We've seen Jason tall in stature, average to muscular build. We've seen him indulge in his murderous exploits adorning a cloth bag with one eye hole, the iconic hockey mask in various levels of weathering and even a metal version that he wore in Jason X. His appearances and even mannerisms have changed throughout the franchise, with much of the body movements most recognized today being improvised by Kane Hodder on set. The way Jason looks and then turns his body in the direction he is looking, the deliberate tilt of the head and many other actions gave a bleak yet present personality to the killer which seemingly had none. |
At a young age Jason Voorhees would find self hatred and insecurity normality. Disgusted by his weight and appearance he often found satisfaction in putting other children down, bullying and forcing his will upon them. His mother Pamela was blind to her son's actions, and did nothing but spoil the young boy with anything and everything he possibly wanted.
While trying to support her gluttonous and spiteful son, Pamela would land a part time job at Camp Crystal lake, where she would ultimately force Jason to attend as to save money on child care. Furious at his mother's choice, Jason's presence at the camp would follow suit with the tendencies that he had in school. Tormenting his fellow camp goers, he had no consideration or empathy for others. His mother had once been told by school counselors that her son had some psychopathic traits and asked that she seek the aid of a psychiatrist for the young boy. It was at this camp where this would be all the more obvious to everyone except for Pamela herself.
Sitting on dock watching the other children swim and enjoy themselves from beyond his reach, Jason whom was terrified of the water scoffed at their joy as the lifeguard sought out Pamela to tell her of her son's actions while under her supervision. It was then that karma and inevitability would prove true for the young boy, as another child would push Jason off the dock and into the water.
Screaming for his life wasn't any louder than the screams of laughter while the bullied children watch Jason squeal, unaware that he was drowning and not throwing his atypical temper tantrum. Jason's cries for help would prove to be his last.
APPEARANCE AND MANNERISMS:
Body Type: He is overweight. This causes Jason's actions to be slow but overwhelming to his victims. Bursts of rage result in a little more haste, but this quickly fleets as he will slow but never stop.
Mask: Contrary to the infamous Redwings Goalie mask, it is in his exploits that he obtains a replica of the fiber glass Jacques Plante version, which not only preceded all goalie masks today, but has a sinister appearance that shadows his screams of agony at Camp Crystal Lake.
Victims: Although his murder spree begins with those involved at the Camp where he lost his life, he has no discrimination of his victims. Jason also exhibits absolutely no inhibition outside of the short amount of distance he will stray from Crystal Lake. If given a small group of teenagers he will not sit idly and wait for them to separate, he will progress forward and murder as many as he can prior to their panic separating them.
Fears: Water is the only thing that deters Jason. Although it is not a fear, any kind of joy or happiness makes Jason angry and exceptionally more creative in his violence.
Intelligence: Void of intellect, Jason is no more developed than he was in his passing.
You might ask yourself.. WHAT WOULD THIS LOOK LIKE? Without further ado.. I give you MY version of Jason Voorhees!
I won't lie though, if I saw a FAT Jason with an entirely different mask and disposition.. I'd boycott the shit out of that movie.
