Freddy or Jason? or maybe i should say "Nightmare on Elm street" versus "Friday the 13th"
Which do you like? I would easily say Nightmare on Elm street, cause it`s less blood and guts, but both series got worse by each film.

I would say the Freddy Kruger series. At the time when I was really into it, the blood and guts ( and just Freddy's antics period) made me like them more. He was funny. Shake....shake, shake, shake. | |

If I had to pick one, it would be Jason. News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so. You have those internalized issues because you want to, you like to, stop. | |

Freddy Talks too much, I like Jason and Michael Myers because theyre more quiet and mysterious. | |

What's mysterious about somebody who carves people up left and right? They're just plain and single minded. 
Freddie actually has me a bit unnerved, which is a great accomplishment for a movie.

Freddy is a much better villain, since there's simply no way you can sympathize with him (as opposed to Jason, who's more of a victim turned evil).
Isn't Freddy a child molestor? I'm pretty sure he molested little girls before killing them. Plus, not being able to fall asleep is far, far worse than just a big guy stalking you in reality with a knife. The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

There was this one where this little girl was the only one who could stop him. She had a huge dollhouse. That's all remember. I don't think he did anything to her though. Actually, I think he even had a daughter before.
He once had victim whose father molested her as a child and he made her re-live it in a nightmare. That's why I liked watching Freddy. He got into ur head for real. Shake....shake, shake, shake. | |

I like the story that he comes when they sleep. He is scary and funny I agree. | |

The movie Freddy Vs. Jason was more funny than scary. Folks were laughing their asses off in the theater.

Well, she was a teenage Patricia Arquette, not a little girl 
A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987) Actually, I think he even had a daughter before.
That would be Dr. Maggie Burroughs, played by Lisa Zane 
Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare 1991 He once had victim whose father molested her as a child and he made her re-live it in a nightmare. That's why I liked watching Freddy. He got into ur head for real.
Err, that's SORTA like a scene in Freddy's Dead, but not quite right.

Personally, I prefer A Nightmare on Elm Street. In the case of both series, they degenerated into parodies of themselves after a few films. The original Nightmare is still a classic.
Some people love the first Friday the 13th, but to me it will always be a lousy rip-off of Halloween

A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987) Um, okay... Can I get some cred? I was 5 years old!

Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare 1991 Err, that's SORTA like a scene in Freddy's Dead, but not quite right. Ok, that means that I need to go to Blockbuster and watch these movies again. 
Thank u. Shake....shake, shake, shake. | |

They're both pussies. It's all about Michael Myers. Which reminds me...I owe somebody in this thread a DVD! 
At any rate - Krueger. Jason became a joke in later films. Krueger was always a jokester. | |

Lawd. I was in college when I saw that flick. Damn, I feel old! Ok, that means that I need to go to Blockbuster and watch these movies again.
Thank u. Well, you really don't need to. Only the first one is worth a damn. The others are fun, but hardly essential viewing.

Myers Rules!! Of course, he's had some stinkers in his series as well, but the original Halloween is still the best!!! At any rate - Krueger. Jason became a joke in later films. Krueger was always a jokester.
I think that was what made the Nightmare films a little more watchable. Both series turned into jokes, but at least it suited Freddy a little better.
I can enjoy those movies, but it is purely for the fun, schlocky nature of them. I loved Freddy vs Jason, but mainly because it didn't take itself too seriously. The director knew what these movies had degenerated into, and decided to have some fun with it.

Jason. I could never take either seriously, but some of the Friday films are flat-out hilarious. | |

Well, the first Friday film was flat-out hilarious, but I didn't much care for the one's without Chris Tucker. Is the next Friday film gonna feature Ice Cube taking on Jason?
