A lot has been said about horror’s Final Girls, but can we talk about a chunk of hunks who have managed to make it to the credit roll? In no particular order, here are 25—give or take—of horror’s most memorable Final Guys. 1. Ash Williams (Bruce Campbell) SURVIVED: The Evil Dead …

Alas! Released on May 13, 1988, the heavy sleeper of the F13 franchise turns 35 this year, and it’s not just the infamous heavy sleeping bag kill that makes Friday the 13th VII: The New Blood so great. We received an unmasked Jason for a full 5 minutes, the makeup …

Sean Cunningham turns eighty years old this year on December 31st. Well, now I feel old. It’s hard to believe that the father of Friday the 13th (1980) is eighty. Seems the older I get, the more I’m seeing my heroes grow old as well. I’ve always felt that in …
