The notion that Friday the 13th is somehow an unlucky date has persisted from centuries - thankfully it's only falling once in 2022.

While Friday the 13th is considered an unlucky date in UK and the US, the superstition is by no means universal across the world. Friday 17th rather than 13th is the day of bad luck in Italy, and it’s said that this comes from the number’s Roman numerals (XVII).

They want to see Jason Voorhees, of course, complete with his hockey mask and machete. But they likely also want to see some intellectually-challenged teens ( ...

The camera cuts away, but when we return, we see Jason slamming one girl-stuffed sleeping bag into another, a heightened version of his kill from Part VII. Thanks to its overstuffed cast, Jason X sends plenty of bodies to hit the floor. Jason pulls her back up, but only to smash the icy visage on the table, lifting the body back up again to reveal gooey red gore. By setting the movie in (the then-future of) 2008 and 2453, Jason X leans into the legend of Jason. When Rowan and Dr. Wimmer describe him, they’re talking about more than the guy we’ve seen on screen. But where its predecessor Jason Goes to Hell reinvented Jason as a body-hopping worm, X added only one twist to the structure: send Jason to space. Jason feels less like the creation of craven Hollywood producers and more like a boogeyman conjured by 11-year-olds trying to freak each other out. Jason X takes Mama Voorhees’s little boy far into the future aboard a deep space mission, but it carries with it all of the fundamentals of the Camp Crystal Lake where Jason lived and died and lived again. Even better, the film has two of the all-time best in the Friday franchise. It features all the hallmarks of early-2000s future stories, including a hot robot lady (Lisa Ryder as Kay-Em 14), clothing made of mesh and leather, and guys who call themselves “Azreal.” Moreover, it has a completely overstuffed cast, filled mostly with people who show up for a couple of minutes to crack jokes and then get killed. Those looking to get the whole experience in one film may choose the 2009 remake, but that movie tries to ground the story too much. It may surprise some Friday neophytes to learn that as formulaic as the series may be, not every entry contains all of those expected elements. But they likely also want to see some intellectually-challenged teens (played by people in their late 20s and early 30s) get torn apart by a lumbering monster they could never hope to stop.

Ah, Friday the 13th. We all have collective ants in our pants wishing and hoping that all of the legal drama surrounding the franchise will dissipate so.

The sculpt and application of the make-up is wonderful, allowing Hodder to really emote underneath it all. 1. “On Friday the 13th, Jason is back. Having been rotting at the bottom of Crystal Lake for…well, a long time, Jason is resurrected by Carrie stand-in Tina. Savini takes his “mongoloid” design from the original film and extends it here for the adult version of Jason – giving the character one of his most frightening unmasked appearances of the all 12 films. The mask in this film is great. The aforementioned Derek Mears is a brilliantly physical Jason. He gives the role his all and gives other fan favorite performers a run for their money for Best Jason status. The Final Chapter’s Jason isn’t much different than Part 3D’s Jason, aside from the bloody axe wound and a slightly more worn look to the mask. While Jason later dons his hockey mask in the film, I would not have minded one iota if the filmmakers decides to keep Jason in the sack the entire time. At first glance Standard Jason in Jason X is the slasher we all know. Despite being slick and futuristic, Uber Jason is still recognizable as the Jason we know and love. He only shows up as a jump scare at the very end and is only seen for the briefest of moments.” Personally, the light gray jumpsuit and belt look is a bit uninspired and the body suit Hodder wears is a little too bulky.

With his hockey mask and his machete, Friday the 13th's Jason Voorhees is one of the most recognizable villains in horror, even if his onscreen track record ...

It tells a shortened version of Jason’s origin story, before setting him loose on the requisite group of attractive young people lined up to get killed. Freddy manipulates Jason from the afterlife, as a way for Freddy to return and once again slaughter people in their dreams, which eventually leads to a showdown between the two killers. Robert Englund makes his final onscreen appearance as Freddy from the Nightmare on Elm Street films, and it’s more of a Freddy movie with a bit of Jason thrown in. A cryogenically frozen Jason is revived hundreds of years in the future aboard a research vessel traveling through space. Tommy Jarvis returns, too, played here by a third actor (Thom Matthews). Jason Lives is a franchise highlight thanks to the overtly comedic tone adopted by writer-director Tom McLoughlin. He gives the movie a throwback monster-movie feel, with corny jokes and an emphasis on spooky vibes over graphic violence and nudity. Budget constraints necessitated shooting most of this movie outside New York City, so the focus instead is on Jason killing various teens as they take a high school graduation cruise from Crystal Lake to NYC. Eventually, he gets to slash his way through some Big Apple landmarks, but it’s not nearly the triumphant invasion the title implies. Tommy Jarvis returns, now played by John Shepherd, living in a mental health facility after his traumatic encounter with Jason. The movie is a murder mystery of sorts set in this group home for teens, rather than at Camp Crystal Lake, with a killer who mimics Jason’s style but is someone else entirely. One of the foundational movies of the slasher subgenre, the original Friday the 13th doesn’t look like something that would spawn a decades-long franchise. Of course this isn’t actually the final chapter, although at one point it was meant to conclude the franchise. Here’s how to stream every Friday the 13th movie. It’s also presented in clumsy 1980s 3D, which is unavailable to stream, so that modern viewers just witness a lot of objects being thrust awkwardly at the camera.

This, however, is where it gets tricky: Miller now has control over the script and characters from the original movie, but he does not control the title “Friday the 13th,” nor any of the content from sequels.

On the night of June 13th, 1946, an abused 16-year-old Pamela gives birth to a facially disfigured, mentally challenged, boy she names Jason. Of course, the franchise is shackled at the bottom of a lake due to legal issues at the moment, but that hasn’t stopped McLoughlin from writing scripts. In fact, we created so many characters and storylines we realized we had a Limited Series as well as a feature length movie.” And YES, we are heartbreakingly aware that our script, as reported yesterday by CNN, has currently no chance of getting made due to the rights settlement far from resolved.
