EPISODE 30 - Friday The 13th Megacast (Part 1)




Horroretc Podcast show

Summary: Well, the time has finally come - welcome to Part 1 of the Friday The 13th Megasode. It's been a long time in the making but we are delivering the long promised, oft delayed retrospective of what is arguably the most successful horror film franchise of all time. Friday the 13th and the character of Jason have become so iconic in the minds of horror fans that it may now be hard to imagine a time before the stereotype the series would eventually become. We invite you all to join us in what will be a very in-depth and exhaustive discussion about all things Friday. Part 1 of the Megasode will feature some personal memories and impact of the series on your hosts followed by a discussion of the original film, Part 2 and Part 3. This era can be argued as the most grounded in reality and witnesses the shocking twist of Part 1, the birth of a new killer in Part 2, and the gimmicky but ultimately successful definition of the Jason character in Part 3. As a special feature, we have also included a psuedo commentary track for one of the installments which we hope you enjoy as much as we enjoyed revisiting these classics. Remember as we proceed that the show benefits from having the perspectives both of long time fans Ted and Doug but also a newbie to the franchise in Anthony. Stay tuned for Part 2 of the Friday the 13th Megasode coming soon. In Schlock corner we stick to the theme of the show and enjoy a fan made skit called Horror Friends. We highly recommend following the link to watch the full 10 minute clip. Please send us your comments to: horroretc@gmail.com WWW.HORRORETC.COM
