Gaius and Jackson look back at one of cinema’s greatest grudge matches between two horror movie icons in Freddy vs. Jason for the film’s 20th anniversary. Directed by Ronny Yu and written by Damian Shannon and Mark Swift, the film is a crossover between the A Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th franchises and it puts their respective antagonists, Freddy Krueger and Jason Voorhees, against each other. Freddy has become weakened and forgotten because the citizens of his home town Springwood have defeated him by using medications to repress dreams. Freddy awakens Jason to stir up fear and grow his powers so that he may return and kill again but Jason turns out to not be easily controlled as Freddy initially thought and the two supernatural mass murderers come into a major conflict. Starring Robert Englund, Ken Kirzinger, Monica Keena, Kelly Rowland, Jason Ritter, Chris Marquette, Katharine Isabelle, and more, the pair look into the film’s impact at the time of its release, the movie’s long journey to the big screen, performances, favorite scenes and more!
