  Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter 1984

  ★★★½ Watched 21 May 2023 45

  I really want Jason to kill me. Honestly, there are plenty of other serial slashers I would employ to do the job. But Voorhees is here and in my playlist for the last 4 films, so he's my choice because I just want it done now.

  Friday the 13th Part III 1982

  ★★★★ Watched 16 May 2023 16

  Lately, my habit has consisted of repeatedly subjecting myself to torment by viewing depressive horror films. I have been continually trying to persuade myself that I'll return to the lighter, campier vibes, but it just never happened. After watching Jordan Peele's Us last night and beginning to jot down the outlines of my review (yeah, it went that deep for me), I realized what a massive undertaking it would be. A mere review would lead to me reviewing Heritage, and…
