62: Friday the 13th Part 3 (Bonus)

12/13/24 • 108 min

As another Friday the 13th dawns we bring you another bonus episode looking at our personal favorite slasher franchise. This time around Jason Voorhees stalks some kids who just happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time as he seeks to convalesce after getting hacked in the shoulder with Ginny's machete. We'll tell you all about why, of all the movies Paramount could have chosen to revive the 3D craze, they chose an r-rated body count movie like this one. We'll wax romantic about Richard Brooker's performance as Jason. We'll be blown away by the production's choice to have their final girl fight back against the killer tooth and nail. We'll get downright pedantic about the origin of the hockey mask. All this and more as our tradition of covering Friday the 13th on Friday the 13th continues!

This week we take a trip back to October 8, 1993, for a look at the fifth episode of the first season of The X-Files as Mulder takes it to the streets of Atlantic City in search of a murderer who might be the legendary cryptic of New Jersey but is actually a family of feral humans living in the wilds of the Jersey Pine Barrens, bumping up against the edge of civilized society. We have lousy witness sketches of the killer, Scully's magnificent fashion sense and social life, and a rundown of what was happening in America in October of 1993.

This week, Bryan and Dave take a trip back to 1984 for a look at one of the top box office draws of 1984 and one of the most toyetic pictures of the decade, Gremlins. It's one of Chris Columbus's first movies produced and Joe Dante's first feature with Steven Spielberg. It's got adorable little cuddly guys, nasty little monsters, Phoebe Cates, gleeful puppet carnage, and a powerhouse score from Hollywood's musical swiss army knife, Jerry Goldsmith. In a year packed with some of American pop cultures most enduring classic titles, Gremlins is among the most iconic of the decade.

It's not all fuzzy feelings, though. As much as it's a lot of Loony Tunes fun and mayhem it's a movie that hasn't exactly aged well and we'll tell you all about it; the good and the bad.
