'THE HISTORY of FRIDAY THE 13th' Part I - The Original Trilogy.

Friday The 13th began its life as a complete and utter ripoff of Halloween. That’s not me talking smack, that’s not an insult, it’s true! But copycat jobs wouldn’t be the monster under the hockey mask’s lasting legacy, though. Over time, Jason became his own man. Or, his own boy, it’s hard to say sometimes. Friday The 13th would step out of Halloween’s shadow and, on multiple occasions, defeat the Boogeyman head to head at the worldwide box office, proving to movie-goers and hardcore horror hounds that, yes, Jason was indeed an icon of the highest caliber. Today kicks off THE HISTORY of FRIDAY THE 13th!

F13 3 was my 2nd Friday, Chris is annoying but I love Richard Brooker 👍💜🐾😊

[@ShinobiShaman]

​@@mychunkyjordi7585Richard was the archetype. The best hands down.

[@ShinobiShaman]

I think your review of part's 1 & 2 were fairly accurate, but I completely disagree with you about 3. Maybe you've been influenced by other influencers, I don't know. You said the acting was worse than other installments, but I don't think so. None of them are Oscar level. You said you didn't think there was a need to make part 3, but you could say the samething about 4 or the other sequels. Part 3 is my favorite installment by the way. Mainly because of Richard Brooker's depiction of Jason. & his makeup job. He was the archetype Jason for me. The thing is with 3, is to make an honest assessment, you have to see it in 3D. I have a 3D tv & 3D blu-ray, so I've seen it the way it was intended. I'm also a fan of the 3D format itself. & yeah, Pamela jumping out of the lake at the end was stupid, but it was only seconds of the film. I would also add, that part 4's Jason was just copying what part 3 already did. Part 3 came up with that version of Jason from scratch. 4 didn't have to do that. Having said all that, it's an opinion at the end of the day. So to each his own. I appreciated the time you spent making the video regardless.

I have a funny story about how I got introduced to the Friday the 13th series. My grandma, for which I probably would have been eight years old at the time, loved to go to the drive-in theaters and we would go quite often to see whatever the latest films were that released. One weekend, Friday the 13th was one of those films. I’ve been noticed to her, because I don’t think she knew what we were about to see. When the movie started and after that opening sequence, my grandma flipped out over what she was seeing. Though, being the person she is/ was, we ended up staying because I was amazed at what I was seeing and was drawn to it. She sat for the rest of the film with her hands over her eyes. A testament as to how far she would go to make her grandson happy. I think about that a lot every time I see the first movie and subsequent releases. Because if not for her, I may have not been introduced to the franchise and love it so much. Such great times and great memories. Thanks for helping to bring some of those memories back.

Did you see it in 3D? Prob not. the 3D was actually good and people watch these movies for kills. Not Shakespearean dialogue or anything else. If you do come for that then, your watching the wrong movie. Part3 is on of my favs. Maybe because its the first one i saw in theaters at age 10. But it served its purpose.

I finally got to see it in 3D a few years ago when they released the box set with all the movies. I enjoyed finally being able to see it the way it was meant to be but damn, it's hard on the eyes. I could only watch for about 15-20 minutes before I had to take a break because of eye strain.

My fascination with the Friday films started when i was six years old. That was when Friday the 13th premiered on HBO in 1981. My older siblings invited their friends over and the next thing I knew my living room was full of scared teenagers watching the movie thru their fingers as I cowered on top of the stairs listening to their screams and rejoicing in their laughter. My folks thought i was too young to partake in the festivities. They were probably right. I mean, after the film ended, my sister was going to a sleep over at her friend's house across the street. Her and her friend were so scared that the friend called her mom to turn the porch light on and wait at the door for them to arrive!!

The history of the franchise is something fierce. Reading the book, Crystal Lake's memories solidified that claim for sure. I've always been a huge fan of the genre. Truth be told, my mom was a huge fan of the genre and would go on to name her only child, Jason. Why, you may ask? I was born on Friday the 13th, and that was her favorite series. I could only guess that was the reason, but it would be revealed when I was 25. She finally spilled the beans confirmed it. She may not be with me anymore as she passed away in 2020 but I'll always feel her presence. Thank you for bringing in some much needed memories as I'm going through losses in my life. Great job with the vid ☝️🙌✨️🎃

Thanks brudda, glad you enjoyed it. RIP to your mom, sounds like she was a true legend.

[@baneintherain]

I just met Tom Savini at Monsterpalooza a few weeks back for the first time, and he is indeed a legend. Great retrospective, can't wait for more.

Dude heeeellll yea

Amazing Video Ian, Your Work Ethic Is Unmatched & It Why This Channel Is Amazing Happy 616 1 More Time Everyone 🎉🎉🎉🎊

Happy 6'16!

[@ralphgolladay9030]

You never mentioned, unless I missed it,why Jason looked so different between 2 to 3 , especially if it's just one day?

[@616Entertainment]

THEY don’t explain it, lol. There’s nothing for me to say because they never address it!

[@rickbelden2319]

As a kid in the 80s I used to do the same thing in the video store. My mom would be over picking out the latest Police Academy flick or the latest Steven Segal film and I’d sneak over to the horror section to check out the scary box art. Never rented them of course cause my mom would never allow that but it was always intriguing to wonder what the films contained.

[@cuzzisaidso6220]

Bro your Halloween review was the best 👍🙂

[@616Entertainment]

Thank you! If I do my job, this will be just as good.

Regardless of Part 3's uninteresting characters, bad acting and goofy 3D shots (such as the sticks and yo yo), the movie built to a great climax (other than the actual ending). But what makes this movie great and my favorite, next to Part 2, was seeing it at the theater in the Summer of 1982. Richard Brooker was awesome, there was tension during the chase, the kills were great and though the 3D could have been much better, it was still fun on the big screen. And let's not forget the Red Wings hockey mask.

[@616Entertainment]

I’m with you big time on Richard Brooker. One of the best Jasons ever.

[@Jayskiallthewayski]

After Halloween '78 the quality got so bad it's no wonder Jason out did Michael in numbers but Halloween was only supposed to be the one film and no Friday can hold a candle next to it. Not even close.

[@handsomestik]

I have to agree with Stoklasa , the East Coast Crystal Lake is colder and better than the West Coast set in 3. You can feel it

[@Dharp666]

Part 2 is my favorite of them all then probably final chapter and then the remake

[@jeremyrutledge8378]

It's insane how successful this franchise was, considering how boring the movies really are.

[@616Entertainment]

Many of them, yes. But people like mindless, stupid violence. It sells.

[@jeremyrutledge8378]

@616Entertainment I'd say the 80s was probably the only time it would have worked. Today, where streaming/binging is the norm, watching these movies back to back is soooo hard! I bought the box set a few years ago, and my wife and I made it like halfway through the 3rd movie before we just gave up. I wish they'd reboot the series, but thanks to all the legal bs, it probably won't happen. At least we have the never hike alone series. Those are pretty damn good.

[@jacobkubacki2719]

They may have been inspired by Halloween but how’s the rest of the movie from the story line or any similarities between Michael Myers & Pamela Voorhees? I’m going to say that Halloween had to catch up to F13th with the gore. By 2018, Myers became very much more like Jason is than vice versa. It took Myers how many extra movies & a crappy copy write dispute for Myers to surpass Jasons death count. Halloween set the bar but F13th raised it for the entire genre. Yeah, it took 4 movies to get it perfect but its part of the fun too.

[@MrLobo1024]

Jason Goes to hell was the first Friday film i saw when it was on tv on Showtime back in the 90s. I didnt know it was the 9th film of a franchise.

[@birdmanhero]

Also, the dude that narrates his own death in part 4 is still epic

[@616Entertainment]

Hahahahaha

[@codymclemore4816]

Gotta take up for part 3 a little bit.. you say it has no reason to exist but it introduced the hockey mask. Also, the final girl not knowing Pamela and Jason yet dreaming about them goes right into the supernatural aspects of Camp Crystal Lake. They showed that with the ending of the first one.

[@616Entertainment]

The end of the first one was a dream, dude. It wasn't supernatural, it didn't happen. And justifying a movie's existence because a costume change happened to become an ongoing look is a stretch, hahaha.

[@codymclemore4816]

@@616Entertainment I’m not saying it did happen lol none of the endings from the first 3 actually happened. I’m saying the lake messes with the minds of the people who escape. That’s why the endings are always “dreams”. I’m not saying it’s a great movie or that much thought was put into it lol I just love these movies and had to take up for it a bit.

[@616Entertainment]

I hear you. I don't hate III, it just... isn't very good, hahaha. There are a couple I do hate though, and we'll get there.

[@John-bo1sz]

I enjoyed your video. But I will say Friday part 3 is one of my favorites. Yes Im aware of all the idiocy involved but I saw this movie when it was released and it scared me to death as a kid. You're right about nostalgia. I did learn a few new things tho and I compliment you on that. I didn't think there was anything I didn't know already. Am looking forward to your next video now!

[@616Entertainment]

Love the ones you love! Dude I hate a bunch of these, love a bunch of these, it’s the same as Halloween. You do you, brudda.

[@bm2228]

Where exactly is your Tommy Jarvis trilogy cause I can't find It on your playlist.

[@616Entertainment]

It's Part II. It's called 'Finales, Fakes & Facepalms.'

[@111highgh]

I enjoyed the Halloween franchise videos that you did. I'm looking forward to this one.

[@616Entertainment]

Hell yea, enjoy!

[@briana2410]

Nice job man.

[@thehorrorslash8184]

Friday fans, don’t watch this. It’s a condescending take using every negative take given in Friday docs without understanding what this franchise is or taking into consideration what fans have grown to love. Btw, Savini turned down Friday 2 cause he was working on The Burning. Guess that fact wasn't snarky enough?

[@616Entertainment]

Why don’t you just be honest with what you mean? “Friday die hards who are hurt by anything but ass kissing and consoooooom culture, avoid this! It speaks on the harsh truths of Hollywood and several of its projects.” Sorry you don't like a *direct quote* from Tom Savini and would rather point a different reason that he turned the job down, despite, once again, me pulling a **direct quote** from the man himself. Grow up, dude.

While I like Halloween, I grew up with Jason and loved Friday 13th. Hot take, I like Jason goes to Hell (already forgotten if that's it's name). Is it bad? Yes. Is it Jason? Yes. Great content Ian as always x

[@616Entertainment]

It is indeed bad, hahahahaha. Thanks for watching!

Jason fanboys have always had a weird underline jealousy & hatred for Michael. It’s not Michael’s fault he’s outlived the Big 3 and is the most successful of the Big 3 WITHOUT having a vs movie against another horror icon. Welp.

[@616Entertainment]

Being an adult is loving all of the big 3. lol

[@616Entertainment]

Opinions are opinions, no matter which camp you're in. Like I said, I love all 3. All 3 have some TERRIBLE movies in them. Hell, there's an argument that all 3 series have more bad than good. It is what it is, ya know? I can't get down with any of this "well THESE fanboys" or "but THOSE fanboys" stuff. Not interested.

[@Omegaroth666]

Friday The 13th really lends itself to a one-shot format or an annual sort of thing, but that begs the question why would Jason keep coming back.
