Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981)
Friday the 13th Part 2 isn’t just a top-tier slasher—it might also sneak in some surprising literary chops. I know, right? Who’d have guessed! This episode of What Monster takes a deep dive into the film and its 1988 novelisation, drawing unexpected lines between Jason Voorhees and H. P. Lovecraft’s The Outsider. I also explore how the movie borrows from—and helped shape—other horror classics like Bay of Blood (1971), Halloween (1978), and The Prowler (1981).
