Here’s Every Time Friday the 13th Made You Think a Scare Was Going to Be Jason
The Friday the 13th franchise is littered throughout with jump scares, the maligned yet often under-appreciated horror tactic. I’m not the biggest fan of that method but it definitely has its place in our genre. Hell, some of the best and/or most iconic scares in horror are jump scares. Just look at The Exorcist III and this prime example! It’s a stunning showcase of how time builds tension and even though our nerves are on razor edge we can still be shocked once the actual event takes place.
Okay, so I went on a tangent. Forgive me. YouTuber WatsonTheScot has compiled scenes from every Friday the 13th movie except for the first one where some kind of jump scare occurred in place of it actually being Jason. It’s interesting to watch 20 minutes of Friday the 13th footage without seeing Jason but I’m kinda into it. It’s like watching something from a completely different perspective to see it for the first time.
As you watch the below video, why not tell me in the comments what your favorite jump scare in horror is!
