Jason Voorhees (again)

First appearance: Friday the 13th part 7: New Blood (in this configuration) (1988)

Part Seven is when Kane Hodder takes over playing Jason. Interesting that he's the fan favourite Jason actor but he's in the movies that the Friday the 13th fans like the least, go figure.

Anyway Jason kills a bunch of people at a cabin on Crystal Lake and fights a psychic. Yet another Voorhees rampage that isn't at Camp Crystal Lake.

TRAILER!

Jason Voorhees (lives)

First appearance: Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981)

This time I felt like drawing my favourite iteration of Mrs. Voorhees' little boy. Here he is as he appears in part 6: Jason Livesafter being killed in "Final Chapter" and then being replaced in "New Blood" Jason was resurrected by the guy who killed him! More Jason Mayhem ensues!

Jason X

First appearance: Jason X (2001)

Some time in the future a bunch of teens on a school trip to earth find the frozen body of notorious serial killer Jason Voorhees. They bring him back aboard their space ship to get extra credit on their report about infamous 20th century serial killers or something. Eventually Jason wakes up and does what Jason tends to do. At least until a robot shoots him a bunch of times.
But then a computer decides to put him back together. Unleashing Jason X!

Can you believe it took TEN movies to get Jason Voorhees into outer space? Even stranger can you believe David Cronenberg is in this?!

Not the worst of the Friday the 13ths but also not the best.

Roy Burns

First appearance: Friday The 13th Part V: A New Beginning (1985)

A few years after Tommy Jarvis "killed" Jason Voorhees he finds himself committed to a halfway house for troubled teens. Shortly after his arrival people start dying. Does Jason Live? Is Tommy nuts? Is it one of the other troubled teens? Could it be the father of that one kid who got killed by one of the other troubled teens?
The first Friday the 13th to not take place at Camp Crystal Lake. Also the one with the highest body count up to that point and the most nudity. Also my least favorite of the series.

Jason Voorhees

First Appearance: Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981)

The supposed "Drowned as a child" Jason Voorhees isn't happy that a bunch of camp councillors killed his crazy mom and embarks on an epic quest to rid the world of teens who are into sex, drugs, drinking and dancing to terrible music. After hunting down the girl he saw decapitate his mom he realizes it's probably easier to just hang around in the woods near the campground where he "drowned" and his mom was killed, and wait for victims to just come to him.

Yeah I know Jason doesn't get the hockey mask until the 3d-rd movie but I like him better in the mask.
Interesting bit of trivia, Friday the 13th part 6: Jason Lives is the best reviewed of the series and is widely considered the fan favourite even though it performed the worst at the box office and, unlike any other chapter in the franchise, features no on-screen nudity.
