The face of the movie franchise was the classic goalie mask worn by Jason Voorhees. Throughout the years many different actors and stunt men played Jason including Ari Lehman, Warrington Gillette, Steve Daskewisz, Richard Brooker, Ted White, Tom Morga, C. J. Graham, Kane Hodder, Ken Kirzinger and Derek Mears. As of present day there are a total of 12 films including a remake. Nothing stopped Jason from murderously hacking and slashing dozens of people in these films, and nothing stopped LJN from producing what seems to be a kids game from R rated films. Released in 1989, Friday the 13th for NES was created by Atlus and published by LJN. With the thought of being stalked by Jason while trying to save kids is already horrible, it's nothing compared to trying to maneuver using the game map. The game was padded with villains unrelated to the movies including birds, wolves and zombies. When Jason appears with machete in hand it's enough to make the player jump (if they can stand playing that long) . During this episode the Nerd is forced to play Friday the 13th by no other than Jason himself under the threat of machete and we learn the horror of Friday the 13th. Episode notes by Mike Matei: - For episode 12 the Nerd reviews Friday the 13th on NES - In this episode I played Jason Voorhees.
