An embarrassing mistake, a heart-felt apology
On the new episode of JFD that will be coming out this week, I make a reference to liking "Hellraiser III" because there's a scene where Pinhead busts into a night club and takes the entire place out with a flurry of chains and metal and hooks and stuff. I go on to say that this pleased me as a youngster because it was unique to horror/the slasher genre and because 'Freddy never killed a whole bunch of people at once.' This is a terrible mistake on my part. I probably meant to say "Jason never killed a bunch of people at once" because, as we all know Freddy did kill a bunch of people in a flurry of fire and razor claws and puns. In "Nightmare on Elm Street 2," Freddy takes out a whole Pool Party.
I apologize for this momentary lapse in judgement and I never meant to sully Freddy's good name as a total badass who has no qualms about killing everyone at a pool party or a night club.

Dude Jason kills a ton of people at the rave in Freddy Vs Jason, so you don't know what you're talking about. You must have meant to say Forest Gump.
ReplyDeleteBut Jason hadn't killed a whole ton of people when I was a little kid at the time Hellraiser III came out. I was talking about a pre-Hellraiser III world. What was I supposed to say when I saw Hellraiser III? "Oh Man! Pinhead killed a bunch of people at a party! Just like Jason did in a movie that will come out 10 years from now!"
ReplyDeleteAlso, Forest Gump was in the Vietnam War, so he probably killed a lot of people. I'm thinking perhaps you don't know what YOU'RE talking about.
