This
Halloween, one of my favorite directors,
Kevin Smith, has a new movie coming
out, Zac And Miri Make A Porno. Now
while I'm sure it'll be a funny movie
(plus movie with Traci Lords cannot
suck. Well actually, I should probably
rephrase that statement), I'm sure he
looks back at his first film, Clerks,
with fond memories. I only wish I could
say the same thing about my first "movie."
Yes, as a youngster, I always dreamed
of being a big Hollywood director, and
to that end, I would attempt to make
movies with my camcorder, hoping one
day to make it big when I was older.
Well, that never happened, but in the
spirit of both Halloween and WrestleCrap,
I feel it's appropriate to pay homage
to my first ever homemade movie, 1988's
Freddy Vs. Jason.
Now,
I know when the big studio's version
came out in 2003, a lot of people were
disappointed. Maybe fans would've been
happier had they cast OUR Jason. Yes,
forget Kane Hodder, CJ Graham or Ari
Lehman, here's the real Jason...
...played
by none other than WC Radio legend,
Don. (Note from RD: Don Mason). Please
note that horrible tie-dyed green with
white stains collared shirt Don aka
Jason is wearing, which looks like something
the Jolly Green Giant used as a nut
rag.
In
our Friday the 13th/Elm Street universe,
it appears Jason is less concerned about
killing naked babes, and is content
playing pocket pool alongside a tree.
That is, until the magic of stop motion
brings us the arrival of everyone's
favorite child murderer, Freddy Krueger.
One solid left hook to the dome of Jason
by Freddy (played by both yours truly,
Blade Braxton and Corey Diamond) and
the war of the century is about to begin.
Sadly, it is not too much of a contest.
In fact, it's not much of a "movie"
either. To quote Gorilla Monsoon, a
"pier six" wrestling brawl
breaks out, one which would showcase
Jason dominating Freddy with an arsenal
of tactics, one including the side suplex.
Jason was clearly the man in charge
here. Whether it was kicking Freddy's
skull in...
...
or trying his best to imitate Verne
Gagne with his repeated suplexes and
scientific knowledge, it appeared Freddy
was in trouble.
He needed help. If Jason was gonna forget
the knives and machetes and try to go
the wrestling angle to defeat his opponent,
Freddy would do the same. Mr Krueger
would receive wrestling help in the
form of a run-in. A run in my none other
than...
Michael Myers...
And it worked. He would help Freddy
turn the tide of the battle, and put
Jason almost down for the count. As
a wrestling fan, there are images that
stick with you forever. One famous one
is Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka,
perched atop the cage in Madison Square
Garden ready to pounce on a fallen Don
Muraco. Well Superfly, eat your heart
out at the site of Freddy Krueger...ready
to strike from the top of a child's
backyard swingset / monkey bars combo!!!
With one giant leap for mankind (or
kids who have no business making "movies"
in their backyard), Freddy made the
leap, and appeared to finish off our
cum-stain shirt wearing menace.
A happy and apparently victorious Freddy
celebrates. Celebrating his victory
that is, and not the beauty his red
and black sweater he's wearing. A sweater
which by the way, has a nice urine yellow
stripe running across the middle of
it. But, as 9 sequels have shown, you
can't keep a hockey masked man down,
and Jason revives back from the dead,
and delivers a three-point stance tackle
on Freddy, one that would make Hacksaw
Duggan proud, and gets the victory.
Or
does he? Actually, I think myself, one
Blade Braxton gets the victory in all
of this nonsense. After all, there may
be some of you out there who plunk down
some hard earned cash to see this "movie"
in it's entirety, found exclusively
and only on
the brand new WrestleCrap Archive disc.
The
thought of someone buying that disc
to see this "movie?" More
frightening a concept than anything
Jason or Freddy ever did.
