We are now entering the late 80's which just so happens to be one of my favorite. 1986 is where the slasher films are starting to make a small comeback, and Jason returns from the dead for the first time. This is also the year that holds my favorite horror movie of all time.
April Fools Day is definitely a guilty pleasure of mine. I just watched it this past Sunday as a matter of fact. Not meant to be scary or even taken seriously just a great dark comedy with a fantastic cast. Including former Friday the 13th alum Amy Steel.
There are probably alot of people who are not going to agree with this pick but I really do love this movie. He may have been one of the hardest actors to work with on this film but Klaus Kinski is brilliant as tenant landlord and former MD Karl Gunther.
I just saw this movie not too long ago but it has easily become on of my favorite movies to watch. The fun factor in this movie is through the roof and probably my favorite movie that starsTom "Thrill Me" Adkins
This year has been a big year for Blu Ray releases thanks to Scream Factory. Finally getting the blu ray treatment it deserves. Tawny Kitaen really is a horrible actress but it doesn't take away from the greatness that is Witchboard. The sequel Witchboard 2 also got a Blu Ray release this year but we will be talking about this one in the 90's.
Here is it my favorite movie of all time Friday the 13th Part VI. I could not get enough of this movie when I was younger and that hasn't changed over the years. The first film when Jason actually raises from the dead and becomes a zombie. The mixture of Jason and dark humor in this film made it great.
A tribute to my favorite slasher of all time, Jason Voorhees. I figured it was fitting since its Friday the 13th. Part 6 is by far my favorite and is also the first Friday the 13th movie that Jason was actually brought back from the dead. The movie is filled with dark humor, a slashing undead madman, and the most surprising of all NO nudity.
On a dark stormy night Tommy Jarvis (Thom Matthews) and his friend from the institution Hawes (Ron Palillo) are driving down the road headed to the cemetery which holds the grave of Jason Voorhees (CJ Graham). The plan is to dig up the grave so Tommy can see he is really dead, and then destroy him. After digging up the casket to reveal Jason in it, Tommy loses it and stabs him repeatedly with a piece of the cemetery’s gate. This sets up the lightning to hit the piece of gate in Jason bringing him back to life. Jason, after disposing of Hawes turns towards Tommy, who runs to his truck to make the getaway. Tommy drives to the local sheriff’s office to report the incident. The only thing he got was a non-believing Sherriff and a nap in a jail cell courtesy of Sherriff Garris (David Kagen). Jason is on the prowl in Crystal Lake again and the only person who has seen this is in a jail cell.
Tom McLoughlin took the director’s chair for this 6th installment of Friday the 13th and wanted to do something different with the series adding a lot of dark humor and a version of Jason that no one has seen before. Jason is an undead zombie who is now even more unstoppable that ever. The movie was filmed in Covington, Georgia and the scenes in the woods were at Camp Daniel Morgan, right outside of Covington. The acting was what people came to expect out of the Friday movies, a bunch of faces that have not seen a lot of screen time with a mediocre performance. That’s not to say that the movie is bad. The acting added a lot to the humor they were trying to achieve with this segment and it was delivered as intended.
Jason Voorhees is my favorite serial killer. I have seen all of the movies so many times he is almost part of the family. Part 6 was actually the first Friday movie I ever saw, which is part of the reason why it’s my favorite. I did recently have the pleasure of meeting the director Tom McLoughlin and his lovely wife Nancy who was also in the movie as Lizabeth. Along with them I met Thom Matthews and David Kagen as well. Every single one of them is great people and was as nice as could be. Tom and Nancy stood around and just talked for at least 20 minutes. Everyone in the movie seemed to have chemistry and after meeting so many of them I can see why. Happy Friday the 13th Freaks!
