So I remember thinking I had seen the first Friday the 13th but it felt like I was seeing it for the first time as I was watching. This one I was always on record as never having seen but there are a few scenes which felt oddly familiar. I wonder if a few teenage wires got crossed in my brain and I had it wrong all these years.

Anyway, now I've definitely seen them both. Cross that shit off the list. So this one... the birth of baghead Jason. It was ok. More of a straight sequel than I would've thought although I remember part 5 doing a very similar thing of showing the ending to the previous film. I'd like for me to have a ton of thoughts and notes on this now that i've finally seen all the films in the series, but really both of these films are very formulaic. As they should be... after all they are almost templates of the genre.

and thus ends day one of DVRfest. I'm going to sleep, then getting up and watching more movies!!!
