That is what elevates the scene from horror movie kill to just being kinda ****ing wrong.

There's a reason why it's a classic while I don't think Jason ever had a true classic. I don't think there's many Friday films I actually enjoy outside of Jason Takes Manhattan for the silliness of it. I liked the first and third Freddy films and I think New Nightmare was a pretty cool take too but the rest were mostly trash. I liked Freddy Vs Jason contrary to how hated that movie seems to be. Candyman is may all time favorite though. There's just a rawness to it that you don't really get from most slasher films which end up becoming really cartoon with their kills.
