First we have episode six in the Friday the 13th franchise: Jason Lives! This is the film where Jason is ressurrected from beyond the grave as an unstoppable supernatural entity. It’s a very 80s movie – a horror romp in which lots of teenagers die, accompanied by a heavy rock soundtrack featuring Alice Cooper. \m/,

Behind The Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon is up second. It’s a self aware genre-bending slasher movie presented as a documentary. We follow the lead character, Leslie Vernon, as he trains to become the archetypal Slasher seeking vengeance for wrongs he feels were done to him in his childhood. This really is a movie full of great ideas. It understands all of the tropes that make a slasher film work so well and puts them into a narrative for us to appreciate – and also reflect on every slasher movie that has come before.
