If you still say, “Thank Jason it's Friday” - you're not alone! That's right, we're starting a new Part of Friday the 13th on our redux series, and it's the moment Patrick and Gena have dreaded since committing to their stay in Camp Crystal Lake: we're watching Friday the 13th Part 5: A New Beginning. Thankfully, we're joined by the glorious presence of John Brandon (of the Square Roots podcast) to help us in this terrible time of need. We open with an incredible sprint across SIX CHARACTERS because we know next to nothing about most of them. We discuss why grave robbers would want to have sex with Jason's corpse so badly, count the number of Tinas in the Friday franchise, debate cocaine storage strategies, and investigate why everyone in this movie is constantly talking to themselves. All that and America's favorite game - Choose Your Own Deathventure - just as soon as you hit play! Go ahead. We'll wait.
