Tremble is a horror podcast that cuts through hype to figure out what actually works, whether a movie is trying to scare you, make you laugh, or do both at once.
On this episode, the Tremble crew blasts off with Jason X from 2001, the moment the Friday the 13th franchise officially ran out of normal places to send its killer and decided space was the only logical option. Cryogenically frozen and revived centuries in the future, Jason Voorhees wakes up on a spaceship full of students who clearly made some bad life choices. Kurt, Taylor, and Steve dig into the movie’s self aware tone, its surprisingly fun practical effects, and the now infamous liquid nitrogen kill that somehow became the franchise’s most memorable moment. They talk about Uber Jason, early 2000s sci fi cheese, and whether this entry is a guilty pleasure that understands exactly what it is, or just proof that the series had fully jumped the shark. The discussion gets into how Jason X fits within the larger Friday the 13th timeline and why, against all logic, it might be more entertaining than several of the so called serious entries.
