#43 FRIDAY THE 13th (1980)
JASON POPS OUT
OF THE WATER

Ah, the
one that started it all. Here we get to learn how the unstoppable
killing machine named Jason Voorhees got his start. Many people
don't know that Jason didn't get his hockey mask until the 3rd
installment of the long series, and that it was his vengeful mother
that did all the killing in the first film. Of course, just when
everything is all calm and seemingly resolved at the end of Episode
One, the hideous rotten and decomposed body of Jason pops out of the
water, scaring the hell out of everyone.
