Derek

Devil Horns Rating:    

What’s It About?

Years after the strange drowning death of her father, Tina Shepard (Lar Park Lincoln) returns to the site of his demise, Crystal Lake. Her developing psychic powers were responsible for ending his life, leaving Tina riddled with guilt as an adult. While deceitful Dr. Crews (Terry Kiser) tries to manipulate her abilities for his own ends, both physician and patient are in for a shock when Tina’s powers unwittingly free camper-killer Jason Voorhees from his watery slumber.

What’s It About?

The year is 2455. The Place is Old Earth. Once the shimmering blue jewel of the galaxy, Old Earth is now a contaminated planet abandoned for centuries. Yet humans have returned to the deadly place that they once fled. Not to live, but to research the ancient rusting artifacts of the bygone civilizations that caused this environmental disaster. And little does the most recent landing party of intrepid young explorers realize the fate that awaits them.

The 5 Most Important Guys In The Friday the 13th Franchise

Derek

Despite being super violent, bloody horror movies that tend to venture into the realm of titillation for the male gaze an awful lot, the FRIDAY THE 13TH franchise has really been all about the women. Starting with the first film where the protagonist and the antagonist were both women and then going into the majority of the sequels where Jason Voorhees ultimately would end up doing battle against a Final Girl, women have been the central figures in this film franchise. But that doesn’t mean some fellas haven’t played pivotal roles in the action too. So I have listed under the cut the gentlemen who I think have had the biggest impact on Jason and his bloody library of movies over the years.

Friday the 13th Week: Top 5 Friday the 13th Final Girls

Derek

***Originally Posted on 6/13/2014***

If there is one thing Jason Voorhees loves almost more than killing everyone he meets it is the ladies. The proof is in the pudding, folks! Jason loves to spend as much time as possible with members of the fairer sex. Sure he gets all stabby and hacky with them but no one is perfect. With that in mind I have put together this list of the best Final Girls to ever come up against Jason and live to tell the tale.

Friday the 13th Week: What The Hell Happened to Paul At the End of Friday the 13th Part 2?

Derek

Considered one of the best movies in the FRIDAY THE 13TH franchise, Part 2 did a lot of monumental things like killing off original FRIDAY THE 13TH Final Girl Alice, introducing grownup Jason Voorhees (in a snazzy pillow case/potato sack instead of his familiar hockey mask, and presented a mystery that has plagued FRIDAY THE 13TH fans for decades and spurred plenty of questions surrounding the final fate of homogeneously handsome camp counselor/Ginny Field’s boyfriend Paul Holt. Now I have done some investigating and found out all sorts of info about what possibly happened to Paul but even after my sleuthing I still have just as many questions as when I started out.

Friday the 13th Week: All of the Black Characters Killed By Jason Voorhees

Derek

***Originally Posted On 2/13/2015***
Another Friday the 13th is upon us and as luck has it this one falls within the month of February which is also Black History Month. So in honor of the stars aligning these two auspicious occasions together I decided to put together a super-cut of all of the fine young (and some not so young) black actors to have the honor of a gruesome onscreen death at the hands of Pamela Voorhees’ overly exuberant bouncing baby boy.

Friday the 13th Week: 6 Reasons Why The 2009 Friday The 13th Reboot Sucked

Derek

***Originally Posted 5/13/2016***
There is a lot not to like about the 2009 FRIDAY THE 13TH reboot, it was awfully written (by a cadre of writers no less) and mundanely directed and had the unmitigated gall to actually have Jason Voorhees running. Running I say!!! Jason doesn’t run; he walks at a brisk pace but that is about it. But those are not even the things that I am most bothered by. So with that in mind I present to the world on this Friday the 13 of May in the year of our Lord 2016 my top 6 reasons for why the FRIDAY THE 13TH Reboot sucked.

R.I.P. Betsy Palmer

Derek

Sad news for horror fans everywhere with the news today that Betsy Palmer passed away over the weekend. Palmer is most well known as the original Pamela Voorhies in the very first FRIDAY THE 13th movie but she had a long career on stage and screen that spanned six decades.

Why I’m Mrs Voorhees, An Old Friend Of The Christy’s

Derek

The fine toy making folks over at NECA have made one of my Friday the 13th wishes come true by announcing they are going to be making a Pamela Voorhees action figure. I have wanted a plastic simulation of the maniacal mom (in the likeness of the amazing Betsy Palmer) to decorate my desk and now I only have to wait a little bit longer.

You Could Have Coffee With Jason Voorhees Every Morning

Derek

All you would have to do is scrounge up 800 smackeroonies and order this snazzy hand crafted Jason Voorhees Friday the 13th coffee table made by the fine folks down under at SlaughterFX. The detail on this piece of furniture is insane all the way down to Jason’s exposed and decaying rib cage. Check out more pics after the cut.
