Jason vs Mulder: Ted White on The X-Files

Ted White on the X-Files

One of Ted White's last acting jobs was in 1998, X-Files season 6, episode 4 (and 5) called Dreamland (he was also uncredited in the second part Dreamland II) .

Dread Central: Who is Jason 2?

In case some people reading thinks I was full of shit with the "Who Is Warrington Gillette?" post, in a very ironic way, Dread Central posted something eerie similar- an interview with Steve Dash discussing the very thing that I posted about.

SC: Does it bother you that in the film’s credits they gave Warrington credit as Jason and not yourself and how did that end up happening?
SD: Well, what happened with that is when they hired me for the movie Steve Miner told me they had hired Warrington as Jason and Paramount wanted him to have that screen credit. The only credit they could give me was "Jason Stunt Double", however Miner did tell me that my name would be directly under his name in the screen credits, but as it turned out my credit is in the back of the film. So Steve Miner and Paramount were not totally honest with me. I agreed that it was okay as long as my name was next to his as "Jason Stunt Double" and that’s fine, but the fact of the matter is I’m an actor that has done over 35 movies over the years, soap operas, advertisements, commercials, plays; I’m a professional. I don’t sign things that are not mine. And I certainly don’t want people signing their name to my pictures.

Part 3 location: then and now.

A lot of people may already know that Friday The 13th: Part III was shot at a movie ranch, the Veluzat Movie Ranch in Newhall, California. It was the first to be shot in California, and the first of three in a row. The other parts of Part III were shot in the local area, and I am not sure if anyone has ever found where the Crystal Lake Cafe was shot- if they have, send me pictures!

Jason doesn't run!

So, quite frankly I am tired of this whole "Jason doesn't run!" bull shit. It all started in about 1987 when this guy named Kane Hodder came up with that awesome bit "trivia" completely disregarding the fact that Jason II, III and IV ran and Jason VI came damn close. I don't know- it is a pet peeve of mine to hear fans say that. Hell, some of the best Jasons ran and I consider Friday The 13th 1-V THE best in the franchise.

eBay: Part 6 mask for sale from original!

Here it is- after much talk of actually doing it, here it is.I am not sure how expensive this will be bid up to but I imagine it would go as high as $800. It's a chance to own a piece of history, cast straight from C.J. Graham's actual mask.

This is a tooling master cast created directly from C.J. Graham’s original hockey mask used in the opening sequence of “Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives.”

This Jason Hockey Mask is approximately 9 ½”x 9”x 4” and made of a very thick and durable white urethane casting resin. This casting was made as part of a restoration and preservation process done with C.J. Graham’s original “screen used” title sequence mask. I am the person who was responsible for making and painting the original masks for Reel EFX for the 1986 production of “Jason Lives.”

I'm pretty psyched about this and hopefully a mask maker gets his hands on this so us collectors can have a reasonably priced reproduction in our collections! The mask also comes with a certificate of authenticity and a signature from C.J. Graham.

With all of the Tarallo vs. White debate on the origins of the Part III masks, here's a chance to get one from the real man of the 1986 mask, straight from him.

Much love: Part 3/4/5 "hero" mask.

WarLock from the Night Owl Productions forum just did this one up and man I love it. I am delighted about the recent love for this mask and it's been my favorite for a long time. Oddly enough, we only really see 10-15 seconds of this mask in Part V. It's the same mask used in Parts III & IV, of course more weathered and with more blood. Here's what WarLock said about it:

Well here it is... I've been wanting to do this style for a long time now and finally got around to it. I spent about 2 weeks on this one on and off to get it as close as I could to Dick Warlock's screen used hero mask. I reshaped it and gave the axe cut a warp just as it looks in the behind the scenes pics. The final look is something I've tried to achieve for a long time now. I almost don't want to let it go. Anyway, I will be shipping this one to AllHallowsGhost next week. On w/ the pickage! I'll try to post more if I get the chance.

Next to Crash's, this one has to be the best that I have seen. Hit him up if you want one, he's doing them up for people! For reference the one to the right is the real deal, owned by Dick Warlock himself.

What's up with the sack head?

We all know that Jason's sack mask in Friday The 13th Part II was done before in The Town That Dreaded Sundown, but was it really a stolen idea? Steve Dash was asked once about it and he pretty much said that he had no clue what inspired it. He did go on to say that Steve Miner ditched the idea in Friday The 13th Part III because of the complications that came with shooting- basically, the sack had to be taped down to his face with double-sided tape. He mentioned that when he would run the eye hole would move around and it made it hard to see. After many, many takes over many, many days removing the mask from the double-sided tape ended up ripping the top layers of skin off and made the ordeal painful.

Friday The 13th Blog: looking for post authors!

Love Friday The 13th? Write well? Have some free time? Well, why not write for the Friday The 13th Blog? Hell, I'd do it if I really wanted to write about the remake as much as the classic (That's parts I-V) saga- go check it out!

With Friday The 13th-mania coming into full swing I am sure there will be more than enough Friday The 13th news to post about! Looking forward to this and I really hope the franchise gets as popular as it was in the early to mid 1980's! Jason being re-born really gets me excited as I was nearly dead-tired of that zombie Jason bullshit.

Friday The 13th Part V modernized trailer.

Okay, I am most definitely a minority here, but I love Friday The 13th Part V. In my eyes it's the last good Friday The 13th movie before the franchise went to shit. I have already touched on this, and this trailer from From The Morgue is fucking awesome.
