Ok one time when I was probably liek 7 or 8 I fell asleep in my mom's room and I woke up at like 2-4 in the morning and there was a Jason movie on. I couldnt go back to sleep, so I decided to watch it. Anyway, I didnt see all of it, but the main story is that the people are on a boat, and they figure out that Jason is there or something, so they jump ship and try to get to the harbor or whatever. I think New Your City is where they end up. But anyway, the ppl get split up, and theyre left to fend for themselves and all die except for like 2 I think. But is scared the c**p out of me when I first watched it.

But anyway the reason I need to kno wat it was, is cuz we're playing a sort of truth or dare, and they asked me what my first scary movie was.

So anyway,let me know please

  1. Jason Takes Manhattan is the answer.  That was my first horror movie, too, and that's why I'm such a huge Friday the 13th nerd today.


  2. Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan is a slasher film released on July 28, 1989. It is the eighth film in the Friday the 13th film series and the last film in the series to have been distributed by Paramount. The film's tagline is, "New York has a new problem." It took in a mere $14.3 million at the domestic box office, making it the second-to-lowest grossing film in the series.

    [edit] Plot summary

    After being resurrected once again, this time by an electric charge from an underwater cable snagged by a boat anchor, Jason Voorhees rises from Crystal Lake and kills a couple having s*x. The next day he boards the Lazarus. On its way to New York and full of high school graduates, Jason has plenty of time and people to kill before he eventually chases his prey into the streets of the Big Apple. After Jason kills several passengers and sinks the Lazarus, only two adults, three students and a dog remain. They take refuge in the streets of New York, where their pursuer eventually makes his way as well. Jason kills two of his victims (with another dying accidentally) until he leaves only two students running into the sewers of Manhattan, where he follows. Jason's face is burnt by toxic waste, forcing him to remove his mask. At an attempt to kill the last two survivors, the sewers are washed out with toxic waste, in which the unfortunate Jason Voorhees becomes submerged. The two surviving teens crawl out from the sewers and reunite with their dog in the middle of Times Square.

    [edit] Box office

    The film opened in 1,683 theaters making $6.2 million its opening weekend. Domestically, the film was a flop only making $14.3 million, making it the second lowest grossing Friday movie, even though it made back its budget.

    [edit] Reception

    The film was temporarily placed on IMDb's Bottom 100. Though it has since risen out of that list, it is the lowest rated Friday the 13th film. Perhaps the biggest complaint was in the film's faulty promise of letting Jason take Manhattan.[1] On his commentary track for the film in the box-set, director Rob Hedden acknowledges the faults and even agrees that more of the film should have been set in Manhattan. The film failed to generate a substantial amount of money at the box office, which continued the decline in grosses the series had been suffering, and Paramount sold the franchise to New Line Cinema soon afterwards. Entertainment Weekly labelled it the eighth worst sequel ever made.[2]
