Jason Voorhees Character Design Tier List

#fridaythe13th #tierlist
Rounding out the main three it's time to do my tier list ranking of that various looks of Jason Voorhees throughout the Friday The 13th series.
Let me know yours down below.
Enjoy!

[@thehorrorcounselors4747]

Funny enough the part 8 unmasked Jason looked absolutely terrifying in the game…They used the exact look but they darkened the makeup and made it slimy looking, in the movie his face looked like soft foam.

[@teeboz6237]

Yeah, the movie looked like a power rangers villain. It’s a shame after 7 looked so good.

[@ice_fox]

VIII face gets a lot of flak, but it has this sad, almost childlike look that fits Jason better than any other I've seen. Their execution was very amateurish sadly, but I could see what they were going for.

[@ProfessorPerhaps]

Yee part 7 is my all time favorite too homie, the chain around his neck & that crack on the side of his mask revealing his messed up zombie face is just so badass

[@joeymarshall7663]

Agreed 100%

[@LochNessHamster]

Face make-up aside, Part 8 is my favorite look for Jason. To me it's the most dark and creepy. He has this night stalker look about him, the pitch white rotten skin against the black clothes with the yellowed mask is a great look to me, and I love that he's perpetually wet because it shows how he's a creature of the lake. He may have a physical body, but I've always thought of Jason as sort of a ghost or a wraith. The later movies kind of softly retcon that Jason is a zombie because he drowned in the lake, even if that's not what actually happens over the course of the movies, but I really like that backstory and I like that he is basically a ghost that haunts the lake, eternally seeking justice for the ways he was neglected and abused in life. To me, the Part 8 design embodies those aspects of his character the best. I even like the weird screams he makes at the end of the film. They're so inhuman and freaky, and they do kind of sound like cries of a scared child, which is ultimately what Jason is. Also, while I will acknowledge the makeup isn't as well done as Part 7, the reason he looks so bad is because his face is melted from acidic toxic waste thrown at it. Presumably he wouldn't have looked like that if his mask came off before the acid hit him.

[@destoroyah9549]

Jason is more of a revenant (which is someone brought back from the dead in order to seek revenge on those who wronged them in life) than a zombie.

[@EntertainmentFan11]

I think we should just refer to Roy from Part 5 as "Copycat Jason", since that movie DID introduce the idea of a copycat killer.

[@birkinstv4565]

and it was one my opinion a good idea for the franchise and lead us to the GREAAAT part 6

[@JarJarBinks4ever]

I really like the look in Jason Goes to Hell. His flesh is growing around and over the mask almost like the mask is his skull. He is becoming the hockey mask.

[@Shaviine]

Finally someone agrees! I think the exposed skull face without the mask was intentional because 9 was absolutely brutal (tent scene).

[@drizz847]

That’s always been one of my favorite designs as well, just a shame that it was only used for 2 sequences and not the whole movie.

[@SonGOKU-DA1MA]

Fantastic design!

[@THEAnimeHERO]

It's spelled losing. Loose is used when something isn't as tight or doesn't fit.

[@PotawatomiThunderNew]

Maybe he meant that Jason’s edge was beginning to fall off because it was tight enough anymore? 🤷‍♂️😂

[@domasnaudziunas8654]

​@@PotawatomiThunderNewexactly the edge is loosening up

[@shoddyworkmanship4934]

My favorite look is sackhead Jason from part 2. I've always liked the idea of him just being some crazy, super strong, deformed mountain man. The hockey mask feels like a branded look, like he's playing a character rather than just some crazy guy you'd meet in Deliverance.

[@dr.juerdotitsgo5119]

Maskless Jason in Part 3D all the way!! It is by far the best (aside from kid Jason in Part 1) because it doesn't look like a zombie or a monster; he looks like a maniacal, deformed psycho - in a realistic way.

[@randycunningham7318]

I agree, but his face in part 2 is awesome, too.

[@BBall-dq9mt]

Can we get Leatherface?

[@contrast-ratio]

2003 is perfection imo

[@TheGreatBaronOBeefDip]

Derek Mears baghead is honestly one of the best and would rather have seen that, I know we have to have the mask, sackhead is superior.

[@NorthWalesKid]

Friday 3 was the best Jason all round. Richard Brooker was the goat Jason

[@randycunningham7318]

And best movie of the franchise.

[@birkinstv4565]

im such a fan of part 5 jason my heart is so sad :') theeeer is man with no liiife ine iss eyeeeeeee .... comone noboddy :'( ?

[@SonGOKU-DA1MA]

I really like part 5 Movie & design

[@chainyrabbit]

Ironically Jason from 5 i thought looked the best

[@SonGOKU-DA1MA]

From A fan of Jason himself Part 5 is a movie that I love a lot and his design

[@PotawatomiThunderNew]

These might be a little controversial but part 5 is one of my favorite looks, part 7 is an overrated look, and the part 2 look annoys me. I know it’s a small feature to dislike, but the fact that there is only one eyehole drives me crazy.

[@juandouglas9979]

☝️You should react to Dead by Daylight cosmetics for the Killers mate☝️ My favorite Jason is the one that appears in Tommy’s nightmare. Its like a amped up Part 4 Jason, rotten and with worms coming out of his eyes. They could have used that look for real

[@josueismad6778]

You should do the Xenomorph from the Alien franchise. So many different iterations from film to film.

[@SonGOKU-DA1MA]

That would be awesome!

[@lordsidious83]

My two favorite designs are far from the best movies, but they are part 7, and oddly the design in jason goes to hell. I liked how you could see his bones in 7, and how the mask looked fused to his head in the hell one

[@JackFiore-b4t]

Part 3 Jason scared me the most as kid so I gotta go with that one and nothing else comes close in my book. Part 7 while elaborate never really scared me. To me the further away he got from looking human the less scary he got.

[@brandonmakowe674]

1. Part 7 Jason 2. Part 4 Jason 3. Part 3 Jason 4. Part 2 sackhead Jason 5. (2009) Remake Jason 6. FvJ Jason 7. Goes to hell Jason 8. Part 8 Jason 9. Part 6 Jason 10. Part 1 kid Jason 11. Part 5 fake Jason 12. Jason X Jason 13. Upgraded Jason Jason X

[@travzimmerman1340]

You realize part 7 is nothing more than a ripoff of Big Ben from the movie House?!?!?! Jason isn't a "monster" which is why 7-10 are so f'ing lame.

[@tombruncker7013]

Part 8 Jason would be top tier for me if it wasn’t for his unmasked look. But top tier for me is Part 4 and Part 7 Jason

[@tompollockjr144]

Part 7 will always be my favorite version. Menacing, rotted, and perfect.

[@collinhalverson4681]

Acting aside, Freddy vs Jason has one of my top three Jason designs. He looks so visually awesome in that film.

[@acceptable1609]

I agree he looks really cool in that movie the only major dislike I have is the dopey looking eye.

[@collinhalverson4681]

@@acceptable1609 Yeah, can't say I like the dopey eyes either. I'd attribute that more to the acting rather than the overall design, though.

[@13thmafiaracing69]

You guys always leave out Dream Jason from part 5 It's one of my favorite looking Jasons

[@JP-fo5zv]

U forgot about the dream sequence Jason in part 5 !!!!!!

[@wgsoundtrack]

Right. Better than Roy.

[@MrSirMang]

Part 8 masked is the best looking Jason in the series. Part 8 unmasked is the worst.

[@concretemix]

7, Pre-X and X have to be my favorites

[@jareddiamond5133]

Agreed, but I also like the FvJ Jason and the 2009 Remake version of Jason.

[@Cyperstudio]

Personally part 4 and 2009 are tied as my favorite Jason’s. Both are simple but scary in their portrayal. Part 2 and 3 are really goofy but quick, but Ted white cut the shit and turned Jason into a vile man killing machine. And the reboot took the intensity from part 4 and added an extra layer of preparedness, god is he scary. I understand the love for part 7, but Kane is just not scary, at all, in any of these movies. Too slow, too weak, total bafoon. And it’s a shame considering how cool that part 7 look is!

[@travzimmerman1340]

This video is about the design

[@Cyperstudio]

@@travzimmerman1340performance contributes to the design for me

[@sinistervids71]

Part 2 Jason is the best.

[@Emraldyst07]

You should do one BIG tier list at the end of October. All of Freddy, Michael, and Jason’s kills would be cool.

[@ojar91]

Freddy vs Jason design is the best imo

[@nomad5155]

Literally the worst in the entire series, Absolute garbage.

[@Alone-SF]

I like Freddy vs Jason the most probably, he looks just dusty and dead enough, while not like he is constantly in the rain.

[@uselessproductions7867]

I am loving all the tier list uploads!

[@zackphy]

Why does no one include dream sequence Jason from Part 5 in these? I love the visual of the worms coming out of his eyes. Hell, NECA even makes a figure of this version of Jason, alongside a seperate one of Roy, to disquinguish the 2 as seperate characters in Part 5. Someone had to design and create it and someone had to wear the costume and film it, so to me it 100% counts and deserves to be included in these lists. As a comparison Michael Myers technically being in Halloween 3 doesn't count as that's just footage from H1 playing on a TV in the background and not something designed specifically for that movie and filmed separately. But since dream Jason in Part 5 fits that criteria I feel it deserves to be included.

[@andrewblanchard2398]

BEST JASON VOORHEES looks part 3 part 4 part 6 part 7 JASON X / uber JASON

[@rickyrichreacts9667]

I just saw the 2009 one an hour ago it was actually pretty good

[@RaymondHamby]

I don’t think a lot of people understood that the underground tunnel system was a way of explaining how Jason can be walking behind a victim then disappear and reappear in front of the victim later. They tried to ground it in reality using that plot point. Also how he vanishes and can’t be found at times.

[@goofygoober4205]

Jason from Freddy vs Jason I would say is the most used Jason design. It was a reference for the remake, it was taken into MKX and Multiversus. The brown coat over the blue shirt, chain around the neck and hockey mask is the barebones of Jason’s design as of right now.

[@matthewscorner2990]

I agree that the remake was impressive, but I think it's mostly for a reason people don't really realize or talk about. While Jason absolutely is scarier and should be, the Friday the 13th remake gave us a taste of what people need to be doing more with Jason. As much as people say he's iconic and he is my favorite slasher, he's ultimately not seen as much more than a Michael Myers ripoff. By design. They tried making him stand out with a different backstory and it occasionally comes up for plot reasons, usually just reminding us he drowned or reminding him of his mom, but it never amounts to much for him as a character. It distracts him for a moment in between him just silently stalking and killing and him being defeated. What needs to happen in my opinion is for people to focus on what makes Jason different from Michael. Jason is a tortured boy isolated in an abandoned camp he's made his home. A territorial survivor who doesn't understand how the real world works anymore. Michael is an empty husk of a being who kills simply because. While I like Rob Zombie's version of Michael to an extent in trying to give him more of a character, I ultimately feel that shouldn't be Michael's place to explore. It should be Jason's. Jason Voorhees is a character. Michael Myers is a force of destruction. What the remake did is show us a side of Jason we never saw before. Not only smarter, faster, and scarier, but also more emotional. He kidnaps a woman because she reminds him of his mom, forcing him to confront emotions he doesn't understand. I really want to see a future installment focus more on Jason as a character. Delve more into his psyche, have characters experiment would new avenues to combat, confront, or maybe even try to reason with him. Have him struggle with things, have him grow and develop. I have so many ideas for ways they could explore this character and admittedly, over time it may lead him less from a horror direction and more into some kind of thriller/drama, but if people would be open to seeing Jason do more than just kill and die, I really think it could work.

[@Mizzy1981]

Got a question Where did you get that fleshy boney Freddy glove.Also should you add the Retro NES Jason In there?🤠🔪

[@nehemiahpouncey3607]

I just had a strange dream about Jason. He was wearing normal clothing an a Hat going out in public.😂 He still had his mask on.

[@acceptable1609]

My favorite look is definitely either part 7 or or the remake. I love how his face looks when he gets unmasked in part 7 and how it shows his exposed bones. With the remake I like how different the look is my only complaints are the overall unmasked design and how small the mask is on him. The rest of it I think is great.

[@JoFloboltz]

Would love a character design on The Crow.

[@drizz847]

I read somewhere that someone behind the scenes thought the Stan Winston makeup for part 3 looked “too monstrous” so that’s why it was changed to the one we got. I actually like that look as well, it very terrifying and menacing, sucks that it didn’t get used, regardless it’s a great addition to Stan Winston’s catalog .

[@masterofallgoons]

This video would've made more sense roughly 6 days ago, but I appreciate it nonetheless

[@stevemuzak8526]

Could you make another video about Chucky character design and Alien and Predator?

[@dano_the_collector8421]

9 is rotted perfection for me. Love the mask melted in the face. Part 2 is still gross for me. The one eye sack face is creepy af & the final reveal when he turns his head to the balder side yikes 😱

[@cville991]

4:18 Even in part 2-4 Jason did run before becoming a walking zombie.

[@ricanman85]

Pretty close to mine but I would swap part 3 and part 4, part 3 look is more iconic for me and is essentially the base for part 4 so to me, part 3 is top tier with part 7

[@Absoluti9n]

part 7 is my favorite look and the remake is my favorite friday movie

[@carlitosdinkler5213]

Lmao Jason Lives nearly at the bottom? This is the worst tier list I've seen in my life.

[@alexhudson2023]

Love ur videos but in the remake he didnt decaptitate him he swung the machete slitting his throat for tearing his mask off

[@linglongz9713]

I love part 5 cuz he has the most different look from all the others and had some awesome kills.

[@PotawatomiThunderNew]

I have always liked the part 5 look myself. I always liked how the marks on the mask were blue just for that one film.

[@whitennerdyleader]

Did you ever see the custom figure of part 6 and 7 mixed into 1 design it looked very cool

[@handsomestik]

I love 2 but I can’t take the sack head seriously. Thank god for the mask and Brooker look.

[@jaydoubleu3419]

I love part 5 a new beginning bedtime movie ever with a twist ending and part 8 too

[@user-hz4vq1qd2k]

Fvj not being in rotted perfection is kinda crazy to me lol

[@joshsteele9122]

Part 7 Goated no other design touches buchlers design

[@Sonofgrievous]

7 has my favorite face but 3 is my favorite Jason over all

[@JP-fo5zv]

I’ll go with part 4 ,part 6, part 7,part 9, then Jason x

[@jrock8630]

Both of the Jason x costumes are too low.

[@travzimmerman1340]

Part 7 is a lame ripoff of Big Ben from the movie House.

[@JoeDirt-gm5mx]

My top 3 is easily, part 3, part 9 and Freddy vs Jason

[@WeerdWulf]

My favourite of the 80s slasher icons 👍

[@fiveways]

7 is still by far my favourite but as part of the overall look I really like the stature of Jason in Jason in Jason. His body acting isn’t near as good as Hodder’s but his size menace to the character. I still wish Hodder got the role. Same with the remake.

[@travzimmerman1340]

Hodder is bottom 2 only Kirzinger was worse

[@chrissamson9852]

So glad Cody sent me here. Just subscribed to an awesome channel.

[@spongeusz]

my top 3 are: Pre uber, 6 and FvJ

[@FuzztasticFilms]

The animation is phenomenal!

[@Horsemanpig]

I would love to fight Jason

[@marcelosimao2533]

Now, with The Slasher Trio, you could ranking Leatherface,Chucky or even Ghostface.

[@diegolanda3505]

[@sawyersupertube4112]

Put roy and part 2 at the to0 and thats mine

[@jeffupton8799]

Part 7 jason is the goat

[@jeremyshelton2306]

Justice for Roy!!!!

[@TheRealBGregz]

John Carl BEEKler

[@craigwilliamson8167]

6 + 7 are by far the best

[@RoninFT9]

Not technically canon but Savini Jason is unmatched design wise, the black mask, the glowing orange eyes, the chains, the fire shirt, the devil pitchfork. All comes together to make the most fire yet cold design.

[@ScarysReviews]

Takes Manhattan-Mommy's boy, Goes to hell-What Happened, X-Losing his edge. 5.FvJ, 2009, 3, 2, 1-Still gross. ROTTED PERFECTION- 4, 6, 7. Thje 2009 film is technically a SEQUEL as that's how the writers wrote the script, it's set between 2 and 3. so Chris's altercation sums up the 2009 events, essentially.

[@GamingManual]

I would have legit put JGTH in the "Rotted Perfection" tier; that look is right behind part 7 for me, even though we only see him like that for a few mins!

[@TheRealBGregz]

When is somebody going to let Chris know that he’s been using the word “cheeky” wrong? According to Google, the Brits use it as a substitute for rude or disrespectful, while Aussies use it as a substitute for dangerous. I’m fairly certain none of those adjectives can be used as a descriptive for Cody’s shoutout… 😆

[@HardboiledHarris]

1. Great video, sub!! 2. Completely agree with your top picks!! 3. I thought you were too generous with some of your picks; but I guess it's better to be a little generous rather than a little stingy.

[@nwobw]

Oh. It's you. Somehow I keep ending up at your channel and watching your videos. 😅

[@TotalMeltdown2]

Tbh, I don't really care for the Winston design for part 3. It looks less deformed and more demonic. I don't really think it fits Jason at this point in the franchise

[@And_Im_all_out_of_bubblegum]

I’m very happy to see a Jason tier list. For me, as far as live Jason goes, I love part 3’s Jason, he’s a hulking beast. And for undead Jason I always loved part 7 and 6. I do have appreciation for the sack head look though, tough for me to choose I absolutely love these films!

[@hellsdryad]

Ki ki ma ma. 💀

[@jaski4022]

i love how tall and lumber jason is on FvJ. he's basically the frankenstein of the slasher genre so i always liked that look for him. it's my favorite design for the character along Part 7.

[@The_Texorcist]

I would guess the reason why they went with a different make up when it comes to part three is that the original make up looked cool but perhaps they wanted something that looked closer to the shape of Jason’s head in Friday 13th but just aged up

[@xplodingsushi3261]

Chucky next please ❤️ he has so many different looks including the show

[@lastminutepanic]

"Dream sequence" Jason from Part 5 would have been a nice addition here

[@fstopcornea]

Agree with part 7 and 4 at the top, i can definitely believe they are the same person.

[@kylestark8581]

Love your videos bro, if I could make a request, could you do more Hellraiser videos?

[@jtatum1112]

Yep, I'm with you. 7 and 4 are Fave's

[@Joe_Kerr_9797]

My favorite looks of Jason are Part 6, 7, 3, 8, 4

[@brianlehmkuhl8162]

100% agree with this lists and all the explanations ❤

[@prod.purpl333]

this man chris can do no wrong man i swear !

[@emi4860]

Oh yess, the video that I needed!

[@jamesmorant1406]

Part 7 is my favorite design. You see all the damage that was done to him in the franchise

[@MegaSting1981]

Part 7 will always be the pinnacle IMO.

[@nomad5155]

Chris, Live your content. I tried sending you a friend request on fb, but your profile is locked, I have an Amazing part 4, and part 7 bust for sale and was wanting to send you pics. Can I email you or is there any way I can send you pics somehow?
