is Friday the 13th part 2 good?

[unknownfreak31]

I can't find this movie to rent anywhere!

Is it worth buyingon dvd?
does it have good gore?
does it have any nudity?
is is better than the first?
Thanks

[Lindsey]

I think Friday the 13th part 2 is good.Yes it's worth buying on DVD,it has good gore,I'm pretty sure there's full frontal nudity (I think so,it was either the 2nd or 3rd Friday) I think the first is better,but it's worth renting or buying it on DVD.Enjoy.

[MICHAELvoorhees]

Yes, the second one has nudity. But just one girl is shown nude, but you get to see it all!!

[SUPER LOVER MAN]

good nudity, good gore, ALMOST better than the first, good movie.

[Elgyn]

Yeah, Part 2 is one of the "Friday"s I like the most.

[leatherface]

i didnt think this film was that great. seeing jason wearing a pillow case is a bit dumb. though as long as u get to see tits, ass, fadge, it cant be that bad

[Tyler Dyrden]

yes, its a very good movie, and it does have nudity, i think a part with a girl coming out of the lake and they show all top to bottom but you can barly see it. http://www.joblo.com/ubb/frown.gif

[gayhorrorgeek]

Definitely one of the better F13 sequels. 1,2,4, and 5 (underrated) were the best. 3,6,7,8 are the worst. 9 lies somewhere in the middle--10 remains to be seen.

[Horror whore]

Yes this isn't a good movie at all!!

[The Undertaker]

Friday the 13th Part 2 is a great movie....if you love old school slasher movies. It's a typical slasher in many ways, but manages to be creepy, funny, and suspenseful. Oh yeah and this is the first movie where Jason starts hacking people to bits. Good fun.

F13 Part 2:**** out of *****

[Spike]

i like the second one a lot, probably the best "pre-6" sequel in the series.

[Antonio]

FRIDAY THE 13TH: PART 2 (1981) Directed by Steve Miner. This film was necessary as far as sequels go, since the presumed dead Jason didn't appear in the first "Friday" until the final scene. The word "necessary" is not equivalent to a good story in this case. The original "Friday", like most in any film series is far superior. Part 2 does include a couple of positive points: the pre-credits cameo by Part 1 survivor Adrienne King, and this film's heroine Amy Steel (as Ginny, perhaps the toughest and most popular leading lady in the "Friday" series). The film's final act, an ongoing battle between Jason and Ms. Steel...is a tour-de-force, and almost makes up for the rest of the film! The rest of the cast is pretty awful, as is the writing, although the production values contain more gloss than grit (the original "Friday" featured a more "grainy" look). One major loose end that wasn't even tied up in Part 3...what happened to Ginny's boyfriend Paul (John Furey) after Jason jumped through the window in the finale and attacked Ginny? My grade:C (points earned only by King and Steel as the tag-team heroines).

[psycho path]

Its one of my favs. Really good to watch on halloween night!

[cereal killer]

Friday the 13th part 2 was a good sequel to the first and it does of some nudity and gore I believe it's worth buying if you like the series.

[Cannon Fodder]

Its pretty typical of the series, better than a number of the entries from what I can remember, which is to say still piss poor. Though that didn't stop me watching the whole damn lot of them.

[Bry Bry]

i think part 2 is a very good sequel///

i like JASON in a pillowcase...it is very eeire looking, seeing a dude in a pillowcase chasing after a chick..

[Cyclonus]

It was kinda strange seeing Jason like that, I guess we're all more used to that hockey mask!

[Raw Chili]

jason looks kinda strange with the pillow case, but good gore, good nudity, good flick.

[ParileseMonster]

It is a good movie, and no it is not worth it getting it on DVD. Why? Because of some asshole named Martin Blythe. Who's He? He is the bastard with the power to either give Paramount movies such as Friday The 13th film extras and he has choosen not to. The reason he gives? " There is not enough of a demand for extras to be given to the Friday DVD's" and I beg to say Bullshit!!! http://www.joblo.com/ubb/tongue.gif Paramount likes to treat their Horror children like red headed bastard step children. I will not ever buy any of the Friday the 13th movies on DVD without extras. I will not waste my money on barebones when I know more is out there and I demand it by God and if you do as well, here is what you do...

Write to this Jerk to Complain/demand extras

Some of you have seen this rant before and all I can say is I am on a crusade for the better and that is all there is to it! http://www.joblo.com/ubb/smile.gif

[Cyclonus]

Is it true that they regret ever making them in the first place?

[ParileseMonster]

Yep you got it bud, Paramount practically regrets any horror movie they help bring out but holy hell man I hear noone complaining about the money it brought in and It did bring in quite a pretty penny and you know this because of the horror crowd following that is associated with the Friday Movies. I know some of us do not care for extras and buy the movie anyway but there are those of us that want extras and I for one am not buying any Friday the 13th dvd without extras because there will be extras for these films one day and I will help get them along with the many others I know that exist in this world!!!! http://www.joblo.com/ubb/smile.gif

[Jason Vorhees]

as the society came this low when we care more about nudity and extras then the movie it's self? i mean u want nudity.. buy a porn.. you want extras... buy the forrest gump movie.. there is a shitload of extras.. i mean a whole disk dedicated to extras... but yes 2 is definitley worth buying on dvd.. or even vhs if u have no dvd player

[Cenobite]

Part 2 is definitely a worthy sequel (although that pillow case thing was already done in The Town that Dreaded Sundown). Still, it's quite atmospheric and creepy. As is Part 3.

[ParileseMonster]

You missed the whole damn point Jason and that is so sad!!! http://www.joblo.com/ubb/frown.gif This is not about nudity and the nudity in most horror is not anywhere near being close to porn!! The movie itself is GREAT, but this movie to me is a legacy and Im sure there are interviews, commentaries, bloopers, stills whatever the hell you name it that would make the DVD more treasured by it's fans! OH and I want to see them the way they were intended to be seen and that is UNCUT!!! And most of these movies were cut right the hell up. It is fine if you are satisfied with just a bare bones DVD but do not Put down the rest of us who want a little more, I just can not believe you would pick on such a thing and act as if it is something petty or the people who want it are petty! Have some damn respect!!!

[Jason Vorhees]

ok check this out.. nightmare on elm street 4... i own it on dvd along with bride of chucky the only two horror movies i own... and all they have is the trailer and some gay ass shit on bride of chucky like cast and crew shit whatever. i don't care about it.. what i am saying is that all i want is the movie. don't care if there is nudity or extras... i have it on vhs... and that sucks cuz u have to rewind it.. but it is a great thing to have...... extras and nudity don't really matter.. as i said turn on a porn for nudity.... unless the girl is getting slashed to death i don't really care.. cuz i can see nudity anytime.. just zip down her pants and look

[Jason Voorhees]

Pretty great flick, I like it a lot http://www.joblo.com/ubb/smile.gif

[Wwl66]

Why don't you just get it on VHS and record it.It's cheap and if you don't like it you can always copy over it.

[ParileseMonster]

I hope one day they all come out with extras and uncut and some of you would argue about the importance of extras or why you could care less about them so let me give you a thought to chew on. Part 3 was relesed in
3-D and I was lucky enough to go see it in the theatres. http://www.joblo.com/ubb/smile.gif This movie was done well in 3-D and the 3-D effects are also very well done. So this is the present and there is a Friday The 13th DVD part 3 out now, that is not in 3-D format ( yes it can be done! ) it has no extras and it is cut ( cut as in gore Jason not nudity for crying out loud!)
( I have uncut vhs version)and features a groovy ( http://www.joblo.com/ubb/tongue.gif ) trailer. Now is anyone going to tell me that they would not like to have part 3 uncut and that also features a regular/3-D format? Including say a cool two pairs of 3-D glasses and please noone give me the shit about those being dorky give me a break! http://www.joblo.com/ubb/tongue.gif
I for one would love a DVD of 3 that features the movie how it was intended to be seen!!!

[MikeyB]

Damn, no one can argue with that! http://www.joblo.com/ubb/tongue.gif

[Elgyn]

P. Monster - I agree with you completely! Not just about Part 3, but all of them! The only reason they don`t include extra stuff (or even release them uncut) is becasue they`re just too lazy.

[Jason Voorhees]

Parilese You rule and you are exactly right. We as the Friday fans deserve a little fucking respect for putting our money in Paramounts wallet, And they have the gall to disrespect us all by releasing these bare bones. horrible, bullshit dvds. Fuck them. F13th fans are a huge cult, Probably near the size of the Evil Dead cult and the Evil Dead DVDS rule and I bet they make good money.

[McBren]

Well Alot of People Stay It's The Worst Film In the Series. But It's Way Lot Better Then That Crappy Fifth Sequel.

[teenkiller]

I love this film and think its even better than the original. Jason's face sack is awesome. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[Cyclonus]

I'm sorry, but to me it's just an average horror sequel. I was worried that I'd end up hating all of them, especially after watching the dreadful Part 4, but to my relief I actually enjoyed Parts 6 and 7.

You can read my review for part 2 HERE (http://www.joblo.com/ubb/Forum13/HTML/001454.html)

Part 7 (http://www.joblo.com/ubb/Forum13/HTML/001453.html)

Part 6 (http://www.joblo.com/ubb/Forum13/HTML/001442.html)

Part 4 (http://www.joblo.com/ubb/Forum13/HTML/001449.html)

[Drago Floyd]

It's easily the worst of the F13s (of the ones I've seen atleast), a guy wearing a bag on his head is NOT scary.

[Cyclonus]

I know! You have to keep reminding yourself that it's indeed Jason and not some generic killer!

[Sheepshaver127]

I watched this a few years ago not expecting much and I was surprised. I would recommend it I think they caught a decent atmospheric look and there was some good chase scenes. As far as gore from what I can remember there is a decent amount. And one thing I remember for sure is that naked chick coming out of the lake. All in all I thought it was slightly above average.

[teenkiller]

I really liked Gillete's approach to playing JASON in this film. You can definitley tell that JASON used to be human. At one point in the film he even cowers away. I LOVE THAT! Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[stevereno]

i didn't like the whole pillow case thing but it was scary and i loved the handicap guys death

LAUGH!

SHIVER ME TIMBERS

[Cyclonus]

~Teenkiller~ That's not a bad point, perhaps they could have looked at this angle a bit more?

~stevereno~ Yep, that was one of the highlights of the movie! http://www.joblo.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

[teenkiller]

Bringing back Crazy Ralph was also a smart move. I LOVE the sack in this movie. JASON really looks sick when they get a close up of his face and you can only see one eye wiggling around. The fact that he didn't bother cutting out a second eye hole is very disturbing. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[stevereno]

you know what i love about this movie.......... the unessasary skinny dip scene.

there was no need for her to do that but then she does it anyway

SHIVER ME TIMBERS

[bulletproof]

Its a worthy follow-up to the 1st one and has some likeable Characters.

It has damm fine full frontial nudity,Its creepy and scary as all hell;The lead female actress is better than average,and it has this tone where you know all through the movie that some very bad shit is gonna happen.
There are also 2 scenes that stick with me everytime i see this movie:The lightning flashes all over the place,and Jason crashing thru the window still scares the
shit out of me today.

One Question: What the hell happend to paul?
At the end of the movie Ginny is hauled onto the Ambulence,but he is nohwere to be seen?

[Elgyn]

Bulletproof

The actor who played Paul quit, so he just dissapears!
---------------------------------------
And for the record, The Time sucked.

[ominous_oat]

You know what? I think I'll actually be able to sleep better at night knowing that now (I'm dead serious). Geez they could've at least had the police say they found him dead or something, sheesh, slackers.

[teenkiller]

I love the scenes with JASON'S house. It makes me think that the guy actually used to have some sort of actual life. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[Michael_myers]

next to kane Hodder, Warrington Gillette is the best Jason. One question, not seeing this film in a while has impaired my memory, does Amy Steel go topless/nude in this movie?

[Romero&Juliet]

Even after Seeing this a million times it still scares the hell outta me..
The last fifteen minutes is quite the rush..

[teenkiller]

She takes her shirt off and gives us a bra shot. Thats it. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[Romero&Juliet]

Elgyn. I've never noticed anything about the Prowler in Friday part 2 credits.
That's very odd indeed.

I wonder who it is?

[Elgyn]

Yeah, I see my topic about "The Prowler" was closed (guess I should`ve known)!

Anyways, for those who didn`t see the post, I noticed the other night that in the end credits of "Friday Part 2", there is a character listed called "The Prowler".
Who the hell is he?
It`s not another name for Jason, cause Jason is listed too, played by Warrington Gillete.
Then I thought, maybe it`s another name for Crazy Ralph...but nope, Ralph is listed as well (played by Walt Gorney).

So......who the hell is The Prowler in "Friday II"? Anyone know anything about this??

-------------------------------------------
And for the record, The Time sucked.

[Bloodybitch13]

Jason's shadow?

I got the answer to your question... I'm gonna wait a little while and have you guys in suspense before I post it though. MU HA HA HA ! Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[Romero&Juliet]

AHHHHHHH!!!!!

YOU CANT DO THAT, TEENKILLER!!

the rest of you: If you'll excuse me for just a moment. I have a schmoe to kill.

Now.....Where's my gun?!

[teenkiller]

Okay heres the answer. The prowler is the guy at the very beginning at the movie who was walking around in the rain. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[Romero&Juliet]

OHHHHHHH!!!!!

THANKS TEENKILLER!
You are a super-Schmoe indeed!

PS. You almost got your head blown off too. LOL

Just doin my job. Besides your puny weapons are no match for my super strength. Glad to be of help. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[stevereno]

teenkiller got you there romero

SHIVER ME TIMBERS

[Elgyn]

But I thought the guy walking around in the rain was JASON!

--------------------------------------------
And for the record, The Time sucked.

[Elgyn]

BUMP

really, I always thought the guy walking in the rain was Jason!

[ominous_oat]

So did I...now what relevence did he have to the story?

[thingsgoinon]

The first two in the series are the ONLY good one in my mind....and I STILL wanna know what happened to Paul (or is it Steve)??

[teenkiller]

Well actor John Furey had some sort of quarrel and left the set during the last day of shooting. I'm certain that JASON killed Paul though. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[Elgyn]

So.....who was "The Prowler"?

[teenkiller]

The prowler is actually the guy at the beginning of the movie walking in the rain. I'm sure it was intended to be JASON but for some reason he wasn't played by Warrington Gillette. I don't really know why but since he wasn't that had to list him in the credits as the prowler. Hope that helps. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[Elgyn]

Huh. That`s really weird. Oh well, I guess that`s that. Thanks teenkiller!

[Adam Bateman10]

I don't know if anyone has seen this movie, but didn't Jason look an awful lot like the killer dude in "The Town That Dreaded Sundown"?? I don't know if anyone has mentioned this but I thought he did. I wonder if it was a big coincidence? http://www.joblo.com/ubb/confused.gif

[Requiem-for-a-Dream]

ParileseMonster, I'm with you all the way on this one. I'm a Friday the 13th fan and I'm really fucking pissed off at the Friday DVDs not being uncut. I don't even need the extras, as long as the films are UNCUT, the way the director wanted them to be seen. The MPAA certainly gave this series hell, if these flicks were submitted now, a lot less would have been trimmed. For example, in Friday V, the decapitation was cut, why would that be? We see onscreen decaps all the time! Since when is a decap innapropriate for adults?

Anyways, this is a great horror flick, some good gore (nice slit throat, machete in the face, etc.) and a very nice nude scene. Also, not very much was cut from this film, so if you want the DVD, I say go for it but stay away from some of the later flicks because they were hacked to shit by the MPAA.
