The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far.

I got behind in the thread so apologies if this has already come up, but I just noticed that there's an actual Friday the 13th this October and can only :pray: that there's a challenge designed around it.

Any favs? I watched half of Yes Madam (will get back to it), and still have a couple other 80s ones on the list. I've enjoyed the 90s co-star films though etc. Actually I thought Heroic Trio wasn't so good, or just ok for me. But still, Michelle is great, that cast is great overall.

For a shlocky Maggie Cheung I like, the 80s Iceman Cometh was my jam.

Not thread-related, but I'm actually planning a huge work event around it, with a haunted house and I'm working with top brass to get a big inflatable movie screen in so we can do a double feature of Halloween and Friday the 13th :3: Super stoked.

holy weapon ended up being my fav thing i watched in that group. sex comedy wuxia from the 90s.

you got stuff like women falling in love with crossdressing michelle yeoh, and magical hrt medicine.. tho cw, lot of sexual assault jokes.

yes madam ultimately bore me but its interesting watching it and being like "oh this must have been a lot of people's lesbian awakening movie" lmao

5 has enough going for it that it’s not hurled to the bottom

Plus it has the poop ooh baby enchiladas song.

sure hope no-one throws me off a bridge

5 is such a weirdly mean-spirited one, I kinda love it for just being so horrible. It's basically what you'd get from a Rob Zombie's Friday the 13th.

Plus it contains them drat enchiladas!

6 is probably still my favourite if I had to pick one, but honestly, the whole 4-6 Jarvis Trilogy are all winners.

For me the only truly unwatchable ones are 8 and sort of 7 if only because they cut the gore out so it’s not that fun until the last bit which is very cool. Obviously the best Jason look. But man. Lack of gore at all is just bad.

At the very least I'm rewatching Jason X because I'm really curious how BAD its CGI is today (it was atrocious in 2002 when I saw it).

Five does a little too much introducing characters just to be dead meat. I like to play with my food a little first - just enough to feel like I’m not watching an fx reel but not enough to make it mean spirited. Thats why my top three is some combo of 2, 4, 7.

Also I keep meaning to watch History of Occult but keep forgetting Tubi exists

Part 5 has that one character that shows up at someone's door to ask for something to eat in exchange for work, then turns around and gets stabbed in the stomach. I think he has maybe ninety seconds of screen time.

EDIT:

The Joss Whedon dialogue gives me a loving headache. There's one character that does nothing but spit one-liners for the trailer.

My only issue with Jason x is the spaceship production design is really bad and I wish it looked a bit more alienesq

Otherwise good poo poo. Also my first Jason movie I ever saw

I'm a Jason X sicko through and through. Exactly my kind of nonsense and the fight scene between the cyborg girl who gets the most early-00s combat costume ever and Big Evil Space Jason rules. A ten-star movie in my heart. :allears:

Was Jason X the first movie to use the dual-gun camera? I remember people attributing it to Doom a few years later.
