Many like to refer to FRIDAY THE 13th Part 2 as the debut of Jason Voorhees. It wasn’t…it was simply the debut of him killing people. He left that to his Mrs’ Voorhees in part one! For the first (of many) sequels director Steve Miner didn’t mess around too much with Sean Cunninham’s successful formula, simply adding some more inventive kills and bloodletting.
Jason is one creepy little dude in this one, still without his hockey mask but wearing a burlap sack with holes cut out for his eyes. What appears to be his demise is of course anything but…as parts 3 to 10 will attest.
FRIDAY THE 13th Part 2 is one of the best in the series so don’t miss your chance to see it at The Des Peres this weekend.
