![]() Jason already proving himself the Bobby Fischer of slasher movies. This might have lost out to the guy who got killed while trying to take a shit – because we're already at that point of stretching the term "iconic" out – if not for Jason somehow then shoving Andy's spatchcocked body into the rafters in order to freak his pregnant girlfriend out right before stabbing her through a hammock. But we did get a post-coital Andy walking around on his hands, and then taking a machete to the groin and getting his lower bits lopped in half. The death of a series wackadoo, along with the immediate embrace of supernatural weirdness, makes Crazy Ralph the top pick for Friday the 13th Part 2.Īt just the third film in the franchise, Friday the 13th joined the 3-D bandwagon, giving a loosely plotted film the advantage of such unforgettable shots as "having a pitchfork handle's end come at your face slowly" and "having an eyeball pop out in your general direction for half a second." (That second one is legitimately awesome, for the record.) Jason also got his signature hockey mask in Friday the 13th Part III (which arbitrarily jumped to Roman numerals for some of the rest of the sequels).Īs far as iconic deaths go, Friday the 13th Part III wasn't exactly an embarrassment of riches. Ralph is voyeuristically perving while standing against a tree (not the impossible part), and Jason pulls wire across Ralph's throat, even though there's no feasible way Jason could have maneuvered that while standing behind the tree. The second death was not only another reprisal, that of Walt Gorney's Crazy Ralph, but it was also more chilling, and also logistically IMPOSSIBLE even by Friday the 13th's wacky logic. Some might say that Adrienne King's Alice gets the most iconic death, since she was the first film's Final Girl Alice, but Jason's big revenge was a rather bland icepick to the head. That was about all it did, story-wise, with the sequel mostly retreading Camp Crystal Lake visitors getting picked off one by one or by two, in Jef and Sandra's case, which was all sexy until it suddenly wasn't at all. The film later received theatrical distribution exclusively in the UAE in 2009.Directed by future horror mainstay Steve Miner, Friday the 13th Part 2 marks the true introduction of Jason Voorhees as the central killer of the franchise, with his dearly missed mommy getting killed off at the end of the previous movie. Chris Thomas King as Detective Storm Anderson.Holly Dignard as FBI Agent Frankie Miller.The final scene shows King returning to what appears to be his Russian wife and family. King then chooses to exit the scene, leaving Anderson a note explaining he is quitting because no one likes his style of justice. He then goes after Billy Joe Hill and kills him after finding Celine dead. Meanwhile, King locates Lazerus and fights him, using a ball-peen hammer to break every bone in his body. Lazerus attempts to frame King for the murder of a blonde barmaid, and Miller believes the frame and begins to pursue King. King meets FBI agent Frankie Miller ( Holly Dignard) but dislikes her because she does not approve of his methods. King goes on a brutal rampage through the Memphis underworld with the assistance of his partner, Detective Storm Anderson ( Chris Thomas King) and the coroner ( Isaac Hayes). King finds him and kicks him out a window repeatedly, after which Hill seeks revenge by murdering Celine (Karyn Michelle Baltzer), whom he believes to be King's girlfriend. At the same time, another murderer, Billy Joe Hill ( Mark Collie), is killing women. The murderer, Lazerus, leaves cryptic, astrological clues at the crime scenes. Seemingly indifferent to the fact his twin brother was murdered in front of him as a child, King investigates a series of brutal killings, most involving young, attractive women. Jacob King is a police officer in Memphis, Tennessee, whose brutal methods have gained him a legendary reputation among his colleagues. ![]() ![]() The film is also notable for featuring one of the last roles of Isaac Hayes.
