Friday the 13th is, without a doubt, one of the most notorious movie series of all time. When it made its initial run in the 80s, the movies not only drew the ire of parent/teacher groups around the world. It also was the red headed stepchild in the eyes of Paramount executives. How did the series develop from its inception all the way to the modern day? That is the question myself, Matthew Goudreau, and Mik Duffy will explore in this podcast series.
After 1984’s The Final Chapter was a renowned success, Paramount, perhaps begrudgingly, saw that there was indeed more money to be made and almost immediately greenlit a sequel. Though what they ended up releasing, 1985’s Friday The 13: The New Beginning, is a film that bewilders and befuddles fans and dissenters alike to this day. What was it about this sequel that made it have so many detractors? And is there anyone on this podcast that sees The New Beginning as misunderstood? Download below to find out!
Also, we talk about writer/director Tom McCloughlin’s 1986 sequel Friday The 13th Part 6: Jason Lives. Unlike its predecessor, this film is looked at as a successful slasher film. One which saw the very first inclusion of ‘Zombie Jason’. How do we feel about it? Listen as we decide whether we should just bail while we are ahead, or see this series to its very end.
