Review of His Name Was Jason: 30 Years of Friday the 13th (2010) by The Critic ( — 10 Mar 2013
This retrospective on one of American cinema's longest-running, (mainstream) critically-hated franchises is an absolute treat for fans.
Cast, crew and horror buffs unashamedly gather to discuss their contributions to and love for the 'Friday the 13th' film series, its appeal, and enduring legacy.
Special effects wizard Tom Savini presents with tongue firmly in cheek and, with the assistance of a multitude of interviews, offers an insight into one of pop culture's most loved figures.
Admittedly, this isn't the sort of documentary that will alter the opinions of critics or even garner the series any new fans, but it is, if anything, a gift to Jason Voorhees' most loyal audience.
