One of the first horror flicks I really came to love. Especially how Jason looked and was handled in it. And it made me a massive Nightmare and Freddy fan, where I even caught the original at a midnight movie a decade-ish ago.

I remember I watched The Nightmare on Elm Street Movies, and one of the Jason movies (I don't remember the title), and although I barely saw any of the Jason movie, unlike the The Nightmare on Elm Street Movies, I'll want to watch this movie later. I haven't already watched it that's why.

Yeah, while the CGI hasn't aged well the story and prosthetics are still top notch and a lot of fun. And I still love that last battle. Pro wrestling couldn't have booked it better.
Okay, maybe Dusty could have.

Yeah, watching it the other night, it definitely looked outdated, but the nostalgia made up for it. Used to hate this movie, but over the years have really grown to love it.
The wife does not share my opinion, lol. But, she watched it.

This film was the greatest thing i had ever seen or heard of when it came out. I rented this film more times than i should admit... but im terrified to watch it again because i don't think it will live up to how great i remember it being.

It was still good Tony. It's aged for sure, but still was a solid watch. But, yeah, I get ya.

I think there are some horror fans that take the film too seriously - and you can't; you just can't. It really is a joy start to finish and you've got watch it with that in mind - a pure entertainment film with Freddy drop-kicking and dropping elbows like a WWE wrestler! It deliberately has the clichés - the woman at the lake topless, the stereotypical annoying teens, token reefer dude, all of those were deliberate choices.
I've been a Freddy fan all my life (of 42 years) and apart from some of the later movies (Five, remake), I always will be.

I just bought a figurine of Freddy from the first movie. I would love to get a set of this Freddy and Jason. My favorite overall Jason design, followed by both Jason X designs and VIII.

I always wanted to do some collecting of horror figures but i wouldn't know what to do with them.. but freddy would definitely be the first buy. I think i would be up for a second film of these guys going at it again. |
