Friday the 13th: part 6 Jason Lives

Show Notes

Jason is back, and this time he’s unstoppable! This week on the Grindhouse Syndicate we are celebrating Friday the 13th the right way with one of the most fun entries in the entire franchise. Tom McLoughlin’s 1986 slasher Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives is the film that brought Crystal Lake’s most famous killer back from the dead and saved the series in the process. We dig into how McLoughlin resurrected Jason in an awesome way and blended horror, comedy, and action into one of the most entertaining Friday the 13th films ever made. We also get into the kills, because this movie has a lot of them and every single one is unique. A massive RV crash, a victim folded backwards until his spine and bones snap, a girl who gets her head completely twisted off, and plenty more, all of which the MPAA heavily edited, of course. We talk about C.J. Graham’s amazing performance as Jason and why we believe he inspired every Jason Voorhees that came after him, earning just as much credit as Kane Hodder. We also break down the debut of zombie Jason, who is harder to kill and comes with superhuman strength. We absolutely love this one and credit it with putting the franchise back on track. So mark your calendars and join us this week, because the Grindhouse Syndicate is celebrating Friday the 13th with Jason Lives!
