if you're a horror fan you owe it to yourself to discover the original 'Sleepaway Camp.' It'll blow you away----a lot of fun. I was pretty floored first time I saw it.

Whats funny about Sleepaway Camp is I've never seen it, but I distinctly remember being creeped out by the back of the box when I was 9 or 10. Instead of a normal plot synopsis, it has someone from the camp writing a letter to his parents to get him out because of some murders, and then he writes "hold on, I hear someone coming up behind me..." and then the scribble and blood stains.

Its silly now of course. Like someone would write that in their letter

Friday the 13th pt 3.
The first one was boring as a freakin mom
Pt3 was the best(excluding FvJ) due to the fact he gets his mask and that one fat guy gets a pole through his eye(as I recall)

Which was the one with the dude with Hedge-Clippers??? I caught that on VHS as a kid a LONG time ago and it was in the copy of Friday the 13th but it was pretty decent on the anticipation and kill shots. (I specifically remember the dude snipping off some guys fingers in a canue as he put his hand up to protect himself) Graphic stuff back then and pretty real.

Almost correct... Part 3 had the hottest chicks of all the Friday the 13th movies imo. But Shelly (the fat kid) was the joker who was into Horror FX, and had the mask and a harpoon gun... you never see Shelly get killed, but you know he was when Jason shows up at the dock in his gear and the girl is in the water to retrieve his wallet that fell into the lake... Jason lifts the harpoon gun and shoots her from 20 yards out right through the eye.

Shelly (who cried wolf earlier as a Horror-victim) falls out of a closet with either an axe to the head (as he did earlier) or a slashed throat and the Heroine ignores him until she realizes he's really dead.. and that starts the RUN of discovering all the bodies Jason took care of already.

thank you for the in depth correction. But I did pretty good for someone who has only seen every one once.

Well you got the "Fat Kid" and the "eye-shot" right... I probably woulda remembered the Bikers, and the kid that always walked on his hands that Jason Hacks into 2 at the crotch.. the Babe showerscene... The stoners.. and the Heroines boyfriend who gets his head crushed and his eyeball pops out at you (remember this was 3D)

Yeah, 3 did have the hottest chicks (for being 80's "wholesome" chicks), but wasn't there a hottie in part 2? I just remember her being REALLY tanned.



Oh well, part 3 was cool, and actually scared the shit out of me as a child.


Spoiler Below
The (in the end) hallucinations of Jason charging at the girl without his mask, and Jason's mom coming up from the water, etc...



I do know Tracy Savage became a highly respected news reporter here in L.A. during the 90's--she's the one in the blue bikini,
Spoiler Below
gets killed on the hammock while reading a book.
if memory serves.

I do know Amy Steel was the main Heroine in Part 2... not sure how the other girls looked. Most of these movies has the token hot chick where nearly every dude in the audience goes "Man... what a waste" when she gets whacked. Other then the Stoner's middle-aged girlfriend, all the babes in Part 3 could of easilly been Playmates at the time.

Dana Kimmell played the main Heroine of Part 3 and imo was probably the smartest Hero that ever faced Jason... always setting a boobytrap for him instead of just running and screaming.

In Part 2, it wasn't the heroine. It was, she wore very short shorts--the dawn of the 80's shorts. She was just very olive in color. Fuck it, I'm going to google her.
