Friday the 13th Part 1 - Underworld Review

Hello and welcome to the "re-work" of DrekculasUnderworld. The use of quotations is needed because, well, I'ts still filled with my ranting and harsh criticism towards characters and the world they're in. Some additions you'll see are "Underworld Awards" and an Underworld rating to wrap things up. I never claimed to be some expert in Horror, I'm just a fan who likes to talk shit, for lack of better words. Another addition is having a Co-host joining me along this new Journey. There isn't a set host at this time, but you'll be listening to my best friend of many years, Austin. He's a lover of horror as well. He has lent his voice to my Anthology series "Tales from the Underworld" (Currently working on the next season). I'm excited to bring you something fresh, as am I. The first series I wanted to start with was an easy decision on my part. Friday the 13th has been one of my favorite slasher series of all time. The simplistic nature of a deranged mamas boy turned supernatural Zombie-ghost-thing terrorizing everyone who enters Crystal Lake. Later on, he leaves the nest to test his hacking skills in the city, and even in space! We've heard everything we need to know about this series. It's been covered on numerous occasions, and I get why. There's something charming about it, The camp setting, the locals near the lake, and the abundance of weapons he uses to dispatch his victims. Of course, we don't get that until the next films, but overall I was surprised by the first film. My rewatch created a different feeling in me. Watching on a modern tv compared to my old CRT tv created a sense of campiness that at first annoyed me, but then I fell in love with it. I went back and watched it on my Box tv for old times' sake, and realized that the tinnitus-filled machine created an eerie atmosphere that can't be recreated. At first, Austin and I were apprehensive about covering this film while recording out at his property with a fire going, but that just made this whole series feel that much better. The kills felt more personal in this film than any other in the series, and that makes this one of the most unsettling of the series as well. We were pretty crucial in the character's decisions, Too many moments in the film that made us upset. We voice that heavily in the Awards for certain characters we disliked. Some unexpected character is also chosen as Austin's favorite which is a little controversial you'll see. We hope you enjoy the re-work of it, and be sure to send me some suggestions for any on-off movies I could cover while covering this series throughout the year!
