But we did get a post-coital Andy walking around on his hands, and then taking a machete to the groin and getting his lower bits lopped in half.

Friday the 13th savini jason badass pitchfork series#
The death of a series wackadoo, along with the immediate embrace of supernatural weirdness, makes Crazy Ralph the top pick for Friday the 13th Part 2.Īt just the third film in the franchise, Friday the 13th joined the 3-D bandwagon, giving a loosely plotted film the advantage of such unforgettable shots as "having a pitchfork handle's end come at your face slowly" and "having an eyeball pop out in your general direction for half a second." (That second one is legitimately awesome, for the record.) Jason also got his signature hockey mask in Friday the 13th Part III (which arbitrarily jumped to Roman numerals for some of the rest of the sequels).Īs far as iconic deaths go, Friday the 13th Part III wasn't exactly an embarrassment of riches. Ralph is voyeuristically perving while standing against a tree (not the impossible part), and Jason pulls wire across Ralph's throat, even though there's no feasible way Jason could have maneuvered that while standing behind the tree. The second death was not only another reprisal, that of Walt Gorney's Crazy Ralph, but it was also more chilling, and also logistically IMPOSSIBLE even by Friday the 13th's wacky logic. Some might say that Adrienne King's Alice gets the most iconic death, since she was the first film's Final Girl Alice, but Jason's big revenge was a rather bland icepick to the head. That was about all it did, story-wise, with the sequel mostly retreading Camp Crystal Lake visitors getting picked off one by one or by two, in Jef and Sandra's case, which was all sexy until it suddenly wasn't at all. Directed by future horror mainstay Steve Miner, Friday the 13th Part 2 marks the true introduction of Jason Voorhees as the central killer of the franchise, with his dearly missed mommy getting killed off at the end of the previous movie.
