Episode 13 - Friday the 13th

What this episode covers

Machetes, denim hotpants and colourful macs abound as we head off to camp, celebrating our 13th episode in style with Sean S. Cunningham’s cult slasher classic. Coming along for the ride and whacking the bluegrass on the truck stereo this time are special guests Dom and Conor, who have more than a few good (and bad) things to say about the first instalment in arguably the biggest horror franchise of all time. Savini’s FX, Manfredini’s music, Steve Christie’s alarming similarities with the son of God: no lakeside stone is left unturned as we dissect and discuss the film that brought Jason Voorheese to the big screen. Along with a selection of ‘70s panties, checked shirts and a US Monopoly board, in our rolled-up sleeping bags this episode we manage to smuggle Cobra lager, Tiger beer, Old Thumper, Hobgoblin, Brooklyn lager, Biere D’Or, Flying Dog’s Raging Bitch Belgian IPA, Mountain Livin’ Pale Ale and of course, Crazy Ralph’s favourite: Doom Bar. Now we just need to see whether Marcie left any of that grass… *WSD official footnote – in the episode, Iain erroneously claims Friday the 13th was never on a DPP Section 3 list in the UK, when in fact both it and its sequel were. What a dick.
