Freddie, Jason, Myers slasher movies

Jason and Freddy are undoubtedly the two better series, Halloween is objectively shit though the Rob Zombie reboot is OK.

I like Jason part IV, but VI is the best if you just want to see Jason kill people in different ways

My personal favorite is Friday 13th, but NoES is arguably the best series. Halloween can go suck a dick.

>>86505946
>>86506005
Really? I always had the impression that Halloween was the better film. At least comparing the first entries NoES and F13 seemed flatter.

>>86505898
Nightmare is prolly the series with most quality, and even then Freddy can save any piece of shit.
Friday series is all over the place, but I honestly like every single one. I'm extremely biased because I grew up watching it. Just avoid marathoning the series because most movies are all the fucking same.
Halloween has literally only 3 good movies. I like remake part 2 tho

The first Nightmare movie was the only one out of all 3 series that was close to great

>>86505898
Nightmare and Halloween 1 are actually great movies. I can't legitimately say that about any Friday films, but I do enjoy quite a few.

>Freddy
ANoES 1 or New Nightmare
>Michael
The original Halloween. Possibly the best movie of all three characters.
>Jason
Part IV or VI, depending on how you like the comedy.

Jason takes Manhattan is amusing. Try the Friday Reboot. Jason fucking sprints after people.

I would say Halloween.
>1 is arguably one of the best of all time
>2 is good
>3 gets a bad rep just because it doesn't have MM, but its unique and I personally enjoy it
>Skip the rest

Halloween 1, NoES 1, Ft13th IV

The best stretch of films in either series is Ft13th 1-4.

Halloween 1 is really good, 3 is fun h20 and 2 are alright.. Nightmare 1 is good, 3 being really fun.even the worst nightmares have good effects and deaths. Friday was never really good but always pretty gun. 6 is actually the closest to quality.

But leprechaun 4 in Space and in the Hood are kino

>>86506893
Jason ran before he was a zombie

>>86505898
Halloween 1 is great. Friday 1 is really good. Freddy 1 is really, really good.

Sequels are a mixed bag. Halloween's continuity is all over the place. I prefer the Blackest Eyes continuity: H1,2,4,5,6 (Theatrical Cut), H20, Chaos comics 3 issues sequel to H20/H6.

Jason are less all over the place in plot, but more so in tone. Remember the James Bond Jason opening? Jason X? Jason goes to fucking weird ass hell?

Elm Street has good sequels, but they fail to be scary after the 2nd movie.

>>86506928
Halloween 4 is good. Better than 2 in my opinion.

>>86506893
Like in Part 2 and 3? Good to know.

Nigga just say you're sorry and go to your room

Personally, I think the Friday movies are the comfiest of the bunch. A lot of people don't like the first one due to the lack of Jason, but it definitely gets better.
There's only 1 movie in the whole series that I consider absolute garbage, and that's Part 9. Jason X was pretty bad as well, but still tons better than Part 9.

As for NoES and Halloween, I don't really remember except for the first movie of each series, which both were great.
I think NoES 2 and 3 were pretty solid as well, but not sure.
Just go with Jason.

>I prefer the Blackest Eyes continuity: H1,2,4,5,6 (Theatrical Cut), H20, Chaos comics 3 issues sequel to H20/H6.

I have literally no idea what any of this means.

My favorite ones in each series:

Halloween - 2, 4, Remake, Remake's sequel
Friday the 13th - 3, 5, 8
A Nightmare on Elm Street - 1, 3, New Nightmare

I think the best series overall is Halloween. My problem with Elm Street as a series is that it either didn't know what it wanted to be (2 and remake) or it was content rehashing the same ideas (4 and 5). Not only that, but even the original Elm Street is somewhat confusing. They cut out a scene that explains Freddy is targeting the kids because their parents killed him or something like that. I think he killed Nancy's sister, too. I don't remember. Fuck key plot points, I guess.

My problem with F13 is pretty much the same. It's rehash city. To Halloween's credit, it tried doing different things even if it didn't work out well (Curse of Michael Myers and Season of the Witch).

The best entry in each series is Halloween, Elm Street and Friday the 13th Part IV. The worst entries are Halloween II (2009), Freddy's Dead and Friday the 13th Part 9.

Halloween 1 is great, 2 and 4 are good.
Nightmare is meh overall, New Njghtmare is probably the best.
Friday is bad, but Jason X is fun in a retarded way.

>>86510587
The Zombie movies were genuinely good.

>actually tried to give reasoning for Michael's insanity, instead of "dude he's just evil lmao"
>Scout-Taylor Compton is objectively better than Jamie Lee Curtis
>had a better mask than most of the other movies
>Joe Grizzly, enough said
>actually showed how Michael escaped from the ward (rape scene was awful, I'm talking about the theater version of his escape)
>didn't have Michael know how to drive, which is one of the biggest plot holes of the original series

>>86505898
first 3 f13 movies are pretty good, after that don't bother they should've ended it there.

nightmare on elm street is the same film 9 times

haloween is one shitscary film and 6 films living off the same cliches.

>>86506627
Freddy as a character is such a joy to watch. He just genuinley gets a childhood joy out of killing people in the most outlandish ways and its almost infectious.

The one thing is he never really felt like a child rapist. Like they threw it in at the begining and then dropped it the whole respt of the series

>>86510853
The first three Nightmare movies are completely different.

>>86506893
Jason takes Manhattan takes 2/3 of the fucking runtime in a fucking boat.
Also why did he turn into a kid at the end?

>>86506982
>leprechaun 4 in Space

>Don't get too excited, boys. On the planet Dominia, when a woman of royal blood shows you her breasts, it's a death sentence.

Watch em all honestly but if you don't want to:
Freddy: Part III
Jason: Part 6
Myers: The first one, but since you've seen it watch Part 2

>>86510978
Rennie was just hallucinating when he turned into a kid, that didn't actually happen.

>>86511085
I'm of the belief that a first time watcher can jump into any Friday the 13th movie and not feel confused, but you should really see the first Nightmare before seeing Dream Warriors.

Halloween 3 Season of the witch is head and shoulders above all the others.

Halloween is obviously the best Halloween movie. It didn't create the slasher genre, but it sure as hell perfected it.

Wes Craven's Nightmare on Elm Street is the best film in that series, a really unique premise and groundbreaking b-movie film. There's some effects that haven't held up well and some wooden acting, but I think at the end of the day it add's to the film's strange atmosphere and gives it a dreamlike quality that I'd almost swear was intentional. That being said, Nightmare on Elm Street Part 3 is a close second and is arguably better on the merit of being such a fun ride.

Friday the 14th Part IV is the best in that series.

It was a lot more brutal than I thought it would be.

>>86505898

>Elm Street
Classic. Kinda convoluted, but a classic.
>2
It's pretty gay. Literally. Weird entry, but maybe worth checking out.
>3
This is the point where Freddy started to get kind of funny, which ruined the character for me. It's decent anyway and better than 2. Some people even prefer this over the original.
>4
The effects are goofy, which takes away from the movie. I don't know about this one. This is the point where the series really started to get cheesy.
>5
More stupid unnecessary backstory and weird fucking comedy. It's a shame that they decided to fuck around with these sequels, because Elm Street is a series that warranted sequels.
>Freddy's Dead
If only.
>New Nightmare
This is another fan-favorite of the series and reasonably so. It's the precursor to the meta stuff in Scream. I'd say that the original, 3 and New Nightmare are the only ones really worth a shit. Freddy isn't cracking jokes in this one, so that's nice.
>Remake
Borrows too much from the original.

>Halloween
It's a masterpiece, baby.
>II
It's not a masterpiece, but it's okay.
>III
People like this one, but I think it sucks. The whole stone hedge thing is really dumb. It's like a throwaway Tales from the Crypt episode that was turned into a full length movie.
>IV
This is where the whole thorn story line begins. Should you care? Nope, but this one is okay.
>V
Whatever. Honestly, you don't need to see these mediocre sequels. Is it better than 6? Yes, but by how much? Not much.
>6
I actually think this one isn't as bad as people say. It's far from the worst thing ever. Did it ruin Michael Myers? Well, in comparison to what's to come - no.
>H20
This one isn't bad, but feels and looks like a Lifetime TV movie.
>Resurrection
Busta Rhymes kicks Michael Myers. Nope.
>Remake
Nope.
>II remake
N o p e.

>F13
You're better off watching Black Christmas.
>2, 3, 4
These are okay.
>5
This isn't.
>6, 7
These are fun, but not great
>8, 9 and X
Garbage.
>Remake
Whatever. It's there, I guess.

Halloween and Elm Street are classics, Friday the 13th sucks, the whole series sucks. I also like Freddy's Revenge more than Dream Warriors, fucking chilling soundtrack and Freddy is genuinely scary for the last time.

>>86511397
>Busta Rhymes kicks Michael Myers. Nope.
And fucking lives to talk about it.

>>86511587

Test audiences were a mistake.

The Friday the 13th movies are great save for Part 9 and Jason X. Friday the 13th Part 6 Jason Lives is the best Friday 13th film though Part 4 would have been a good way to end the series The remake isn't as bad as people say.

With Nightmare of Elm Street I've got to go with Dream Warriors.

The Halloween movies in general were all over the place. The first one outdoes just about everything else except H20 which had its moments.

I like Jason Goes to Hell fite me

Halloween 1 is best out of all of them, 1st 4 are worth watching if you enjoyed the first enough.

Nightmare is a bit all over the place, 1 and new nightmare are really good though.

F13 is derivative shit that is nowhere near as good as anything it rips off. But alot of it is comfy tier as long as you realise its all garbage

>>86511923
How does it feel to like the movie in wich Jason is the least ammount of time in? (Not counting Part V and I of course).

That opening was all the Jason the film needed

Honestly, the original Halloweens 1 and 2 are the best entry for slasher. They both take place the same night so it's basically 1 whole movie split into 2.

>>86507007
He did but not exactly like the reboot, he jogged, I don't remember him charging at people with a machete full speed

Definitely my favorite Jason just because he's the scariest one, the one that feels way too real

>>86512186
Pretty sure Friday 13th 2, 3 and 4 all lead directly into each other too

>>86505898
The best slasher movie of all time is The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 1974

They're all within the same week. But Halloween 2 retains the original actors from part 1. They even have Annie's actress show up as a corpse on the gurney.

You son of a bitch

Danny McBride's Halloween comes out next year. I bet that it'll be better than all of these. They'll probably make Michael smoke some weeeeed.

>>86505898
F13
Best: Friday the 13th 4, then probably F13 6.

NOES
Best: NOES 4 Dream Warriors

Halloween:
Best: No contest, just original Halloween.

But also the F13 and NOES remakes are both good, people don't like NOES remake because it ditched the humor for more violence/fucked up shit, and F13 1-4 are all good, Jason X is fun, and Freddy vs Jason is actually really entertaining.
