On DVD featurette, Betsy Palmer said she needed a car after her last one broke down and being in Friday the 13th would've afforded her a new one. She went on to say that she thought no one would remember the film after it's release, of course that wasn't the case and she became an icon.

Betsy Palmer may have needed a new car, but later on she actually embraced her character, when she started going to horror conventions, and she was shocked at how long her line was with fans.

I personally love both films in different ways, The original is scary because of the mystery behind who's killing the characters and the ending where Jason came out of the lake to attack Alice scared the shit out of me the very first time I watched this. The reboot scared me because of the sheer brutality of Jason and how you I can kind of sympathize with him because if you saw your mother get decapitated in front of you like that it would probably mentally fuck up your mind and cause you to have a lot of hatred. Also because I have a disability myself and my mom is protective of me at times so I kinda connect with Jason over any other slasher villian.

Tough one. I can't decide. I like the idea of Pyscho in reverse and it's a crazy old lady hiding in the woods. The great thing about the remake, you can view it as a sequel. It just introduces Jason to newcomers by sticking 1 to 3 and then we can get back to Jason killing teenagers.

Hey HH! Thanks for the video!

Your delivery is so smooth and natural. I know you have aspirations far beyond KZread, but you are really exceptional at this.

Loved the analysis!! You’re always making the MOST entertaining content 🤍

100% yes to a Pet Sematary comparison!

I loved that intro 😂 once again another great video keep up the great work

You’re choice in beer is on point!!! Good commentary too. You do your research for sure.

Trent didn't care about whether or not saying those things to a woman are proper or not.

Awesome intro, Kylie! Between the two versions of Friday the 13th, I obviously like the 1980 original movie more because it's the film that started it all. It also blew my mind when I discovered on the Dead Meat KZread channel that the killer in the OG Friday the 13th was Jason's mother, Pamela Voorhees and not Jason Voorhees himself until the Part 2 and so on. I thought that Alice Hardy was an AWESOME final girl who defended herself against Pamela, who got decapitated by Alice. It freaking sucks that Jason killed Alice at the beginning of Part 2.

Just discovered your channel and am currently binge watching the comparison videos, dig your style. You should make a comparison of Child's Play (original) with the 2019 remake somewhere down the line

I'm really hyped to see you have a different opinion on the remake now. I've always really enjoyed it

You know, when I went into the theater and saw 2009's Friday, I left very Meh about it. However, over the years its become one of my favorites of the franchise and as a whole, I feel its a pretty solid movie. I actually prefer it, and most, over the original as far as rewatchability. I get bored with the original. I respect it. I'm grateful for it, but the truth is, no one is here anymore for Ms. Voorhees. We come for Jason and 2009 gave us a great Jason. It was such a refresher from the sleepy Jason we got in Freddy vs Jason. I thought the kills were good. The shock that came when our would be final girl died got an audible gasp from the audience. The opening sequence is intense. Jason is brutal. Its just an all around fun time.

Your Intro Perfectly Sums Up The Friday The 13th Universe & It's Overall Premise

Great video kylie! Have to go with the original for nostalgia purposes. And also I love Adrienne King. She's actually an artist in real life and even has her own winery named after friday the 13th called crystal lake wines. She's a sweetheart. But the original to me also has the most likeable characters, best atmosphere and best musical score. Awesome vid!

My sister and her friends were all nearly ten years older than I am and I'd hear them talking about this scary Friday The 13th movie. So I HAD to see it. As a kid, it creeped me out. They picked the perfect place to film it, NoBeBoSco. That place had/has a vibe about it. Then I watched the Scream Greats vhs with Tom Savini being interviewed. I got to meet him years later when I was 14 and I was so starstruck that I had no idea what to say to him. But he put one arm around me and one arm around my sister and we took a picture together. That's one of my best memories. I like how Betsy Palmer referred to him as Tommy Savini, like he was one of the neighborhood kids who played with her kid.

I love that opening love your content and this series ❤️
