Let’s get honest: The highs and lows of the Friday the 13th franchise and final girls ranking
Can you name a more iconic summer horror movie than Friday the 13th? I sure can't! Which is why I was SHOCKED to realize that I have never watched beyond the first film. So I did the logical thing and I spent a full week movie marathon-ing all the 1980s Friday the 13th films to make the most out of my summerween. In this video, I share my journey taking on Jason and I get into my final thoughts on the franchise (excluding the 1990s and 2000s films). I also use the trope of The Final Girl as an excuse to analyze the (often disappointing) ways female characters were written and portrayed throughout the decade.

    If you go back you have to go to more of the historical sites. It really made a difference for my trips. Few interesting things to know: Salem was originally one area and broke up into 2. Salem town and Salem village. The one everyone goes to is not the original. Danvers was the original. Proctors ledge (hanging site), gallows hill and witch house are a must. There a few others that link to the hysteria as well. There's so much to do and places to have fun in Salem. Summer time is my favorite time to visit. I've been there a few times. You'll find many of my recommendations to eat and visit and save money on other youtubers vlogs. I have viewed many Salem vlogs. Derek millen's vids can also give a lot of info as well as Salem app

    My husband and I are still working through the movies! Watching them all in a week and a half is crazy lol 😂 but I respect it I went in having never watched any of the films (besides trying to watch one from the 2000s.. I think they should have left it in the 80s) so I was in for a wild ride but I think they’re a lot of fun. Which surprised me because I am not a fan of gore. I definitely feel like they couldn’t make these movies today 😬😭😂 with Jason’s disability and everyone being disgusted by him and him being a murderer.. and then in part 2 they had mark javis who was in a wheelchair and I was like ok making some progress 👏🏽 but then his kill scene and he goes down the stairs I was like 🫢😭 And then In the second film they had 2 POC as background characters with no lines… and in the 3rd film the first POC to get lines were in a gang and it was so stereotypical and I was like COME ON YALL IM ROUTING FOR YOUUU WE WERE ALL ROUTING FOR YOUUU I’ve definitely come to realize that you kind of have to take these older classic movies with a grain of salt but it definitely does take away from it for me 😕 which sucks bc they’re a fun watch. It’s crazy because the 80s don’t feel that long ago but then I’m like oh wow it’s been 40 years. So far the final girls have annoyed me so bad 😭😂 it is a fun game though guessing who it will be at the beginning of the movie and usually being correct. I’m not gonna lie though I was happy to see Jason GET Ned from pt 1 (he just played too damn much), Scott from pt 2 ( was a creeper) and Shelley from pt 3(he played too damn much too lol) As always you did such a great job making this video 🖤🖤🖤

    Friday the 13th is such a classic, and I love watching them as like background or “vibe setting” movies. I.e. during game nights or during the Halloween party, etc. I honestly couldn’t tell you half of what goes on in the movies.. I should probably sit down and watch them all and pay attention 🤣 I know maybe the first two pretty well, but the other 500 I need to sit down and actually watch them. Loved your video (as always.) 🔪🩸

      “The other 500” 😂😂😂 There are legit so many movies in this franchise but at least it’s not like Halloween with different timelines and reboots that don’t inter-connect. I remember having to research the different “branches” of Halloween film reboots a few years back 😂😂

    Ginny with the pitchfork is so iconic but I'm definitely more an Alice fan, even though I don't consider her a classic final girl. Tina is up there for me, too. Her backstory is really the only one that positions her as Jason's equal and I liked that dynamic. Definitely opposite sides of the same coin given their back stories.🍿Thanks for the Horror Homeroom shoutout! It always makes me happy when people find it helpful with their research.🤓Have you seen In a Violent Nature? When I was watching it, I rather felt like it is what Friday the 13th would be if done today. There's definitely something happening in the switch from the neutral camera POV of the original Friday the 13th and the killer's POV in Violent Nature that I think links the films in some interesting ways. Love hearing your thoughts on the franchise!

    I love slashers and have always enjoyed this franchise, even when it is, at times, problematic. Your ranking is great! Once you cross into the 90's the vibes are different but one of my favorites is Jason Goes to Hell. I can't explain my love for that one 😂 If you haven't seen Slumber Party Massacre I recommend it. It's female lead both behind and in front of the camera. It fits in with the slasher genre all the while being a parody of it.

    I loved the cozy summer hobbies section 🫶🏻 Those cinnamon muffins look so good and yummy! I’ve been meaning to bake more but with this summer heat I just haven’t been in the mood. That was a good haul! That Casper decoration is so beautiful 😍That’s one of my favorite childhood movies; it brings back the best memories

    Ooh, you may have just solved my birthday gift dilemma for a friend with that Chilling Cocktails book!🍹Disliking The Blair Witch Project is my most controversial movie take ever🤣The marketing campaign back in the day was bonkers and for a very brief moment, people really believed it was real. It's also a great example of how awful actors can get treated on a set and in profit distribution. Definitely a film worth talking about! 🎥 Had to laugh at your puzzle revelation. My grandmother would do a 1,000 piece a day even well into her 90s and I can still barely do one that's 300 pieces. But your Frankenstein one will be so cool when it's done!🧩Did you get that car sun protector at Michaels? I need that!🚙Happy Summerween!👻

      Hell yes! I recieved that book as a gift from AmyNoelle and I LOVE IT! Idk how extravagant you’re going with the gifting but it could be fun to add a DVD that’s mentioned in the book or like a movie ticket gift card! As you can tell, gift giving is my primary love language 😂 I can TOTALLY see why you would dislike The Blair Witch. I’m going to research the behind the scenes stuff because wow I haven’t heard about actor treatment. I think I did come across an article about how the three actors don’t see financial rewards off his popularity to this day? I should have put the pieces together then! I am a damn fool to think I could take on this puzzle but I SHALL PREVAIL (mostly because I’m stubborn hahahah) 😂 and I got the sun protective off Amazon! Alsoooo I mention the Horror Homeroom in my next video!! Ya’ll have so many great articles on that website. They came in handy with some research I found myself doing!! 👻

    Aw Lake Tahoe with your family sounds like such a great time. So many memories I bet. I'm definitely an immediate unpacker cause I know if I don't do it right away, I will never do it David Sodergren is an author I haven't tried yet, but I get the feeling they're definitely an author for me. I get those 5 star feels The puzzle makes an appearance!! 😍 I'm obsessed with that Scooby Doo puzzle!!!! Ahhhh I need that.
