31 DAYS OF DREW 2 - DAY 13: JASON X

Every horrorhound's favorite month is upon us, and to celebrate, I'll be dishing out film recommendations for every day in October. I hope you enjoy the month with some good movies, even if they aren't ones I recommend!

Today's Pick: Jason X (2001)

Last year, I chose Jason Lives: Friday the 13th Part VI for the thirteenth recommendation of the month. I made the case that it was the best entry in the franchise, and while I stand by that declaration, I also recognize that such a claim is not a minority opinion. The F13 fanbase is pretty unanimous in their adoration for that entry. So this year, I figured I'd do my best to ruffle some feathers by proclaiming Jason X as the second most enjoyable film in Mr. Voorhees' repertoire. I joyfully await your vehement disagreement in the comments section!

31 DAYS OF DREW - DAY 13: JASON LIVES: FRIDAY THE 13TH PART VI

Every horrorhound's favorite month is upon us, and to celebrate, I'll be dishing out a personal pick from the genre for every day in October. Some will be obvious and rather unoriginal (sorry that I like movies other people like), while some will be a little more oddball and off-the-wall. Some may even challenge your idea of what constitutes a "horror" movie. Regardless, I hope you enjoy the month with some good movies, even if they aren't ones I recommend!

Today's Pick: Jason Lives: Friday the 13th Part VI (1986)

Even though it's not a Friday, I felt compelled to dedicate the 13th day of 31 Days of Drew to the man who made hockey masks synonymous with slaughtered teenagers: Jason Voorhees. For a while, I debated using this space to make my argument for Friday the 13 Part V: A New Beginning (ignore the fake Jason aspect and it's a great sequel and a good entry in the franchise!), but then I realized that if you're going to watch only one Jason movie this month, Part VI is the only contender.
