Tutorial Video Shows You How to Kill Jason in ‘Friday the 13th: The Game’
Just like in the movies, it’s impossible to kill Jason without Tommy Jarvis.
While I haven’t personally gotten the chance to play Friday the 13th: The Game (I’m picking up a Playstation 4 soon, so holding off until I get it in), I’ve heard enough good things from friends to know that it’s well worth the wait. Our own Jimmy Champane and Trace Thurman have both been having a blast with the game, which allows you to play as either Jason Voorhees or camp counselors on the run from Jason. From what I gather, it’s basically a Friday fan’s dream come true, and I cannot wait to dig in.
As much fun as it is being killed by Jason, have you been wondering if it’s possible to actually give the big guy a taste of his own medicine? Yes, you can actually kill Jason Voorhees in Friday the 13th: The Game, but it’s going to require a perfect storm of teamwork between yourself and 2-4 other players.
In short, you have to first pick up Mrs. Voorhees’ sweater from a cabin that’s found on each map, while playing as a female character, and you also need to summon Tommy Jarvis and knock Jason’s mask off. With his gnarly face exposed, the female character (wearing mommy’s sweater) needs to mesmerize Jason into stopping dead in his tracks. Once stunned, he needs to be knocked down to his knees, allowing the person playing as Tommy to come in and hack into his face with an axe.
Visual aids are better than words, so watch a few friends howl with excitement as they show you how to kill Jason Voorhees in Friday the 13th: The Game!
All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are deeply saddened to learn that George A. Romero Foundation Founder and President Suzanne Desrocher-Romero has passed away.
GARF shared in a statement on socials, “It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Suzanne Desrocher Romero. Suzanne passed away of natural causes on June 24 at her home in Toronto after a prolonged illness.”
The statement continues, “Suzanne was the fierce leader of the George A. Romero Estate and The George A. Romero Foundation. She worked tirelessly to preserve George’s legacy. Her work at the foundation will continue to inspire and live on for generations to come. The family asks for privacy at this time.”
Desrocher-Romero founded GARF in 2018, after her late husband’s passing in 2017, and has been a fierce advocate for his legacy and the arts. It was her mission to “strengthen horror as a serious field of global study,” and she was a tremendous fighter on behalf of Romero’s works and supporting new filmmakers inspired by his legacy.
It was Desrocher-Romero who spearheaded the recovery and restoration of The Amusement Park, and, as the person in charge of the George A. Romero estate, worked closely with author Daniel Kraus on completing unfinished novels like Pay the Piper and The Living Dead. She most recently celebrated the restoration of her favorite of Romero’s zombie films, Day of the Dead, and was hard at work producing the upcoming film Twilight of the Dead.
That passionate advocacy led to Suzanne Desrocher-Romero becoming family to Bloody Disgusting as well.
2023 marked the start of an ongoing partnership between Bloody FM and GARF on The Dead, a scripted audio series spanning multiple seasons that saw Desrocher-Romero working closely with the Bloody FM team and mentoring the series’s contributing writers with GARF. To say her loss will be felt internally is an understatement.
“Anytime George Romero is mentioned is good, because what we are doing is to provide a healthy legacy. We’re uplifting his legacy, we’re supporting the archive, and we’re also supporting the Horror Study Center. So, all of these three things are what the Foundation is striving to do. As far as I’m concerned, the more we say George Romero’s name, the better it is,” Desrocher-Romero recently told BD.
It’s the perfect encapsulation of her unwavering enthusiasm for supporting Romero’s legacy and the horror genre, and just a glimpse at how much she contributed to preserving it. She is, in short, an inspiration.
We send our deepest condolences to Suzanne Desrocher-Romero’s family, friends, and GARF.
