199: J.A.S.O.N. - Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday (1993) & Jason X (2001)
This week on the Geek Garage podcast, we dive into the most outrageous and divisive entries in the Friday the 13th franchise: Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday (1993) and Jason X (2001)! In Jason Goes to Hell, Jason’s body is obliterated, but his evil spirit lives on, jumping between hosts as he hunts for a blood relative to restore his true form. Then, in Jason X, the franchise takes a wild sci-fi turn as Jason is cryogenically frozen and wakes up in space 400 years later, becoming an unstoppable killing machine (literally) as Uber Jason.
We share our thoughts on these campy, over-the-top movies that, while far from perfect, still offer plenty of entertainment through inventive kills and impressive practical effects. From demon-summoning daggers to Jason smashing heads in liquid nitrogen, these films are a testament to the franchise’s ability to embrace the absurd. Join us as we celebrate the chaotic fun of these unconventional slasher gems!
