreams of said monster, it would then follow logically that said dreams are about to kill you, y'know?
*Not* fun.
And I never even *watched* the movie.

Except Jason isn't an unstoppable hockey zombie. He's just a psycho guy who lives in the woods growing pot, and kills everyone who comes to take his pot.
No, really.

Jason's death was retconned for 2, and he was superhumanly resilient to survive that wounds that "killed" him in 2, 3, and 4 but not actively superstrong or regenerating until he's finally killed in 5 and then literally resurrected in 6.

In #2, jason isn't even really fond of his machete. He leaves it behind a lot in preference for pitchforks or ice picks or whatever is at hand. It's just sort of Deliverance at summer camp.
Can you tell I watched #2 recently? :)
