The funny thing is, if they had kept the hockey mask and had every new possession wear it, it could have worked as not only injecting some camp into the project, but had a mild commentary element to it.
My favorite part in Jason Goes to Hell is that tue police finally said: "We've had enough of this dude." So they lit him up lol Then gets sent to space with Doom logic, fights Freddy Krueger, gets rebooted, gets a game, then vanishes from the face of the planet. It's tough out there for a slasher, if you aren't Michael Myers or Ghostface.
The fact we got both the Glove and the Necronomicon to set up Freddy VS Jason vs Ash and it never came to pass is the greatest sin in cinematic history.
Hell if you saw the wha happun episode of Halloween The Curse of Michael Myers , New Line Cinema could've almost got the rights of that franchise too if it wasn't for the Weinstein Brothers.
It's a shame this became such a mess. Stuff like the government having a planned response to Jason and the shared horror universe are such a fun ideas, definitely must've inspired Cabin in the Woods.
@@savagedregime8176 Right? It’s like they recognize the ridiculousness of the task and respond with their own absurdity. It makes me want to see Toho handle Jason, their take on an anti-murder zombie defense force would be legendary
Ah yes, the movie that was meant to end the franchise and set up Freddy vs Jason, with it not achieving the former and the latter only happening like a decade after they promised it.
It wasn't intended to set up Freddy vs. Jason, though. Adam Marcus himself says in Crystal Lake Memories that they threw the ending in at the last second and nobody even thought of it beforehand.
Pamela Voorhees using demonic magic and voodoo to bring Jason back from the dead is such a interesting idea that fixes the plot holes with his origin. Shame we never could get that concept fleshed out
I love the old NES Friday The 13th music. I have that clip. The original release on DVD was recalled 3 months after it came out. I never knew why, but Sean's interview being removed makes sense. I bought the DVD the day it came out.
I still can’t believe Sean hated that Jason had a hockey mask, a universe where Jason doesn’t have his iconic hockey mask is like Freddy Krueger without his red and black striped sweater, Michael Myers without his white mask and or Leather face without his…well leather face.
It may sound astonishing, but sometimes the creator of massively popular franchise doesn’t always know what’s best for his own creation. Just look at Miyamoto, who makes head-scratching decisions like “fixing” the on-rail controls of a Star Fox game that were never broke, while recycling the same plot and levels AGAIN, or George Lucas giving the Star Wars trilogy a prequel trilogy whose only positive is being entertainment compared to the sequel trilogy.
Hey Matt, i just wanted to say how much i appriciate your videos. Especially this format. I really REALLY dont care for fighting games or horror anything (sorry) but i still watch many of your videos because they are well made, well researched and one can always feel that you care about the topic and the video quality. I feel this needs to be said sometimes and you should be really proud of this fact. To everyone reading this: have a wonderful day!
@@calemr well, hearing about failed projects is fun and most of the times I never played or cared about the games shown. The backstory is way more interesting.
Same thing here, I really don't watch any streamers/lets plays or anything along those lines, but I think i've watched almost every what happened and alot of the flophouse plays videos because they seem to talk about the state of the game more than anyting.
I was never a big Friday the 13th fan but the fact that a sequel wasn't made off the reboot is criminal. It was such a well done take on the character.
Slight correction: While the idea that Jason is a Deadite wasn't followed up on in a movie, it was followed up on in the Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash comic book series.
It's a great series too, would be nice to have it adapted for a short tv series or something. The rights to it would be more of a nightmare than the game. Shame that got slapped down too, its pretty fun when you can get a server running thats not at 300+ ping.
You know... I've been subbed to you for many a year... But this video will always hold a special place in my heart because you used my favorite tune 8:11from my favorite level in Aaahh!! Real Monsters (The Mall) as your background track for that segment... That track is HEAVILY slept on!! I love you even more now
@@joekerr1607 Agreed on Friday, I still play it on Switch almost weekly with friends. I’m angry with Cunningham over that one too. Nice to see another fan of the game!
Hellraiser, saw, Halloween, TCM, Chucky is getting his own show and a new movie eventually, fuck even Evil Dead is continuing (albeit, without the only thing that's good about it. Ash Williams) It's sad that FT13th is the only franchise stuck in litigation hell
"Despite audiences having grown tired of the same old stuff, they still wanted the same old stuff." Philip Fry said it best, *"Audiences don't want anything original, they wanna see the same thing they've seen a thousand times before."*
Well things exist for a reason. They fulfil a purpose. If you change something so much it no longer does that, then what's the point. having Jason kill a crew in space like aliens doesn't make sense. The point isn't to have Jason try his hat at different things. The point is kids being killed at a camp(or resort, or anywhere with a mix of kids and teens). usually with some relation to Jason's trauma as a kid. Jason's point is to kill those kids, usually in an area he spent his childhood in. But that doesn't mean that we need to see that happen 5 times in a row. So people do want the point of the franchise. But it's boring if they keep doing it(so often, in a row). The lesson is that they shouldn't run franchises into the ground. This doesn't reflect anything wrong with audiences.
Crystal Lake Memories is a fantastic book and I recommend it to any fan of the series / character of Jason. This movie had such potential (and one of the best opening scenes in the franchise overall), with the ties to Evil Dead being laid out too, that it's a shame the end result was so poorly realised.
I saw this movie when I was a kid and it scared the daylights out of me. Looking back, I still think it has some of the best gore and kills in the series.
This is really well done. Nice job Matt. Also I hate how a lawsuit is pretty much derailing all Friday the 13th stuff between Victor Miller and Sean S. Cunningham. Seriously. What the hell.
My favorite fun fact is that the director was super young when he was trusted to direct the film. Being trusted with the latest and potential last addition to a legendary franchise, very ballsy to take on the challenge.
I remember as a kid I was so excited with the title of the film and the poster art, I don’t know what I expected but I expected something mind blowing. I was like “Jason goes to Hell”, I thought it was going to be bonkers, in a good way but it was bonkers in a bad way, body hopping, massless worm Jason bad
The real reason they didn't call it a Friday the 13th movie is because the sub-title "The Final Friday" made it part of the Friday series. Specifically fitting in after Friday After Next.
Well, Steven was played by John D. Lemay who also played Ryan in "Friday the 13th: The Series". Rumor was that Jason's hockey mask would be the last cursed item in "Friday the 13th: The Series" explaining Jason's powers.
One of my favorite things about this movie was the trailer music. It's one of the most epic music scores I've ever heard in a horror movie trailer. It was even reused in the trailer for In The Mouth of Madness, which is not only the best and most faithful Lovecraft movie ever made but one of John Carpenter's best and most underrated movies ever made.
this movie is so insane and makes no sense but it's 100% entertainment. like a lot of horror movies are boring and have down time. this one just never stops with its lunacy.
8:27 Hnnnnnnnnnng!!!! THIS!!! This is what every teen in the 90s VHS collection looked like! This is what every Mom and Pop Video Rental stores walls would look like! Those covers are iconic.
Adam Marcus' next directorial effort was the 1999 romantic comedy Let It Snow, written by his brother Kipp (who's in JGTH as Randy.) It's pretty good, honestly. Stephen Colbert has a cameo as the host of an instructional video about handshakes.
You are awesome for covering this! I was one of the few fan boys who loved all of the films and I honestly did not catch the necronomicon reference/cameo! I will be re-watching this tonight since I also have a huge love for the evil dead franchise! Peace and keep up the awesome work!
12:12 Dang, I never knew that two of my favorite horror franchises really had such an obscure link :O Now the Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash comics make far more sense to me in terms of their existence XD
@@thedarknate08 I don't recall ever seeing a horror movie in theater. I would have loved to in the 80s but now I feel like theatrical cuts are very PGified versions of movies now
Yes bro. I felt the whole idea of body swap really missed the point of Jason. Explaining his origins is one thing but if the explanation you make up doesnt line up with the existing material then it hasn't done its job anyway. I'd be interested to see a video about the 2009 Friday which is my favourite f13 movie.
Remember seeing this in the theater, and can at least say that it certainly got a reaction from the crowd. Hard to say whether it was a good or bad reaction, but people were fully engaged with the madness in front of them lol. And they still cheered every time Jason did appear on screen.
This movie, along with *_Evil Dead 2, Pumpkinhead 2, Bride of Chucky, Hellraiser: Inferno,_** the obvious **_Jason vs. Freddy, Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon,_** and **_Hatchet 2_* all give hints that Michael, Jason, Freddy, Chucky, Candyman, Pumpkinhead, Ash & the Evil Dead, Pinhead, Fluffy the Crate Beast from Creepshow, Victor Crawley, and possibly Leatherface all share a Slasher Universe together.
This movie was crazy and awful but GOD I love the Evil Dead connection, Jason being some special deadite I absolutely love more than anything. Freddy vs Jason vs Ash was an amazing comic that idea again.
Forget about all those educational Saturday Morning shows that air on regular TV (in the U.S. at least)...What Happened is the only educational Saturday Morning show for me! 😁
Don’t care how weird or different it was, I love this movie. That opening scene is about as good as you’re going to get in a Friday the 13th movie as far as turning expectations on their head. And everybody remembers the scene at the end with the glove coming out and pulling the mask into the ground. There’s some pretty good gore splattered throughout as well so I’ve always felt this movie was underappreciated.
Yeah there's some fun with Jason goes to Hell, especially the whole gimmick of Jason hopping between bodies definitely created some tension and gave it a bit more of an identity, which is I feel each of the Friday the 13th films each did quite well at which was each finding an identity for each one, I honestly felt like Nightmare on Elm Street after a certain point felt quite samey, cause it didn't do much differently with each entry.
Honestly, a found footage Friday the 13th could work. Have the beginning be like Cannibal Holocaust where it’s shot and structured like a typical movie, but when the found footage starts playing, it’s shot like it’s from a phone or a camera from the 80’s, 90’s, or early 2000’s. From there, we see what happened to the victims of Crystal Lake.
I'd say What Happened to the Child's Play reboot, but it'd just be you showing that clip of the Simpsons: "Here's your problem. Someone set this doll to evil.".
A lot of us hardcore fans do accept the cannon of Jason being a deadite, and the comic of Freddy vs Jason vs Ash is based off of a screen play that was written for the unmade movie.
With Halloween and Chucky being relevant nowadays, Nightmare on Elm street and Friday The 13th might as well be rebooted. With todays cinematic tech and talent I believe they can help breathe life to the horror genre of movies as well.
I don't remember if it was mentioned in the Freddy vs Jason video but the Evil Dead connection was kinda explored in the comics "Freddy vs Jason vs Ash"
I actually enjoy this movie in a so bad its entertaining way. Mostly because of how unique and absurd it is. It feels like Evil Dead meets The Hidden. Far much better than Jason Takes the Titanic.
Yo Matt, if you want a mess; try either the failed attempt by Disney on the Treasure Planet franchise. Or Fox’s fail Titan A.E. that’s turned into a favored underrated animated movie. Either of them have huge stories behind them, perfect for the channel
This movie was interesting to say the least, Jason's design and the powers were cool but it sucks that Jason was only in the beginning and end also I love Wes Craven's New Nightmare, that movie was fantastic
When I first seen New Nightmare (in 1995 on home video), it legit terrified me for a week. I also seen Jason Goes to Hell around the same time, and it also scared the shit outta me. Granted I was 10 at the time, but I still was scared shitless.
There were talks about Corey Feldman coming back to play Tommy Jarvis one more time, in a direct sequel to Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter, simply called "Friday the 13th: Jason vs Jarvis". Much like "Halloween" (2018) it was supposedly going to ignore everything after "The Final Chapter".
when i was a kid and my friend told me Jason is blown up and a coroner eats his heart and turns into Jason i thought he was lying how did that get greenlit as a scene
Jason Goes To Hell's main theme of some thing possessing bodies and killing people is pretty similar to The Hidden, a New Line movie that predates this by a few years and stars Kyle McLachlan. Great movie, much prefer it over Jason Goes To Hell.

The funny thing is, if they had kept the hockey mask and had every new possession wear it, it could have worked as not only injecting some camp into the project, but had a mild commentary element to it.
That would've been even more awesome than what we got, would've made Sean Cunningham very happy and would be a decent compromise to keep the mask.
Agreed
My favorite part in Jason Goes to Hell is that tue police finally said: "We've had enough of this dude." So they lit him up lol

It's tough out there for a slasher, if you aren't Michael Myers or Ghostface.
Yeah they get pinballed everywhere by men in suits
I'd say Chucky is doing quite alright
laughs in halloween ends

Michael should’ve stayed dead
The fact we got both the Glove and the Necronomicon to set up Freddy VS Jason vs Ash and it never came to pass is the greatest sin in cinematic history.
I think they have a comic about that but it would've been cool to see it on screen.
They DID make a comic series. I've got most of the run.

It's a shame this became such a mess. Stuff like the government having a planned response to Jason and the shared horror universe are such a fun ideas, definitely must've inspired Cabin in the Woods.
I did like the Jason task force bit, it’s nice when a slasher movie’s universe actually acknowledges that the threat is real.
I adore how they're ziplining down trees and performing tacticool combat rolls when he's just standing there getting peppered with bullets.
I agree, the Jason Assault Team was the best idea in this movie, I was just discussing this with a friend and then this video pops up in my suggested…

The deadite connection I could see starting out with Jason still having some sort of sentience, but manipulated by a deadite version of his mother.

I actually liked Stevens character. He just felt like a normal person. He also got the shit kicked out of him the entire movie and never gave up.
We need a new run of the classics. We've got Halloween, Hellraiser and Saw coming back. A new Nightmare and Jason would be great
Yeah, and nothing like the Platinum Dunes remakes either.
@@mr.awesome6011 yeah, the F13 remake is probably my 3rd favorite F13 movie after 6 and 4.

Yeah there's some fun with Jason goes to Hell, especially the whole gimmick of Jason hopping between bodies definitely created some tension and gave it a bit more of an identity, which is I feel each of the Friday the 13th films each did quite well at which was each finding an identity for each one, I honestly felt like Nightmare on Elm Street after a certain point felt quite samey, cause it didn't do much differently with each entry.
agreed, i can appreciate all of them in a way, but i did have fun with this one
Definitely was so fun just watched it again recently. The tent kill during the sex scene was insane. Crazy movie
Honestly, a found footage Friday the 13th could work. Have the beginning be like Cannibal Holocaust where it’s shot and structured like a typical movie, but when the found footage starts playing, it’s shot like it’s from a phone or a camera from the 80’s, 90’s, or early 2000’s. From there, we see what happened to the victims of Crystal Lake.
Another great episode buck
Oh man, Jason: Off Season would be such a fun idea.
Don't think the Splatterhouse music being used flew above our heads! 🤣
I'd say What Happened to the Child's Play reboot, but it'd just be you showing that clip of the Simpsons: "Here's your problem. Someone set this doll to evil.".
A lot of us hardcore fans do accept the cannon of Jason being a deadite, and the comic of Freddy vs Jason vs Ash is based off of a screen play that was written for the unmade movie.
That link between The Evil Dead and Jason is actually pretty neat. It could be used as a base for a reboot, I reckon
With Halloween and Chucky being relevant nowadays, Nightmare on Elm street and Friday The 13th might as well be rebooted. With todays cinematic tech and talent I believe they can help breathe life to the horror genre of movies as well.
13:35 Simpson's meme usage 100% on point
the connected horrorverse was such a cool idea i hope it becomes a thing eventually
Agreed. I wanna see these monsters FIGHT! Jason V Michael, or that skin loving LEATHERFACE! Let them fight!
I don't remember if it was mentioned in the Freddy vs Jason video but the Evil Dead connection was kinda explored in the comics "Freddy vs Jason vs Ash"
Great Stuff, as always!
This came out days after I actually watched Jason Goes to Hell, and I was wondering why it was so bad.
Good to know what happened.
Good video, you should do one of Halloween ends next
the venom, spiderman meme was hilarious and an amazing touch
I actually enjoy this movie in a so bad its entertaining way. Mostly because of how unique and absurd it is. It feels like Evil Dead meets The Hidden. Far much better than Jason Takes the Titanic.
I don't care what anyone says, I love Jason Goes to Hell. It's fun and different. What more can you ask for from the 9th sequel in a dying franchise.
The comic series of Ash VS Freddy VS Jason explains this more and SOMEHOW makes it even MORE batshit crazy.
I believe the footage of Cummingham talking about the hockey mask is on the special features of the Jason X DVD.
Love the background music at the start....from the old Nintendo game yes?
I caught that Pack Man World 2 Night Crawling music, nice touch.
Yo Matt, if you want a mess; try either the failed attempt by Disney on the Treasure Planet franchise. Or Fox’s fail Titan A.E. that’s turned into a favored underrated animated movie. Either of them have huge stories behind them, perfect for the channel
What Happened? Rob Zombie's Halloween (2007).
Some forget duke didn’t die in the movie.
The tent spike kill is one of the best in any horror movie! Shame that the actual movie wasn’t the best that it could be.
Fun Fact: The actors who played the teens were a real couple who broke up months before being casted for their roles.
This movie was interesting to say the least, Jason's design and the powers were cool but it sucks that Jason was only in the beginning and end also I love Wes Craven's New Nightmare, that movie was fantastic
When I first seen New Nightmare (in 1995 on home video), it legit terrified me for a week. I also seen Jason Goes to Hell around the same time, and it also scared the shit outta me. Granted I was 10 at the time, but I still was scared shitless.
New Nightmare is definitely in the top 3 for Elm Street with the other two being Dream Warriors and the original.
@@DerpinPON3 same, and honourable mention goes to Freddy vs Jason because it's a fun movie 🙂
@@ResidentWeevil2077 When it's delivering on its namesake it can be fun. In hindsight idk why people were so hard on it, like, what did they expect?
@@DerpinPON3 sometimes people don't know what's good for them lmao
Matt, can you do a video on Babylon's fall?
There were talks about Corey Feldman coming back to play Tommy Jarvis one more time, in a direct sequel to Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter, simply called "Friday the 13th: Jason vs Jarvis". Much like "Halloween" (2018) it was supposedly going to ignore everything after "The Final Chapter".
when i was a kid and my friend told me Jason is blown up and a coroner eats his heart and turns into Jason i thought he was lying how did that get greenlit as a scene
Just a note: He can't teleport. He actually is a perfect physical specimen and can run really quickly as a result.
Jason Goes To Hell's main theme of some thing possessing bodies and killing people is pretty similar to The Hidden, a New Line movie that predates this by a few years and stars Kyle McLachlan. Great movie, much prefer it over Jason Goes To Hell.
