Wow, check out all those Friday the 13ths on this chunk o' list! Why, you know would go great with all these Friday mentions? A copy of my new book, Death Count! Just think, you two people who listed Part III (only two? for shame!) could bond over the movie and all my illustrations of the deaths therein. Even more importantly, you could bond over how great Chris Higgins is! Because she's so great! I am just saying. Death Count. Yeah.
I mean heck, if I can't pimp the book here, then where can I pimp it? And look! Amazon finally got the 'look inside' feature running so now you can–yes–look inside. Woo hoo! Chris Higgins!

I love Part VII. It was the first one I saw. I believe it has the grossest looking Jason as well.
F13 Pt III has a special place inmy heart. Firstly, that movie scared the shit out of me as a kid. I also had the novelisation that I carried with me everywhere and would savour the black and white stills in the middle of it.
But especially because when I was in third grade my teacher set us up a creative writing assignment. So being a dumb kid I just wrote out my own adaptation of this movie, which I was kind of onbsessed with. And, of course, being a kid the thing you remember more than anything is the kills. So it was just pretty much all the kills as reinterpereted by a nine year old.
My teacher (who was a complete psycho, by the way) completely flipped out when she read it, tore me to shreds in class saying it was "disgusting filth" and actually called my parents up and demanded to see them.
They're response was "He likes watching horror movies and writing stories. No biggie..."
If I did that as a kid today they'd call in the Feds and charge me with terrorism and sex crimes.
Yes, someone else is down with From Dusk Till Dawn. That just made my day.
If I had unlimited funds and unlimited Forbidden Science expertise, I would resurrect all the great horror actors of the middle of the 20th century and take them on a Horror Express train ride on the Transiberian Railway, in the middle of winter, just as the Tunguska Comet is barreling overheard. AND THERE WOULD BE KITTENS FOR EVERYONE.
