This is exactly how I feel every time I watch the intro to this movie. I think it’s the reason part 8 is my favorite in the series. It just captures the 80’s so well. Love the “nostalgic sadness” wording. Explains it perfectly.
It's like this... we live in claustrophobia, the land of steel and concrete. Trapped by dark waters, there is no escape, nor do we want it. We've come to thrive on it and each other. You can't get the adrenaline pumping without the terror, good people, and I love this town...
Yo me too man, my dad was so lucky, he was born in 1982, and had a fun childhood, now he's 42 as his birthday was 3 days ago. He loved the Friday The 13th Franchise too!!!
Fantastic song from an okay movie in the Friday franchise! Also, Rest In Peace to Peter Mark Richman, who played Charles McCulloch, as he passed away two days ago.
Respect your opinion sure but, one can’t ignore Kane’s performance in this one, he owns it like no one before or after him. He makes this movie for what it is and then some imho
@@WilliamC84 Didn’t see your reply until now, but you’re right. Kane did really make the role of Jason his own and brought so much to it. One of the best Jasons for sure!
I enjoy it simply for the fact that it was in a different setting that still made sense to an extent even if Paramount didn't go all out with the subtitle and decided to be a bunch of cheapskates with the budget.
Same with me but it’s def because I’m from Long Island and I watched this for the first time when I was 7 so it hit home in a way. It’s not the best the series but I think it’s def the most fun.
My favorites are parts 5 and 7 but I do like part 8, I think all it needs is paramount to go back and add new scenes in Manhattan with a bigger budget and restore and remaster the movie as a directors cut maybe
What's really unique with this movie in terms of the kills is that they are ironic deaths for the characters. J.J. is a headbanger and dies with her guitar banged against her head, Tamera does cocaine and is stabbed shards of glass, Wayne is a filmmaker and dies while being filmed, Julius is a boxer and gets his head punched off, Uncle Charles was a toxic uncle and is shoved in a barrel of toxic sludge.
I can't get over the unmasked Jason just posing like an album cover to this epic tune. Well done sir, I am appreciating all you've done for the rare horror tunes we all love. They really do sound better than other versions availaible.
I love this song, I'm not from the 80's, I'm from the 2000's era another great generation, but to actually see what the 80's has to offer to see, I know it would be just as great as the 2000's era, what a great time to witness the good ole days, what a time It was😭!
I love this song and movie,born and raised in queens New York.this song is incredible to me and growing up it was my anthem and still is,thank you for this upload and remaster🙏❤️
I love this movie. It holds a special place in my heart because it’s the first Friday the 13th film I saw, and I saw it in a theater when I was about five years old. I’m from New York, and even after I got older and rewatched the movie many times, it never bothered me that much of it takes place on a ship or that they didn’t have Jason interact with a lot of iconic New York monuments and locations; to be honest, I think that would’ve gotten old after a while and come across as hokey. I love the film we got, and I love it just as it is.
Don't get me wrong, I love this film too as I enjoy schlocky, campy, trashy movies (especially b movies and Grindhouse/exploitation films) but that gaping plot hole (and there were a few) about how they managed to cross the entire Atlantic ocean to NYC in just an emergency life raft made me burst out laughing while my mom groaned out loud. The fact that the cast & crew even had a Friday the 13th Marathon before they made the film (since they were so convinced that they were gonna make the best one in the franchise) adds to the "so bad it's good" feel that this movie is full of, and the fact that ONLY 5 - 10 minutes of it takes place in New York. I like how it never takes itself too seriously.
@@leeccdoo- They didn't cross the entire Atlantic ocean to New York since they were already in New Jersey. If anything, they could have taken a bus or a van to drive to New York instead of a cruise ship.
I love this soundtrack from the movie, if I was living in New York especially the Manhattan nightlife I would play this song while I’m driving around late night the perfect vibe!
I remember seeing this movie in the theater and hearing this song like it was yesterday. It was a rainy day at the beach and me and a buddy decided to go see it. Being a teenager in the ‘80s was fun.
I’m old enough to have edited a music video of this song by connecting my VCR to my VHS camcorder and playing the movie while recording and pausing the blank tape.
Jason’s looking kinda ruff ain’t he?! Lol like he needs a cigarette/break .. I guess if a half of a house fell on me in the last movie I’d look that way too 😂 cool song tho 80s🤘
When I was younger and a new horror fan, I strived to see all the Ft13 movies. I bough dvd after dvd, combo dvd after dvd, to find Jason takes Manhattan. It was the one movie I couldn’t find in physical media. But years later as an adult I got it on vhs. The MOMENT the opening credits were rolling and this song came on; I was so captivated. The movie itself is kind of a stinker but this song ROCKS.
@@FarmersAreDummies One simply cannot part with a dear old friend too easily. 😉 My first ancient VCR is in a closet. It has a "fancy" remote. On a long, long wire.
Dear Mr. Vernon, we accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it was we did wrong. But we think you’re crazy for making us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us… In the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is a brain, and an athlete, and a basket case, a princess, and a criminal… Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, the Breakfast Club. Wait wrong movie
I got to admit, I really enjoyed this one. I will always defend part VIII, despite what the haters say. I would watch this over any of today's bloated 3-hour superhero yawnfests.
@@SamA-cv2ur - I’m a minority in this opinion but I actually like this version of Jason’s face. It’s weirdly jack-o-lantern-like and he’s just so rotted and far gone that he’s not even scary in lieu of the mask anymore - just oddly pathetic. It’s fitting ‘cos he’s in the city that will ultimately be his final demise. It’s over for him.
@@FarmersAreDummies haha...43 years born and raised, 1st gen legal immigrants...trust me...lots of cousin fucking/marriages happening from lots of new arrivals...stuck here for now, looking for greener pastures down there someday. And the cesspool of crime, told all new New Yorkers it was coming back like when I was a kid. Crime is almost pretty much legal over here...you're out in 24 hours for most felonies nowadays. You have your Constitutional right to protect yourself down there, value it. Again, not like this Authoritarian Rich commie-elitist enclave.
This song holds a very special place in my heart, not just because it is from my favorite Friday The 13th movie but because it is truly the embodiment of what 1980's New York City the place was everything from highest towers heaven to the deepest darkest pits of hell and it was an awesome city because of it. I remember it being exciting and foreboding at the same time. Kinda like how Las Vegas in the 1970's before all you can eat buffet and family vacation packages was a den of absolute luxury for the big time winners and a shallow desert grave for the big time losers. Im not praising these places for the darkness but simply acknowledging the lure of it. Ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight? oh indeed, I did, and I'll never forget it.

If this Younger generation ever asked what 80's music sounds like, just play this.
AMAZING pure 80's song!!! A Nostalgic sadness to it as if saying goodbye to that era
I miss that era greatly.
Wow, beautifully articulated
@@FarmersAreDummies I'll always be jealous that I didn't get to experience it
It was special. I remember being so excited seeing the TV spots for this when it came out.

One of the best theme songs for any film, ever.

This Raw Ass Song !!
I definitely think so.
@@creepah1118 Well, you just don't have taste in music so of course you would say that.
Jason looks really nice on this picture. Never seen him look that lovely. Don’t know why he feels he has to hide his face with a mask all the time x
It's like this... we live in claustrophobia, the land of steel and concrete. Trapped by dark waters, there is no escape, nor do we want it. We've come to thrive on it and each other. You can't get the adrenaline pumping without the terror, good people, and I love this town...
Such a great song from such a Bad ass Era.. God I wish I could travel back to the 80's and visit for a bit 😂
Let's go!
I’ll travel back with you
Yo me too man, my dad was so lucky, he was born in 1982, and had a fun childhood, now he's 42 as his birthday was 3 days ago. He loved the Friday The 13th Franchise too!!!

Lots of serial killers that year.
Fantastic song from an okay movie in the Friday franchise! Also, Rest In Peace to Peter Mark Richman, who played Charles McCulloch, as he passed away two days ago.

It's just has that classic 80's nostalgia sound that's really cool 😎
This movie is 35 years old and everytime i hear this song its like a death cry of the 80s. Beautiful
Despite what others say, this is my FAVORITE of the series!
Wasted potential, but still a fun time

This song really does take you right back to the year 1989.
This was one of the first Friday movies I saw and it has a soft spot with me.
This theme just draws you in
RIP Julius
Guess you could say he needed to get aHEAD on his boxing skills before trying to tackle someone the likes of Mr Voorhees
I can't get over the unmasked Jason just posing like an album cover to this epic tune. Well done sir, I am appreciating all you've done for the rare horror tunes we all love. They really do sound better than other versions availaible.
This was one of my favorites out of the whole series. I love this song too btw!
Definitely one of the strangest installments of the series but it’s one I still love

I did the same thing in San Francisco, only I hummed this tune walking on the streets. Killer tune.
This song is 🔥🔥 it’s annoying I can’t find it on Apple Music!
That’s because it’s not on it lol
and i thought I've heard it all, how could this Classic ever pass under the radar.
What a song! I still play it today. It's in my best of the 80's compilation. Excellent remaster with lots of bass. Thanks.🤗🤗🤗
Thanks for listening
I love JTM for the characters and setting more than anything else. "Who the f*ck are you?" 😂 The 80's rock big time.

8 is my favorite Jason movie. I think he looks the coolest, best characters, most fun kills, and I live in VAN!
School is OUT, McCollough
Jason is just looking at the NYC skyline and listening to this, thinking about some stuff.
He's seen some shit, man.
@@BrandonTobatto They always ask who Jason is, but never how Jason is.
Jason on break from his 16 hour shift. He’s a tough guy.

good song for tonight

I love this music track so much it's 1 of my favorites theme songs of all time hands down 1 of the best then the film itself.

Part 8 is Pretty Underrated,But it’s one of my Favourite From Franchise
