In August of 1986, “Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives”, reimagined Jason Voorhees as the undead slasher we know and love him as today. This new take on the character and lore, can be credited to the movies writer and director, Tom McLoughlin.
Tom McLoughlin is an Emmy nominated screenwriter, film & television director, actor, as well as singer/harmonica with legendary THE SLOTHS.
Tom's first film "One Dark Night" was released in 1982, and since then he has worked on such shows as "Amazing Stories", "Friday the 13th the series", "Freddy's Nightmares", and he has appeared in such films as "The Black Hole" & "Critters 2". In addition to “Jason Lives”, he has also directed countless television movies, most notably the Stephen King story "Sometimes they Come Back"
In this video, Tom McLoughlin will be talking to Tom from Midnight's Edge about all those projects and so much more.

Again, Midnights Edge proving to be the best source of movie news and interview entertainment in all of RU-vid. Tom was awesome to hear from.

Part 6 is my favorite too. Funny, action packed, great soundtrack featuring those original Alice Cooper tracks. Tom McLaughlin was a dream director for this film and it's been my favorite since I saw it in the cinema during its initial run.

by far the best Friday.

He has quite the pedigree! Incredible determination. Jason Lives gave an incredibly boost to the franchise. I remember as a kid I was super-excited by the Frankenstein-like take on Jason. And the great Alice Cooper song! You know Tom should make an horror movie about a killer mime. I wouldn't mind Tom doing a Friday 13th about that storyline with Jason's father.

I'd been waiting for more like this ever since the Hellraiser videos and Jason Lives is my favourite in the franchise, so this was a great listen. Thanks a bunch guys.

It's so great to see a Midnight's Edge episode that isn't about Star Wars or defending "toxic fans", this is what I want from this channel!

It is funny because this was the first Jason I saw as a kid. When Joe Bob Briggs had this on TV years ago on Halloween after trick or treating at about 12 IT SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF ME! Years later I absolutely loved this movie and is my favorite slasher besides Halloween 1 and 2. This was so far ahead of it's time and so much better than most Friday's. Underrated horror classic or at least horror comedy at its finest

I'm going to Patreon over the weekend because of these videos. The Hellraiser videos you guys did was amazing! Thank you

You guys are knocking it out of the park with the interviews lately! So awesome to hear from Tom, can’t wait to see whatever it is he’s working on next.

@q.h.s5051 4 года назад

Favorite Friday The 13th movie. The story, characters, soundtrack as always, Alice Cooper, Jason’s Actor C.J Graham is awesome, the look of Jason, and I like the kills. More Friday the 13th movies sometime in the future should really look at part 4, part 5 (Yes I like part 5) part 6, a bit of Part 7, and 2009. Those are great examples of how to do it properly.

@TheHorrorNextDoor 4 года назад

This was probably one of the most entertaining interviews I have ever listened too. Keep up the great work!

Today it's friday the 13th and I'll begin my parental leave + holiday for 10 months... friday the 13 is awesome in more aspects than one!

@american_alien_1583 5 лет назад

Not the biggest fan of 6, but I appreciate it for what it was trying to do which was completely awesome. Paramount did a great job of reinventing the franchise without destroying it(ie-New Line).

@kevinrudy 3 года назад

My favorite Friday by far

@jamesturner7138 Год назад

Just excellent, I've not seen part 6 yet, going to rectify that this halloween...

@StephenAnderson98403 6 лет назад

As a teen somehow I skipped from Fridays 4 to 7 so never saw his. Or anything he's done ha ha. But I love a glimpse into the mind of an artist, and now I'll have to look up his stuff. Tom from ME has a great laid-back method that seems to cut to the quick while of course never rushing. Too bad no clips of his band (I'm sure for RU-vid flagging bs) but the story of the Sloths seems to bear its own documentary somewhere!

love these videos.. first Hellraiser now Friday the 13th keep em coming lads 👌

@DUARTE99 3 года назад

This was awesome! #Part6Lives

@Jawsphobia 6 лет назад

I've been critical of some Midnight's Edge posts of late, but I must say this is a high value video. This director has been neglected. I liked Jason Lives.

@hanniffydinn6019 6 лет назад

Great stuff !!

You know, the reverence for FTTH PT6 is the same for NMOEST 3:Dream Warriors.

@johnnyskinwalker4095 6 лет назад

interesting, I can see the sort of likeable cheesiness of both movies

@MidnightsEdgeAfterDark 6 лет назад

I'd say a big part of that is the great characters in both

@SomethingThatSCREAMS 3 года назад

Both of those movies had good directors and were very well made. And they both struck a nice balance between dark humor and horror. Something most of the other entries cant say.

@jasonsgandurra7054 3 года назад

Definitely the best Friday the 13th movie in the franchise. I just wish there was more copies of the original soundtrack on CD with all the songs on it, plus the score, but I know the score was finally rereleased.

@TrenchMan93 6 лет назад

My favorite Friday!

@jamesmorant1406 6 лет назад

Friday the 13th 6 Jason lives was an awesome sequel the fact they said this is 6th Friday the 13th can't take it to seriously let's have fun with it so 9/10 ☆☆☆☆

@bhillis99 5 лет назад

6 was good. My sister carried me to see when I was very small. I remember the girl fighting back against Jason. Someone who had a power against him. I screamed a few times.

@deepcutrecords5887 6 лет назад

@rcward 6 лет назад

I'd like more discussion of the game. Where ARE the rights now? There was also a puzzle Friday the 13th game.

@MidnightsEdgeAfterDark 6 лет назад

Actually some recent developments on that, we should have a report soon!
