Graham (Part VI: Jason Lives ) Kane Hodder (New Blood, Jason Takes Manhattan, Jason Goes to Hell, Jason X) Ken Kirzinger (Freddy vs Jason) Information:[/u] Jason Voorhees was born with a birth defect not only causing him to have low intelligence but a freakish appearance. This freakish appearance caused Jason to get made fun of by the other kids at Camp Crystal Lake non stop. The teasing went overboard when he was pushed into the lake by a group of kids. All of the counselors were too preoccupied by getting high and having sex to notice the yells of young Jason who couldn't swim. Jason was thought to have drowned in the lake and as a few years passed it was turned into nothing more than a campfire story. Years later Jason's mother went insane and started killing off the staff of Camp Crystal Lake in Jason's name. She was eventually beheaded by a female counselor as witnessed by a very much alive Jason. Jason then took up where his mother left off and dispatched of all kinds of naughty teenagers in all kinds of nasty ways. Jason was eventually killed but his strong hate and willingness to obey his mother's orders brought him back as an unkillable zombie. Jason however didn't just stay at the camp as he found himself in New York, Hell, and even Space. Quote:"..." Type:Undead

Homestead:[/u] Grendel ship or Earth 2 First Appearance:[/u] Jason X (2001) Weakness:[/u] Low IQ, androids, the Earth's atmosphere. Favorite Weapon:[/u] Machete Played by:Kane Hodder History:[/u] In what I consider an alternate reality version of the Friday the 13th series, Jason is captured and is planned to be frozen (due to the fact that nothing else can hurt him so containing him is the only option). That would be dandy but people get too greedy for their own good and plan to use Jason to discover the key to his regeneration skills and use it to make money. Jason escapes and kills them all, aside from the woman that wanted to contain him. The two are frozen in the chamber and years upon years later thawed out. Jason is then set lose upon the spaceship and is later defeated by a woman cyborg only to be revived into Jason X. Jason is later blown out of the space station and lands into a nearby lake on Earth 2. Quote:[/u] "..." Type:[/u] Undead/Robot

Favorite Weapon:Butcher knife Played by:[/u] Nick Castle (Halloween) Dick Warlock (Halloween 2) George P. Wilbur (Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers) Don Shanks (Halloween 5: The Revenge of Micheal Myers) George P. Wilbur (Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers) Chris Durand (Halloween H20: 20 Years Later) Brad Loree (Halloween: Resurrection) History:[/u] On Halloween night 1963, six-year old Michael brutally murdered his older sister and ended up locked away in the county sanitarium for the next 15 years. On Halloween night 1978, Michael came home... Michael's primary targets would be found in his own family tree, his rage seemingly fueled by the abandonment for so many years. His sister Laurie Strode, Laurie's psychic daughter Jamie, and Laurie's son John were among subsequent targets. Myers' focus was always "dead on," but anyone - and I mean anyone - who got in the way got dead quickly, and usually in a creative and disgusting way. Getting impaled on something unnaturally was usually the grossest and most effective way to go. Info provided by crazymofo.comQuote:[/u] "..." Type:[/u] Psycho/Immortal (?)

Homestead:[/u] Woodsboro, Ohio (Billy Loomis and Stu Marker) Windsor College (Debbie Salt/Loomis and Mickey Altieri) Hollywood, Ca (Roman Bridger) First Appearance:[/u] Scream (1996) [glow=red,2,300]Billy Loomis and Stu Marker[/glow] Copycat Killers:[/u] Scream 2 (1997) [glow=red,2,300]Mickey Altieri and Debbie Salt/Loomis[/glow] Scream 3 (2000) [glow=red,2,300]Roman Bridger[/glow] Weakness:[/u] Sidney Prescott Favorite Weapon:Hunting knife Played by:[/u] Skeet Ulrich (Billy Loomis) [Scream] Matthew Lillard (Stu Marker) [Scream] Laurie Metcalf (Debbie Salt/Loomis) [Scream 2] Timothy Olyphant (Mickey Altieri ) [Scream 2] Scott Foley (Roman Bridger) [Scream 3] History:[/u] A long while back there was a woman named Maureen Roberts who dreamed of being a star in Hollywood. So she slept her way to the top, which soon led to an unwanted pregnancy (Roman). She ditched the kid and left for a new life in Woodsboro, Ohio. There she found someone and had another kid (Sidney). She broke into bad habits however and slept around the town. The forgotten son tracked down his mother only to be met with unacceptance. This spurred him into a need to kill her apparently and so an icon is born.... Billy and Stu: One of the men Maureen slept around with happened to be Hank Loomis and Roman just so happened to have it on tape. He simply just had to show it to Billy (Sidney's boyfriend) and presto instant hitman (and for free too). Billy convinced his friend Stu to go along with it (he needed a scapegoat) and then it was set. They killed Maureen and moved on. Nearly one year later they decide to start things new, ending their murder wave with Sidney Prescott. Sidney, along with Gale Weathers (local tabloid reporter) and Deputy Dwight "Dewey" Riley were able to stop them. Stu got a TV to the head and Billy was shot several times (once or twice in the head). Mickey and Debbie: Debbie Loomis is Billy Loomis' mother. When she found out about Sidney and how she killed her son, Debbie went all Pamela Voorhees and was set on making her pay (along with Gale and Dewey). She just simply persuaded Mickey (a college student) to go along with her plan. While Debbie was in it for revenge, Mickey had a more modern day "blame it on the movies" type motive that never really panned out. The two were stopped by the unkillable three and things moved on. Roman: Sidney was now in a new home and living under a new alias in California as a new movie is being prepped to be made about the infamous Woodsboro murders. Sidney is called out of hiding by various threats as Roman finds out where she is after killing Cotton Weary (set up for the death of Maureen Prescott is part one). Roman's plan works to get her to Hollywood and he happens to be the director of the current Stab film. Roman reveals his plot and how he basically started the whole thing and this promptly pisses Sidney off. Needless to say he dies and we are left with a happy ending... Quote:[/u] "Hello Sidney..." Type:[/u] Psycho

To avoid death Charles used his voodoo knowledge to transfer his soul into a Good Guy Doll named Chucky. The cops got their body, Charles got a second chance, and poor lil' Andy got a psycho killer in the body of a creepy ass doll. Chucky was picked up by Andy's mother and was given to him as a gift. At first Andy was thrilled as the Good Guy Doll was the hottest toy around and this one was even talking to him. But then Andy finds out Chucky's plan to take over his body and start his murder record anew. Through the convincing of his mother and a police officer, Andy was able to kill Chucky (through burning and a gunshot to the head). Chucky came back twice more for Andy and was finally sliced into pieces by a huge fan. Years later, Charles Lee Ray's ex picks him up from the police impound, sews him back up, and brings him back. Chucky repays the favor by throwing a television into her tub and bringing her back as a doll too, forcing her to join him in quest for new bodies. Through the two's roadtrip, they do it and have a baby, who is left alone. The baby comes in search of his parents and brings them to life once again to cause more chaos. Chucky has lately accepted his role as the infamous Good Guy Doll and no longer seeks out a human host. Quote:"Hi, I'm Chucky. Wanna play?" Type:Possessed/Psycho
