About this movie

30 years ago, a small horror film gave birth to 12 sequels, an endless body count and one of the most terrifying icons in horror history. Gore FX legend Tom Savini is your host for the ultimate documentary on everybody's favorite hockey-masked momma's boy and his three decades of cinematic carnage, featuring classic clips from every Friday the 13th movie, rare behind-the-scenes footage, and over 80 interviews with filmmakers, actors, stuntmen, FX artists, journalists and fans including Sean Cunningham, Kane Hodder, Seth Green, Harry Manfredini, Betsy Palmer, Greg Nicotero, and many more. His Name Was Jason...and this is his incredible legacy!

Good movies. Every last one of 'em. I like part 1 and jason goes to hell the best. I like the end credits in part one. I think i was part six or seven, where he was in the lake waiting for jason and the girl yells and jason turns round and stares then turns back round and preceded to go to him and then just dissappears under water.
