Friday the 13th, the saga (If I were telling the story)

Ok, to anyone who actually reads my blog, "My Horror Blog/Vlog" This Blog is being created as an annex page to that Blog. The intention is to Give my favorite Anti-Hero Mr. Voorhees his own area of my attention. I worked really hard to get the screencaps for this page and appreciate it if you don't steal them. If you want to use them, please send me an e-mail and I'll be glad to share. So here it begins Jason, as I see him!

Let's Begin:





So back in 1958 this kid, Jason Voorhees drowns in Crystal lake, right? Well maybe, we've never had a canonical source give us the exact story on whether or not the little creepy mongoloid actually drown or not. Anyways, these two camp counselors are off gettin their freak on, when the poor kid who "Wasn't a very good swimmer." [Mrs. Pamela Voorhees, to Alice in F13, Paramount, 1980] gets in the lake and drowns. So for a few years after that event Pam does everything in her power, from setting fires, to poisoning the water supply to keep the camp from reopening, which it is about to do in 1980, hence the first installment of F13! Well after a night of running, hiding and fighting off Pam, Alice the lone survivor, who incidentally lops off Pammy's head, has this nightmare where she believes that Jason leapt from the lake to pull her under and is still alive. (Hence the name of the blog) See below

Alright! So in 1981 this guy Paul Holt, with the help of his assistants Ted and Virginia "Ginny" Field open a counselor training camp. On crystal lake and next door to....You guessed it, Camp Crystal Lake. Now in real time it's been like, five years, but in real time it's been, like, a year. (enough to confuse anyone) So Jason's off at Crystal Lake minding his own business, eating squirrels, possum and raccoons and whatnot. When he realizes that there're teenagers next door and for whatever reason, he decides that they need to be killed. Oh Wait! I almost forgot! Holt explains that Jason will " seek vengance on anyone who enters his wilderness again" So the big bad mommas boy is the Antagonist of this film!

So Jason kills the Sheriff, this dude, Mark who's in a wheelchair, sending the wheelchair rolling down the stairs in one of the coolest kills in F13 history. Too bad for the Mark cuz he was about to get laid! There was also the spear through a couple mid coitus, (I was gonna say fucking, but it seemed cheap and sleazy). Another guy, Scott gets it while hanging upside down after he stole Terri's clothes which she left on the beach so she could skinny dip! (I do mean skinny!!!! Nudity! OH HELL YEAH!!!! In this installation Jason, aka "Sackhead"

was played by both Steve Daskawisz & Warrington Gillet III. They both did a good job. I liked that Jason is really just being introduced, as a hero should be,in this film. You know, it's not done like we should already know who he is, or why he's doing what he's doing. It's kinda like spiderman, you gotta know where your hero comes from before you really know who he is and what he's about. This was a great set up film.
