Howard the Duck - Aug 1, 1986


Howard the Duck was released 25 years ago today on Aug 1, 1986. Infamously, it bombed at the box office and is widely considered one of the worst movies of the 80s.

Also turning 25 years old today is:




Friday the 13th VI: Jason Lives. Arguably one of the best movies in the Jason Vorhees series.

Friday the 13th - May 9, 1980

I'm looking at famous serial killer movies this week as I celebrate the 20th anniversary of Silence of the Lambs.


Here is an ad for the first Friday the 13th. Jason Vorhees debuted as a child in this movie.  However, the killer as we know him later didn't actually come about until Part 2 (sack over head Jason) or Part 3 (hockey mask Jason).

Other serial killer movies:
- Silence of the Lambs (1991)
- Psycho (1960)
- Halloween (1979)

Watch the original Friday the 13th trailer:
