@@tjjohnson1675 Hes something else, i hate that deadite idea myself, makes jason lame. Jason had a demon worm inside of him that took over others once his body was destroyed, making killing any deadite a usless endevor and creating an unkillable demon worm possessing the whole human race every single time you do. I like to think the worm (its hard for demons to actually get to this plane of existance) is some powerful demon that needed a strong body to inhabit, but because it got an already dead retarded boy instead the demon is trapped in a meat suit with a brain he'll never be able to use. Everyones got their take tho.
@@wadewilson8011 nobody should have sympathy for Michael, there’s no reason why he’s a killer. I know Rob Zombie gave him a backstory in his reimagining of the Halloween movies but the real Michael Myers doesn’t have any reason to kill, therefore shouldn’t be pitied
@Jason Voorhees Part 4 I meant in the original John Carpenter story, not the Rob Zombie story. In the Rob Zombie story, yes he was bullied by everyone. But not in the John Carpenter story, he was just an evil child
Most important was the original to instill empathy for Jason and his mother Part 3 was iconic for debuting his first hockey mask (and the fact that they’ve carried over most if not all prior movies’ damage to the next movies is something that cannot be understated, especially since each movie has a slightly different mask) Part 6, at least the very end of it, was important to establishing the reason behind my all-time favorite portrayal in Part 7… (the lower left corner of his mask being broken off by the boat propeller at the end of Part 6) it also really drives home the message that you should really just leave well enough alone. If he was dead enough to end up buried, then don’t do anything. Jason would still be in the ground and *LIKELY* just a complete skeleton by now if they’d just let him rest in peace… but then the movie couldn’t happen… Part 7 was probably the best overall stand-alone movie in my opinion. The costume and make-up effects are fantastic, the exposed skeletal details goes a long way to conveying just how much abuse he’d taken over the years while making him hauntingly imposing beyond just his size, resilience and strength. The only thing I wasn’t a fan of was the totally unmasked detailing as his lower jaw was sooooo misplaced that it was distracting… but even the moment before his mask split was amazing; the oozing “blood” from his mask-straps digging into his flesh was done quite well Freddy VS Jason is *CRIMINALLY UNDER-RATED* in my opinion. I think a lot of the heat it gets is that Kane Hodder wasn’t pursued to return, which I agree was a bad choice in terms of pleasing the fans and disrespectful to the guy that helped extend the franchise and perfect Jason’s physical mannerisms… but it’s still a fantastically well done slasher crossover with back-story, a believable plot and it actually built up a number of the humans with character arcs and growth, but still gave a very satisfying amount of Jason and Freddy time (to those saying that it’s too wacky/campy; you can thank Freddy for that. Him playing pinball with Jason is on-brand for a guy that appeared to take the form of a car in the closing seconds of the original. He’s a dream-demon with a sense for the dramatic and it actually kinda worked. I just wish that they had done a slightly different closing segment… keep the decapitated head but lose the camera wink… but then go to that teen that got impaled on the shelf-bracket (who was resting against the base of a tree) start to wince as he’s having a nightmare while clinging to life. Have a Freddy laugh play over the scene ~as~ the screen fades to black and back to the credits so the audience is left believing that the teen will live but that Freddy is already alive in the teens nightmare. F vs J is far better than it had any business being, but the omission of Hodder will always hurt its legacy, even though the guy they got did a fantastic job. I got the sense that he’d likely studied the previous 4 movies to get an idea of how Jason should move and emote with his body language and nuance Jason X is bad. It’s bad, it’s not good, but it’s campy/low-budget bad and because of that it comes around almost all the way back to being good (for what it is). It’s clear that a lot of the costume budget was used for Jason. My main complaint was that Jason had hair and no particular signs of a physical deformity. His head looked like a normal dude, but I really did like the embedded shoulder hooks/restraints, and the pre-upgrade version hockey mask was nicely updated while still feeling appropriate for the character. The movie is bad, but it’s not without its good points. It’s the most non-ironically enjoyable 3/10 movie I’ve ever seen. So much so that it might even rank as high as 4/10
No sir! The King of Slashers is currently Michael Myers! He passed Jason with his kill count in Halloween Kills. And he'll only increase it especially in Halloween Ends coming up.
I always got the impression that Pamela was attempting a resurrection ritual in the first movie. (Due to the necronomicon Easter egg in part 9). It needed a number of sacrifices and Pamela was one short, but her own death was the final sacrifice to resurrect him.
Agreed, I thought as well. I thought hat Jason's mother was a witch. Who used something in that book magic and spells. That would caused Jason to come back to life. But now they are saying that. Jason was born with advanced, powerfull, and fast. Regenerative capabilities.
6:08 No, it was a curse. From where? Two canonical options: an Indian sorceress curse he brought for the massacre of his tribe (as seen in the comics), or the Evil Dead's Necronomicon (as seen in deleted scene of "Jason goes to Hell" and "Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash"). No kidding: Pamela used the Necronomicon ex-Mortis to grant his son survival and the Indian curse explains the unnatural skills such as strenght, stamina, un-felt pain and teleportation since there was, few years later the casting of such curse another slaughterman before Jason birth.
Anyway, everything that's been made to fill out the gaps in this mess of a timeline franchise, was just to make any kind of sense to this moneygrab of a franchise, ranging from how Jason survived drowning to how does a dead father jump out of the water with the use of telekinesis. They had no choice, than to go the supernatural path, when everyone involved just wanted to kill the franchise after the first movie, but studios pushed them into making more. Bloody Betsy Palmer only did it to pay up a car, and she was the best thing about part 1. The whole franchise is just a jumping board for people like Savini and Cunningham, to promote themselves, so they could move on to better projects.
Jason Voorhees the poster child of the person that definitely has mommy issues. Also he's a perfect example of people should really take swimming lessons at a young age.
I think his mother did find him after he drowned and had him stay out in the woods so that no one would ever harm him again. I say this because of the point you made about Jason learning his skills to hunt, stalk, kill and even play with his victims. We saw Pamela do all these things in the original so it would only make sense that she would have taught Jason these skills.
Of the 3 major slasher franchises, Friday is the best imo. The bar was never as high as Nightmare or Halloween but it never spiraled as badly as they did either. I’d rather watch Manhattan or Jason Goes To Hell then the worst Halloween and Nightmare sequels.
Halloween spiraled out of the story 1 time they all make sense there’s no outer space movies or no weird out of this world movies they’re all realistic. imo halloween is the best
@Noah Baugman nah you just got the one where Michael is controlled by a cult that makes him rape his niece or the other where he gets his ass handed to him by Busta Rhymes. I’ll take Jason in space over those and the Rob Zombie movies anyday. There’s also the fine Halloween tradition of giving you the finger for getting invested in characters by unceremoniously killing them off. H2,H4,2018, and of course the original classic are the only Halloween films I watch regularly.
@@noahbaughman1642 Halloween III is one of the best of the series. As the other dude said you have the Busta Rhymes fiasco, which is the worst humiliation any horror icon has ever been subjected to. The Halloween's movies with Jamie are almost unwatchable in my opinion. And not just because of the horrific child acting. H2O is self aware without any of the wit required to pull that off. I like 2018 but the premise with the doctor is fuc&$ng r@tarded. Naw dude, only like three or four of the Halloween series are any good. And that's including Season of the Witch. Friday the 13th is full of shlock, but it's almost always entertaining. And they don't shit on Jason at any point like Halloween did with Michael.
@Hideous Ruin Ikr? 2018 was mostly perfect until that out of left field BS with that doctor. He didn’t even need to be in the movie. I swear he must have been a homage to Wynn from H6. What is it with Halloween and these cartoony doctor villains? Like the embodiment of pure of evil isn’t enough?
much simpler theories for how Jason could've learned survival skills considering the reboot establishes he was already a great archer iirc Plus Pamela was excellent with her archery in P1 so he could've for sure got some training from Pamela
You called the two from the Friday the 13th series cousins then a few moments later you said brother sister duo, now I can’t sleep. This is one of my favorite videos y’all have done so far. Please continue your hard work they are appreciated.
I've been a massive Friday fan since I was not supposed to watch them as a kid in the early 80s. You guys crushed it with this video I loved this!! A+ 👍
No he didn't crush it. He got a lot of the lore and kills wrong. I'm a DIE HARD nerd, F 13th and Halloween Fan. I've seen all of these movies at least 20 times each. They did just ok. But he screwed up here and there B+ to A-....at best.
Nice review but I personally think Paul survived in part 2 and there s a few fan films that I feel fit perfectly with this franchise. Some of them are “Jason Rising”, “Never Hike alone”, “vengeance”, and “rose blood”.
@@mondomacabromajor5731 Every segment had a misinformation, ranging from small detail, to big lies. I would have to rewatch it to point out every single thing, but 2 of the top of my head are: Narrator called the halfway house from part 5 an outhouse, and called Melissa from part 7 Jennifer, but there were more. In the bigger picture it's not such a tragedy, but my feeling were, that this video was not made with love to the franchise, but just for the sake of having it on the channel and get 40min of watching time money. And the video didn't give me anything new that I didn't know yet. I would recommend Dead Meat channel for Friday13th reviews. This was just like speedrun of the plots of the movies with very few behind the scenes info.
@@martinmalenak366 No doubt you are correct - i wasn't listening that closely to follow it accurately - i listen to every 'best of Friday 13th breakdown' and enjoy it for what it is .. these guys get it wrong a lot - for sure - but at least they are trying to put interesting stuff out every day which is great ...
@@mondomacabromajor5731 And I have no intention to discredit anyone who is making a living out of making videos, obviously I would not do any better with zero XP, but I do prefer some youtubers over others when you see that they care. I didn't feel that when watching this "marvelous video". One of the reasons why I kicked off in the comment section, calling himself marvelous videos, and making mediocre stuff. Sorry for witnessing my wrath :D
Awesome video guys The Friday the 13th series of films have always been my all-time favorites I absolutely love the character of Jason Voorhees basically an unstoppable killing machine and I'm still wondering why the hell they didn't make a sequel to a 2009 Friday the 13 that one was phenomenal.
It's your all-time favorite but you don't know why they not making more? Have you been watching these movies in a cave and now you discovered youtube? There is a dispute between the original director and writer of the first movie. You're welcome, you can return to your cave now!
I had 2 things I didn't like about 2009's. Jason never kept captives and Jason never ran. Tho it did score points for the topless sex scene with the chick with phenomenal tits
Both the writer and the director. Need to grow up, pull their head. Out of their ass's, and take a look around. To see what we fans are in dier need of. And that is, the both of em. Going back to producing what we fans want. Great Friday The 13TH movies!!!!!
@@jollyrancher9016 yeah, Ted White played Jason in the Final Chapter. He's a retired Marine and did stunts for John Wayne back in the day. He was a tough dude with some hard bark on him. He played Jason with the most tenacity and rage that I've ever seen. It's literally only horror movie to ever scare me. And I started watching scary movies at the age of 4 with the original Halloween (which is still my All time favorite movie). It was something about his performance and as a kid I kind of put myself in Tommy's place. In my parents old house we had a glass door shower. It was just like the one where Jason busted through and crushed that guy's head against the wall. I couldn't take a shower down in that bathroom for 3 months. I took baths in the upstairs bathroom instead. I was 8 years old then. Like I said, I was used to scary movies by then. But that one hit differently.
Great video Marvelous videos, thank you so much!! I can't rmember if you've done this before, but could you please do a video of the entire Halloween Franchise explained!!
Love the way Jasons mask looks. What a tragic backstory tho. His mother died, Hes been bullied by people and tragically drowned in Crystal Lake. My God
He didn’t drowned he was living as a hermit on the other side of the lake. Which fundamentally contradicts his mental handicap. considering the amount of physical ability and mental know how it actually takes to live like that specially for an extended period of time.
I watched them so far apart, I never realized that the kid who shaved his head was the older guy in the later movies. That TV series was fantastic! Nothing to do with Jason, but still a great show
Out of all the Hellraisers you choose bloodline as having no direction, considering the collection of duds I think I'd give up to inferno a thumbs up these days for having a shed more direction than what came after 😂 😭😂
In the novelization of the series, Jason's father was a survivalist and taught Jason everything. He wanted to make sure his son can survive after he died. Sadly, he was murdered from a hit and run that Jason witnessed, upon tracking the jeep that killed his father to the camp he witnessed the murder of his mother and snapped.
@@lesslycarthan956 no bs. The novelization of the first two Friday films are a great read and offers more insight on Jason's mother and Jason with his father.
It's one hell of a horror movie. Especially when you're like 12 going with a friend to see it. Yet, we couldn't wait to see it again with more friends.
I always kinda figured that the first film was his mother attempting some sort of Resurrection spell which required a certain number of murders which she failed at because he hadn't actually die but then in part 6 the lightning finished what she started and brought him back as a variation of a Deadite because of the Necronomicon Easter egg in the 9th film.
There are many theories about whether Jason had lived or died during the drowning. I personally believe he died then was resurrected when his mother died. It was five years between 1 and 2, if Jason aged 5 years he could be an abnormally large late teenager.
It is very weird since his mom said he wasn't a good, yet he somehow managed to stay underwater enough for people to think he and managed to swim out, very unlikely for someone who was supposedly not a very good swimmer
He was resurrected by his mom, theres a hint to the nercnomicron in part 9 or 8 I forget ( doubt I spelled that correctly lmao), she needed a certain amount of sacrifices to bring him back an was one short, when she was killed it counted as the final sacrifice
always wondering why jason don't go find his mom... I think he really died but was called back by some dark magic and he didn't really know what to do... his head all messed up and still the intelligence of a 11year old
09:00 Alice goes into the lake with the canoe, not Christy. Still don't watch the movies you explore 27:19 You had it backwards, he "harpooned" the first mate and slit the captains throat. 31:14 Creighton Duke had the baby, not Jason 37:54 No ship crashes on Earth 2, only his mask makes it, he burns up on entry
No matter who tries to explain Jason Voorhees, EVERY scenario has GIGANTIC plot holes. For example: If Jason did survive and didn't drown, why wouldn't he go home? He could look for help if he couldn't remember how to get home. But now as grown he can operate any tool, build a shack, kill someone near others and they don't hear him. If he can do that, I'm sure he could find his way home.
The only explanation I can infer from Jason surviving (that's not supernatural) is Jason went underwater and then hid under the deck. As the children went to get the councillors, Jason got out of the water and ran into the woods.
Jason always acted supernaturally even in the old movies the only difference is they were more grounded. The only logical explanation that makes sense is that he drowned and died but his spirit wouldn't rest kind of like the Crow lol.
@@boomstickcritique902 I disagree because if his spirit was inside a corpse, the corpse wouldn't age. In the bar scene in part 2, Ginny theorises Jason didn't drown so that's likely was the writer was explaining to the audience. Jason may've been supernatural from birth and that's how he survived drowning but he wasn't undead until part 6 IMO.
@@JohnStanworth You are trying to look at it more logically it's a B movie series all you have to say is it's magic and just see Jason as a revenant, not a zombie but more mystical type creature who's spirit can't rest. It's a B movie series no matter what idea you go with it will have holes because the series was never planned but by going magical you can explain any plot hole in the franchise.
@@JohnStanworth The idea that was brought up in part 2 that Jason may have survived and lived in the woods was because the director Steve Miner tried to ground the film so it would feel still in some form of reality like the first movie. But because they kept wanting to make more sequels this idea was ignored and retcon out with later films.
@@boomstickcritique902 Which film retconned it? I think part 9 hints at Pamela using the Necronomicon but that film's arguably not canon or a different timeline.
I never knew who the killer was in the new beginning glad this cleared it up for me! Thanks! The soundtrack to Jason lives was so awesome! Jason goes to hell was so weird it was kinda upsetting not seeing Jason walking around with his mask on. Jason vS Freddy was a cool movie tho they did do a solid job on it! I’m ashamed to admit I only watched the remake a couple yrs ago I a really enjoyed it tho
Friday the 13th and Halloween used to scare the shit out of me!! Being almost 60 now they still scare the shit out of me lol the nightmare on Elm Street ones just got to comical the first one was kind of gruesome
I believe Jason was a revenant in the early films (2-4), because there's no way a normal human could survive all that damage. He's killed with a machete in 2, hit in the head with an axe in 3, and nearly has his head cut in half in 4. In fact, it's only when Tommy starts wailing on him with a machete that Jason finally "dies".
Revenants don't die. He was fully human in parts 1-4. He was never "killed" with a machete in part 2. Ginny only hit him in his shoulder and collar bone. That knocked him unconscious. It didn't kill him. He was hit in the head with an axe in 3. But that too knocked him out. Now he was definitely more resilient than the average human being. But he didn't become a revenant until part 6.
They would have been better off leaving it after the first 3 I always thought but I really enjoyed the women of Andromeda vs Jason in Jason x, as I first heard about it the day I got great news of an exam!
bud...bud... "murder" implies unjustified killing... any case of supposedly killing Jason is generally an act of self-defense born from a desperate situation. no one "murdered" Jason, they "killed" Jason... because Jason was attempting to "murder" them, after "murdering" their friends first... legally such acts would be ruled as "justifiable homicide" which isn't a crime, " murder" is a crime. and before you, or anyone thinks to ask if this one little word truly matters that much... yes, yes it does. in this case your repeated use of "murder" in Jason's supposed deaths would, for anyone who didn't know better like we all do, actually paints a picture as Jason being the hero or victim in these stories and not the evil antagonist to be overcome. words matter, one word changes the whole shape of a message or tale if the wrong word is used in the wrong place. use the right words with the correct meaning you wish to convey and it will improve your overall quality... also, I will brow raise, and facepalm less.
Very good video. I’d like to say that I’ve never been a fan of Jason movies and this video proved to me I wasn’t missing anything. I only watched the 6th one and the Freddie one so I didn’t know much and I think I was like 5 when I saw it. Oh well

We are the chosen few who actually love it 😆😅🤣🤣
It made me feel all the emotions lol
It's one of my favorites as well.
Check out the Jason X books
This guy , Jason is an absolute legend. I've enjoyed his slice n slash style !!
Jason Voorhees the poster child of the person that definitely has mommy issues. Also he's a perfect example of people should really take swimming lessons at a young age.
I wouldn’t say he has mommy issues that poster goes to Norman bates
@@supremeleader7863 agreed; he didn't have mommy issues, just his mommy had issues
HANDS DOWN ON THAT ONE DAMN MAN 😜
My mother would do the same if some kids bullied me.
Lmao 😂
Jason was always supernatural before part VI. His body was just more frail in the early films.
Frail? More like Mortal
So happy this channel is growing, you guys do such good break downs!
One of the best horror icons ever!!!!!
Going to sit back and watch this, nice one MV, can't bloody wait!!!
Thanks for sharing. It brings back memories from the beginning. I love Jason and Freddy. Keep up the great work. I like these intro movie mix's
I don't care what ANYONE says! I love me some JASON X. It's so cheesy good. This is Friday the 13th, not Hamlet.
The space ones are always good for a laugh, like this scene 37:56
I feel the same way about part 8. It was so bad that it was good
Love Jason X. Better then most Halloween sequels.
Jason x was terrible
Me too. No need to justify. That's just a matter of taste and génération
I think his mother did find him after he drowned and had him stay out in the woods so that no one would ever harm him again. I say this because of the point you made about Jason learning his skills to hunt, stalk, kill and even play with his victims. We saw Pamela do all these things in the original so it would only make sense that she would have taught Jason these skills.
Of the 3 major slasher franchises, Friday is the best imo. The bar was never as high as Nightmare or Halloween but it never spiraled as badly as they did either. I’d rather watch Manhattan or Jason Goes To Hell then the worst Halloween and Nightmare sequels.
Halloween spiraled out of the story 1 time they all make sense there’s no outer space movies or no weird out of this world movies they’re all realistic. imo halloween is the best
@Noah Baugman nah you just got the one where Michael is controlled by a cult that makes him rape his niece or the other where he gets his ass handed to him by Busta Rhymes. I’ll take Jason in space over those and the Rob Zombie movies anyday.
There’s also the fine Halloween tradition of giving you the finger for getting invested in characters by unceremoniously killing them off.
H2,H4,2018, and of course the original classic are the only Halloween films I watch regularly.
@@noahbaughman1642 Halloween III is one of the best of the series. As the other dude said you have the Busta Rhymes fiasco, which is the worst humiliation any horror icon has ever been subjected to. The Halloween's movies with Jamie are almost unwatchable in my opinion. And not just because of the horrific child acting. H2O is self aware without any of the wit required to pull that off. I like 2018 but the premise with the doctor is fuc&$ng r@tarded.
Naw dude, only like three or four of the Halloween series are any good. And that's including Season of the Witch.
Friday the 13th is full of shlock, but it's almost always entertaining. And they don't shit on Jason at any point like Halloween did with Michael.
@Hideous Ruin Ikr? 2018 was mostly perfect until that out of left field BS with that doctor. He didn’t even need to be in the movie. I swear he must have been a homage to Wynn from H6. What is it with Halloween and these cartoony doctor villains? Like the embodiment of pure of evil isn’t enough?
@MT B The curse of Michael Myers made Jason X look like a masterpiece.
much simpler theories for how Jason could've learned survival skills considering the reboot establishes he was already a great archer iirc Plus Pamela was excellent with her archery in P1 so he could've for sure got some training from Pamela
What reboot? Are you talking about the 2009 movie?
@@wisconsinking323 yes
He had archery trophies and various other sports trophies if i remember correctly. Hockey as well, I believe.
@@cuylshepherdton7437 Hell yeah, when they were looking through his old room with the bed frame that read Jason on it.
Never saw the reboot, but I know Jason as a kid from the first movie Definitely wasn't winning no archery or hockey trophies.
This is going to awesome , great videos every day keep up the awesome work
I loved the 2009 remake explains how he got around the camp so quickly with tunnels lol and I've been watching the series since 80
Better then the other remakes 😂
Plus his speed and intelligence made him all the more terrifying.
He wasn't really at Camp Crystal Lake in the originals until part 6.
You called the two from the Friday the 13th series cousins then a few moments later you said brother sister duo, now I can’t sleep.
This is one of my favorite videos y’all have done so far. Please continue your hard work they are appreciated.
He should have blocked and grabbed her.
*"Chi, chi, chi, chi.. Ha, ha, ha, ha. Chi, chi, chi, chi..*
*Ah, ah, ah, ah."*
- Jason Voorhees.
Great video once again sir! Jason is a legend!!!
He is always going to get his kills in the end👍👍👍👍
Like no flaws at all? Everything said in this video was spot on, yeah? Were you actually paying attention?
Jason's the ultimate killer in slasher films
Thanks for getting Jason’s monster type correct. He’s a revenant.
I've been a massive Friday fan since I was not supposed to watch them as a kid in the early 80s. You guys crushed it with this video I loved this!! A+ 👍
No he didn't crush it. He got a lot of the lore and kills wrong. I'm a DIE HARD nerd, F 13th and Halloween Fan. I've seen all of these movies at least 20 times each. They did just ok. But he screwed up here and there B+ to A-....at best.
This was great! You won me over with how your video begins with all that footage of Chris and Jason from part 3.😃
Jason is and always will be the baddest "boogie man" ever. JS
LIKE HELL YEAH HE IS 😜
Except that time he got his ass whooped by fred :p
@@AmericanGadfly 34:54 kinda says the outcome
Agreed. Of the big three, the Friday series stands supreme over Halloween and Nightmare imo.
*YOU DAMN RIGHT!!!*
Awesome video. Just don't like how you pronounce my name dude...
I actually got a chance to meet Kane(the Jason actor). He was a SUPER nice guy and more than willing to talk about the movies with you.
He didn’t look nice in pictures lol
He looks scary himself
I feel for him. I always did.
Right, they treated em fucced up as a child
Nice review but I personally think Paul survived in part 2 and there s a few fan films that I feel fit perfectly with this franchise. Some of them are “Jason Rising”, “Never Hike alone”, “vengeance”, and “rose blood”.
Love this channels deep dives into my favourite horror movies! You really do a great job!
This was a great retrospective - always enjoy some Friday 13th to start the day....
Like no flaws at all? Everything said in this video was spot on, yeah? Were you actually paying attention?
@@martinmalenak366 i enjoyed it ... but nothing is perfect - lay your claims?
@@mondomacabromajor5731 Every segment had a misinformation, ranging from small detail, to big lies. I would have to rewatch it to point out every single thing, but 2 of the top of my head are: Narrator called the halfway house from part 5 an outhouse, and called Melissa from part 7 Jennifer, but there were more. In the bigger picture it's not such a tragedy, but my feeling were, that this video was not made with love to the franchise, but just for the sake of having it on the channel and get 40min of watching time money. And the video didn't give me anything new that I didn't know yet. I would recommend Dead Meat channel for Friday13th reviews. This was just like speedrun of the plots of the movies with very few behind the scenes info.
@@martinmalenak366 No doubt you are correct - i wasn't listening that closely to follow it accurately - i listen to every 'best of Friday 13th breakdown' and enjoy it for what it is .. these guys get it wrong a lot - for sure - but at least they are trying to put interesting stuff out every day which is great ...
@@mondomacabromajor5731 And I have no intention to discredit anyone who is making a living out of making videos, obviously I would not do any better with zero XP, but I do prefer some youtubers over others when you see that they care. I didn't feel that when watching this "marvelous video". One of the reasons why I kicked off in the comment section, calling himself marvelous videos, and making mediocre stuff. Sorry for witnessing my wrath :D
Awesome video guys The Friday the 13th series of films have always been my all-time favorites I absolutely love the character of Jason Voorhees basically an unstoppable killing machine and I'm still wondering why the hell they didn't make a sequel to a 2009 Friday the 13 that one was phenomenal.
I liked it too and to people who hate on it I have to point out it’s 10x better then the Halloween or Nightmare remakes 😂
It's your all-time favorite but you don't know why they not making more? Have you been watching these movies in a cave and now you discovered youtube? There is a dispute between the original director and writer of the first movie. You're welcome, you can return to your cave now!
They’re having issues with who owns it. Been going on for years, that’s why they can’t make a sequel till the court case is finished
I had 2 things I didn't like about 2009's. Jason never kept captives and Jason never ran. Tho it did score points for the topless sex scene with the chick with phenomenal tits
Both the writer and the director. Need to grow up, pull their head. Out of their ass's, and take a look around. To see what we fans are in dier need of. And that is, the both of em. Going back to producing what we fans want. Great Friday The 13TH movies!!!!!
I always found his movies so scary growing up and even as an adult it's like I have PTSD because I still get chills.
Part 4 was the scariest.
@@wadewilson8011 I agree because it's when he became supernaturally strong and unstoppable and the creepiness of the score got taken up a notch.
@@jollyrancher9016 yeah, Ted White played Jason in the Final Chapter. He's a retired Marine and did stunts for John Wayne back in the day. He was a tough dude with some hard bark on him. He played Jason with the most tenacity and rage that I've ever seen. It's literally only horror movie to ever scare me. And I started watching scary movies at the age of 4 with the original Halloween (which is still my All time favorite movie). It was something about his performance and as a kid I kind of put myself in Tommy's place.
In my parents old house we had a glass door shower. It was just like the one where Jason busted through and crushed that guy's head against the wall. I couldn't take a shower down in that bathroom for 3 months. I took baths in the upstairs bathroom instead. I was 8 years old then.
Like I said, I was used to scary movies by then. But that one hit differently.
@@wadewilson8011 interesting to know, thanks. 🙏
Great video Marvelous videos, thank you so much!! I can't rmember if you've done this before, but could you please do a video of the entire Halloween Franchise explained!!
Thanks Gerann... We are working on it 🙂
@@MarvelousVideos Thank you Marvelous Videos, I'm looking forward to it!! My favourite Horror Movie is Halloween - 1978!!
I would love to see that one for sure! Plz do it!!
25:00 Fun fact: That's the only kill from Jason with a motorized tool in the entire series.
And he killed Bernie from weekend at Bernie's with that kill
The original ending to Freddy versus Jason was far superior.
The one where will turns into Freddy?
@@Garbageman0 yeah, I guess a little too dark for the test audience.
@@josephbons1 No test audiences complained it didn't make any sense and was too Freddy-centric for a movie about Freddy and Jason.
@@boomstickcritique902 that's great for them. I don't agree and people don't have to agree with me.
This was an awesome video. Great👍job @Marvelous Videos.
He wasn't smiling maniacally, he just had a traumatic look on his face.
You forgot the time Jason made sandwiches on the Arsenio Hall show.
Love the way Jasons mask looks. What a tragic backstory tho. His mother died, Hes been bullied by people and tragically drowned in Crystal Lake. My God
He didn’t drowned he was living as a hermit on the other side of the lake. Which fundamentally contradicts his mental handicap. considering the amount of physical ability and mental know how it actually takes to live like that specially for an extended period of time.
I believe he drowned but was revived by some magic... This explains his little intelligence and his mom believing his death@@Doctor_Odin
Wow. Awesome video of my favorite fictional franchise. Thank you. I look forward to watching your other videos as well. ✌❤
A horror Legend I would like to see him and Michael Myers👏👏🔥🔥
You deserve so many more subs.
29:29 Kane Hodder as a security guard in a movie where he also plays Jason.
Thank you for doing Jason backstory
I watched them so far apart, I never realized that the kid who shaved his head was the older guy in the later movies. That TV series was fantastic! Nothing to do with Jason, but still a great show
The fact that you said the TV series was "fantastic" shows you have no clue or taste in cinema. I can't take anything you say seriously now.
THIS is the one i have been wishing for. Thank you Marvelous Video. Cheers.
My Favorite Slasher!
27:28, man... The good doctor knows where to put his hand to save a life.
Out of all the Hellraisers you choose bloodline as having no direction, considering the collection of duds I think I'd give up to inferno a thumbs up these days for having a shed more direction than what came after 😂 😭😂
This guy channel is awesome
In the novelization of the series, Jason's father was a survivalist and taught Jason everything. He wanted to make sure his son can survive after he died. Sadly, he was murdered from a hit and run that Jason witnessed, upon tracking the jeep that killed his father to the camp he witnessed the murder of his mother and snapped.
Bullcrap story sucks
@@lesslycarthan956 no bs. The novelization of the first two Friday films are a great read and offers more insight on Jason's mother and Jason with his father.
It's one hell of a horror movie. Especially when you're like 12 going with a friend to see it. Yet, we couldn't wait to see it again with more friends.
The fact that it was a wish that brought Jason back is just hilarious
I always kinda figured that the first film was his mother attempting some sort of Resurrection spell which required a certain number of murders which she failed at because he hadn't actually die but then in part 6 the lightning finished what she started and brought him back as a variation of a Deadite because of the Necronomicon Easter egg in the 9th film.
There are many theories about whether Jason had lived or died during the drowning. I personally believe he died then was resurrected when his mother died. It was five years between 1 and 2, if Jason aged 5 years he could be an abnormally large late teenager.
Sure you don't mean late 30's?
It is very weird since his mom said he wasn't a good, yet he somehow managed to stay underwater enough for people to think he and managed to swim out, very unlikely for someone who was supposedly not a very good swimmer
He was resurrected by his mom, theres a hint to the nercnomicron in part 9 or 8 I forget ( doubt I spelled that correctly lmao), she needed a certain amount of sacrifices to bring him back an was one short, when she was killed it counted as the final sacrifice
Yeah he definitely died. But was revived somehow.@@Yesunfortunately-r1x
Great insight into the horrific & sad story of Jason & Pamela Voorhess. Very interesting & entertaining. I’m a new subscriber now on! Thanks sir!
Part 7 Jason is my favorite. So decomposed and gross. Amazing details
Nice vid
damn if only Pamela and Jason knew each other were still alive, really sad backstory.
always wondering why jason don't go find his mom... I think he really died but was called back by some dark magic and he didn't really know what to do... his head all messed up and still the intelligence of a 11year old
@RainZ-yp8xp I think he did try and find her but couldnt and was stuck in the wilderness for some time.
I have been a landscaper for over 20 years and have wandered what a weed eater would do as a weapon. Both with and without a saw blade.
I would love the story of Roy of part 5! As to who he was and why he chose Jason to some what be the iconic killer. Thanks
The movie itself explains it
Great video!!! 💯💯💯👍
09:00 Alice goes into the lake with the canoe, not Christy. Still don't watch the movies you explore
27:19 You had it backwards, he "harpooned" the first mate and slit the captains throat.
31:14 Creighton Duke had the baby, not Jason
37:54 No ship crashes on Earth 2, only his mask makes it, he burns up on entry
He says Paul was killed in part 2, but shows Paul and Ginny walking away after taking care of Jason.
They do get it wrong a lot .... but at least they are putting out cool shit every day ....
No matter who tries to explain Jason Voorhees, EVERY scenario has GIGANTIC plot holes. For example:
If Jason did survive and didn't drown, why wouldn't he go home? He could look for help if he couldn't remember how to get home. But now as grown he can operate any tool, build a shack, kill someone near others and they don't hear him. If he can do that, I'm sure he could find his way home.
I thought Friday the 13th 2009 remake was a solid movie 💯🔪🔥
Love to see Jason's father training Jason, unseen movie....like the fan films and the comic appearance at the graveyard...
This will be interesting !
I grew up in the 1980 these movies were so good to watch
Jason was a innocent angel until his mom was killed n was bullied
Awesome 🤘🏻🤘🏻 loved the video
The only explanation I can infer from Jason surviving (that's not supernatural) is Jason went underwater and then hid under the deck. As the children went to get the councillors, Jason got out of the water and ran into the woods.
Jason always acted supernaturally even in the old movies the only difference is they were more grounded. The only logical explanation that makes sense is that he drowned and died but his spirit wouldn't rest kind of like the Crow lol.
@@boomstickcritique902 I disagree because if his spirit was inside a corpse, the corpse wouldn't age. In the bar scene in part 2, Ginny theorises Jason didn't drown so that's likely was the writer was explaining to the audience. Jason may've been supernatural from birth and that's how he survived drowning but he wasn't undead until part 6 IMO.
@@JohnStanworth You are trying to look at it more logically it's a B movie series all you have to say is it's magic and just see Jason as a revenant, not a zombie but more mystical type creature who's spirit can't rest. It's a B movie series no matter what idea you go with it will have holes because the series was never planned but by going magical you can explain any plot hole in the franchise.
@@JohnStanworth The idea that was brought up in part 2 that Jason may have survived and lived in the woods was because the director Steve Miner tried to ground the film so it would feel still in some form of reality like the first movie. But because they kept wanting to make more sequels this idea was ignored and retcon out with later films.
@@boomstickcritique902 Which film retconned it? I think part 9 hints at Pamela using the Necronomicon but that film's arguably not canon or a different timeline.
I never knew who the killer was in the new beginning glad this cleared it up for me! Thanks! The soundtrack to Jason lives was so awesome! Jason goes to hell was so weird it was kinda upsetting not seeing Jason walking around with his mask on. Jason vS Freddy was a cool movie tho they did do a solid job on it! I’m ashamed to admit I only watched the remake a couple yrs ago I a really enjoyed it tho
One of the all time franchises regardless of genre.Iconic character. Fun & over the top popcorn 🍿 horror with definite longevity.
Ooh wow, I never actually knew about freddy being in Jason goes to hell! Thats kinda awesome lol
Part 6, 7, and 8 are my favorites in the franchise.🔥
@@travzimmerman1340 ...
Friday the 13th and Halloween used to scare the shit out of me!! Being almost 60 now they still scare the shit out of me lol the nightmare on Elm Street ones just got to comical the first one was kind of gruesome
Too bad we never got to see him face off against Ash.
Never say never, let’s hope
"Jason realizes that he has superhuman strength, courtesy of his undead nature," as a paintball hits him 😂
Jason killed Jimmy so he didn’t have see those dance moves ever again
It was then I realised Jason was a hero.
@@annapocalypsezero4719 lmao
Bro this videos are the best
I believe Jason was a revenant in the early films (2-4), because there's no way a normal human could survive all that damage. He's killed with a machete in 2, hit in the head with an axe in 3, and nearly has his head cut in half in 4. In fact, it's only when Tommy starts wailing on him with a machete that Jason finally "dies".
Revenants don't die. He was fully human in parts 1-4. He was never "killed" with a machete in part 2. Ginny only hit him in his shoulder and collar bone. That knocked him unconscious. It didn't kill him. He was hit in the head with an axe in 3. But that too knocked him out. Now he was definitely more resilient than the average human being. But he didn't become a revenant until part 6.
I love how all the characters now all have a last name,when it was never ever mentioned for most of the characters in the movies itself!
They would have been better off leaving it after the first 3 I always thought but I really enjoyed the women of Andromeda vs Jason in Jason x, as I first heard about it the day I got great news of an exam!
I always thought part 4 was one of the best. I could have stopped after that one though.
@@coreyhamby2989 Maybe they overdone it after that, but you can't tell me there were advantages to the 5th one with the waitress and all?
Crystal Lake is in New Jersey and it’s about a 45 min drive to Manhattan
bud...bud... "murder" implies unjustified killing... any case of supposedly killing Jason is generally an act of self-defense born from a desperate situation.
no one "murdered" Jason, they "killed" Jason... because Jason was attempting to "murder" them, after "murdering" their friends first...
legally such acts would be ruled as "justifiable homicide" which isn't a crime, " murder" is a crime.
and before you, or anyone thinks to ask if this one little word truly matters that much... yes, yes it does. in this case your repeated use of "murder" in Jason's supposed deaths would, for anyone who didn't know better like we all do, actually paints a picture as Jason being the hero or victim in these stories and not the evil antagonist to be overcome.
words matter, one word changes the whole shape of a message or tale if the wrong word is used in the wrong place. use the right words with the correct meaning you wish to convey and it will improve your overall quality... also, I will brow raise, and facepalm less.
Life of the party!
Love your description of part 5
19:35 the blue marks were the proof that it wasnt the same Jason
@@lionelhutz5137 Roy
Uh . The proof that he’s not Jason ? He was never Jason lol he wasn’t supposed to be Jason . Not sure what you’re attempting to say
Awesome video, love it :)
Jason is a zombie that is why you can't kill him
The scariest thing about this whole series is that crazy music whenever jasoN is even hinted at
Very good video. I’d like to say that I’ve never been a fan of Jason movies and this video proved to me I wasn’t missing anything. I only watched the 6th one and the Freddie one so I didn’t know much and I think I was like 5 when I saw it. Oh well
jason is the typical " this is how vilian was made"
