The Darkest Side of the Night - Metropolis

Written by Fred Mollin and Stan Meissner
Performed by Peter Fredette
Lyrics:
Fallen angels into the street
It's an empty dance
And so incomplete
The hallow voices which spread a cry
For the devil's night
There's a reason why
You tried before, but you can't buy a clue
No matter what you do
The darkest side of the night
Burns like a fire
For the wasted lives
And there's no way you can fight, just show some respect, and try to survive!
On the darkest side!
Neon shadows that point the way, never lead you out, it's a game they play
The madness comes and the madness goes
It's a simple world
But it's all they know
You try to fix it but theres nothing you can do
You just gotta see it through
The darkest side of the night
Burns like a fire
For the wasted lives
And there's no way you can fight, just show some respect, and try to survive!
On the darkest side!
In this city, you give and they take
You reach the limit, you bend, and then you break
And there's no escape!
Theres no escape!
NO!
The darkest side of the night
Burns like a fire
For the wasted lives
And there's no way you can fight, just show some respect, and try to survive!
On the darkest side!
The darkest side of the night
Burns like a fire
For the wasted lives
And there's no way you can fight, just show some respect, and try to survive!
On the darkest side!

[@TheIndependentLens]

Oh this movie was terrible and yes, even back then. Even as fans we were embarrassed by how lousy this one was. All the big franchise horror movies that year were bad; this one, Elm Street 5: The Dream Child (tried to watch again recently and could not get through it.) Halloween 5 was extremely bad; I mean there’s a shot in that where a guy is shining his car and you can blatantly see a movie lamp in the reflection on the car.) Anyway, the lousy entries of horror in 1989 led to the horror slump that with a few exceptions really lasted until the original Scream came out in 1996. Scream really brought horror back.

[@house1203]

When did New York stop being sleazy?

[@robertpolanco1973]

@@house1203 - I think it was because of the role of the politicians in getting rid of the crime that has infected New York City, such as drugs, prostitution and too much homelessness as well. Then the new wave of businesses took over and replaced the old ones that were considered "sleazy." That all happened in the 1990's and it continues perhaps even today. For anyone who preferred the old, sleazy days of NYC, have NO understanding the devastating effects of the old period on the lives of the people who felt unsafe.

[@RunLikeAVillain]

I never got that opening monologue thing in the movie…. was it supposed to be a radio DJ doing a lead-in for the song? What was written for him is such contrived horse shit… why was he being directed to do an almost Johnny Cash speaking voice? None of it makes any sense or works well. Why not just leave that shit out and have the song by itself? It’s not a very good Friday the 13th sequel much less a good movie in general, but this song is great. A perfect send off to the 80’s… it sounds like it could’ve been from anywhere from ‘85-89 and you’d never hear anything quite so 80’s in a movie ever again.

[@JaybayJay]

@@RunLikeAVillain Read the irony. They're trapped by a city that they love to hate. That scares them but it makes them feel alive at the same time. There is no escape, except there is. They just don't want to. You can't get the adrenaline pumping without the terror. Basically saying, "We wouldn't live anywhere else, or have it any other way.." Yes. This was the first Jason to leave Crystal Lake so they wanted to reminde people of a simple fact. NY in the 80's was worse than Crystal Lake, and that was for real. There were more murders in NY in one day than in all of a FF13th Movie. And what says NY. Radio dj's.. And there was nothing more 80's than the trailers and the guy doing that voice.. Remember the trailer? They had Jason standing on the docks staring up at NY playing the NY NY Music.. Saxaphone playing great Jazz.

The actor that plays him his real name Is Kane HODDER

[@christianlamas7053]

Espero que no

[@jewlo]

I saw this in theaters in 1989!!! By this time Jason and 80s monsters had become charitures! Horror wasn't SCARY at ALL but just FUN to watch and BINGE ON! The audience just joked and laughed at the screen! The formula had become exhausted by the end of the decade! We didn't see a revival till 1996 with "SCREAM!" Love 80s SLASHERS!

[@trentigalaxy]

i was a kid and begged someone, anyone to take me... cause it was playing in the very mall i was in!! 💢💥💥🔞👁‍🗨

[@nix420stuntd7]

Saw it too, 10 years old.

[@mescc1247]

I love this song! I was born in 1992 but i'm in love with the 80's, specially music and movies, excellent retro style👌❤️

[@lucialeguizamo5440]

Miss the 80s times of music. Spectacular thought out songs like this is what the mind and soul needs. ❤ Always will be listening till the end of my time.

[@broadsidedussman627]

Welcome back to the 80's love It

[@StrigoiVampire]

I Love 80's music

[@re9917]

THE 80'S GOD I MISS THOSE DAYS !! BRING IT BACK !!

[@blackcoffy83]

Brilliant song! The first time I watched Jason Takes Manhattan, this song stood out to me. It sounds haunting but pleasant to listen to 💖💖

[@josephellis9459]

I listen to it most nights In the bath!!! Very chilled, crazy it belongs at the start of a slasher film! x

[@CJCrump]

A timeless classic that never gets old....

[@isaiahscales281]

This song is 1 of the main reasons why I like Jason takes Manhattan

[@tanekawilliams8928]

Me too!

[@robertconrad410]

I like it even though some fans say its the worst one

[@verisimilitude8660]

@@robertconrad410 it's near the bottom for me only about parts 5&9 still has some great moments though

[@MrLavajet]

I appreciate the presence of Kelly Hu.

[@terryporter7642]

Me too. I love this song so much! ❤ I am so glad that this movie was filmed in the city that I was born and raised and still reside there. Big up to the city that never sleeps NEW YORK CITY! 🗽🚖🚕🇺🇸 AKA THE BIG APPLE!! 🍎

[@hahalulu1775]

so 80s.. I'm into this!

[@Leanne-w5n]

1 to 20 seconds you when you pass your test and beat your mom in an argument 🤣🤣🤣

[@Capex567]

Driving in the middle of the night on the way home from work makes makes me feel calm

[@christopherseanpyle7992]

I Was 15 Years Old When My Grandfather Allan Showed Me All The Friday The 13th Movies Now I'm 38, And This One Was My Most Favourite❤

[@spectro1]

THE BEST 🔝

[@HardwoodProductions]

You can't get the adrenaline pumping without the terror good people. I love this town.

[@mrExcellent101]

Would be cool if they remake this movie and actually have Jason in New York City the whole time.

[@BrianSmithNow]

Yes!

[@DemonkaiMugen]

that would be cool lol

[@ExplorerDS6789]

mrExcellent101 Yeah, they wanted to do that, but damn budget restraints kept them on the ship for the first two acts.

[@mrExcellent101]

ExplorerDS6789 That's true. I saw an interview with director Rob Hedden and he said that since he was on a limited budget the amount of scenes actually shot in New York City had to be drastically reduced. The scenes in the alley and on the street were shot in Vancouver, I think only the part where Jason chases the main characters through Times Square was actually shot in NYC.

[@mrExcellent101]

Thoughts of a Human So he'd be on blast on Facebook and Instagram, so what? Jason would still be hiding in dark alleys and abandoned houses and slaughtering people left and right.

[@gabrielquizhpi5313]

Jason voorhes will always be an icon of terror that will not be forgotten by anyone

[@andresdelcampo6733]

New York in one song. I love the city, I've had the pleasure of driving there from Massachusetts so many times.

[@LexGossman]

I dig this song!

[@PPF75]

O.M.G This just appeared after one of My Favourites. Been looking for it forever. Woo Hoo, love it.

[@MrS98VAC]

The power of the 1980's is REALLY strong here!

[@InfiniteLogic718]

Damn this is a classic. This is one of the best songs I've ever heard off of a soundtrack. Damn I miss the 80's soundtracks!

[@bfinj]

This song is one of the best from the whole series. Sets the mood for the movie too!!!

[@terexdavis796]

I've always loved this song. I would always rent this cult classic back in the day when we still had Blockbuster and Hollywood video. I'm very glad I was able to meet Kane Hodder back in Chicago a few years ago. He's such nice man and my personal opinion he played Jason Voorhees the best. To me had made the character so legendary. Thanks for the upload 🙂

[@vatoloco8482]

Damn you named dropped Hollywood video and blockbuster. You just took me back to my childhood

[@lukemiller118]

Pure 80's, a Nostalgic sadness as if saying goodbye to the 80's

[@thomasbridges6177]

In my eyes, even Julius got his head chopped off by Jason, Julius is still my hero because he was stranded on the top of the building with Jason chasing him, he had to conquered his fears and have no choice but to boxed Jason in order to stay alive, so he kept boxing Jason continued to pound him in the face and was giving everything he got to try to knock out Jason until he run out of energy than Jason took control of him and killed Julius. Julius is one of my inspiration and should be an inspiration to others that when things get tough, never give up and try your best of all your abilities to defeat your biggest fear, even if you can't take it anymore.

[@VictorNewman201]

Well said!

[@MrGIJuu]

Absolutely

[@FookMi69]

That was probably my favourite scene in the movie for that very reason.

[@grimm_destroyer5566]

That's probably where Mortal Kombat got the idea for Johnny Cage's Head Uppercut Fatality lol

[@bonesbrigader]

Cool way of looking at it

[@iooiooi4896]

This song takes me back to summer 89 when I was 14 and just moved to Orange County CA from Georgia! This was only the second movie I'd ever watched in a theater, the first in this strange new state. Earnest Goes To Camp was the first!

[@josephcasner626]

Two great movies and both had great music!

[@TheUltraGamer20]

This movie was ahead of its time, but for all of the wrong reasons: it was the first clickbait in history.

[@InformingAndUniting]

well i mean techincally he did go to manhattan. only at the end tho

[@jiminystevens1036]

Isn't it awesome being a child of the 80s? The music the TV shows in the awesome toy lines! Man!!! I wish I had a Tardes so I could go back and live through it again but, as an adult instead of a child.

[@MrRobjs83]

such a classic song

[@EXPLISITemcee]

Rob S. One of those songs that remind you that Jason is right there ...as your walking...

[@MrRobjs83]

EXPLISIT HIPHOP Lol idk about that but its a great song

[@EXPLISITemcee]

Myers vs Jason?

[@MrRobjs83]

EXPLISIT HIPHOP 👍 👍 yeah hopefully they make it
