Little did that person know, that guy with the hockey mask on set created a pop icon for the ages.

R.I.P. Richard brooker. ;_;

Kane may be the fan fav but Richard Brooker was and still is my fav. RIP bro, you are to me the REAL Jason. EDIT damn I see everyone has a fav. I just like how Brooker’s Jason is a big strong dude. First to sport the hockey mask. And just really scary, no goofing around with him.

R.I.P Richard Brooker who played Jason voorhees from part 3 1954-2013

I love the hockey mask, made it who he is. Very unique idea to have that.

No one cared who he was until he put on the mask

The goalie mask/machete/factory worker getup is iconic but my favorite Jason look will always be the original look from 2. Tater sack, denim overalls, and a pickaxe. Its more backwoods/hillbilly and true to who he is.

Kane and Brooker are the 2 best Jason's I have a replica of the 1982 mask coming can't wait and a polished stainless steel machete that says Friday the 13th on the sheath I plan on having kane sign but Friday part 3 is one of my favorites plus it came out the year I was born 82 🤟

To be honest Jason is the scariest killer that has ever been in a movie and Micheal is the second scariest

who watchin all this after playing the game lmao

RIP Richard Brooker. It was an honor meeting and knowing you.

Also, they didn't make new masks for The Final Chapter. They used THE stunt mask from Part 3 for the entire movie, and then they used that mask for two scenes in Part 5 with a blood streak seemingly for some reason relating to the crack that came about during filming of The Final Chapter, which NECA actually replicated in the end scene mask for the Ultimate Final Chapter Jason figure.

Honestly, when I play the Friday the 13th video game and I see Jason WITHOUT his mask... He just doesn't feel right. Without the mask, he just looks like a deformed man(or deformed zombie) I truly think that Jason IS what Jason is simply because of the iconic mask. I love it

I like that utility belt that Jason wears in Part 6, it has a holder for his machete and a pocket to hold those little metal spikes.

R.I.P. Richard Brooker

Me and my friends got together and all dressed up as Jason on Halloween (ax and all). A bowl of candy was placed on the porch so people could get a piece. We hid in the bushes so no one could see us. The sign said, "Take only one piece of Candy or be haunted by the curse of Camp crystal lake!" If someone took 2 or more, me or one of my friends would follow the person to either their house or their car, not saying a word. Best part is that someone was following people dressed as Jason on the other side of town, so when people saw us doing the same thing they flipped their shit. Best Halloween Ever!

dad : "since when do you play hockey" son : "since when do you not know who jason is"

what documentary is this from?

It's a good day to see this video

I doubt the mask Shelly wore was made of leather, but overall awesome video!

Does anyone believe that the shelly mask was leather, or just bs to avoid royalties to the Jaque Plante estate?

Thanks for posting!

By the time Hodder came along it was nothing more than a zombiefied Jason. Dude wouldn't run, he wouldn't groan when being struck by a weapon, and he was just boring. Have you noticed Hodder has no real bulky shoulders? Compare him to the guys who portayed Jason in 3 and 4,those guys look scary, that have mass, they look menacing. Hodder looks like a dwarf next to those guys. To me parts 3 and 4 are untouched,theyre legends. They react like a wild animal when struck by their prey, they groan, they run, theyre more human but at the same time react like out of control maniacs,theyre totally scary. Richard Brooker is my absolute favorite,he's got a swagger when he walks with the mask,its creepy as hell.

Richard Brooker was the best. The clothing, the makeup that was used in the film and his performance are the best by far. I never liked Hodder in the role and never liked the films after Final Chapter aside from Jason Lives because it's so different from all the others. But Brooker had the most believable Jason from the era when the character and stories were set in at least a remotely realistic story.

Watching the movies for the first time!! And I'm 31 years old... Why it take me this long... No idea

What I don't get is that if Part 8 is a new mask for Jason, then why is there an axe mark on it?

Great video auz thanks for sharing

As a Myers fan, I do disagree with Bracke's conslusion. Jason had a "hockey mask", which, to him equates to strength. But even as small as it may be, it has an identity and a reference to something. Myers, on the other had, had a pale white, "pasty" mask as Bracke calls it, meaning there is no reference whatsoever other than being a mask. And that was the stroke of genius by Carpenter. I'd always felt Jason came across as cardboard, and even when he became this supernatural being it still felt forced from a tonal point. Myers through Part 2 (1981) was a "force" of evil that was never really replicated. A lot of that had to do with Dean Cundey's photography (as seen by even Part 3 which didn't have Myers at all).

Great video. Thanx

Oh ok, thanks. Haven't picked that up on blu ray yet. I do have the new doc pre ordered, can't wait to watch that.

Shelly was the best character.

great video!

the town that dreaded sundown is were you got the bag idea in part2.

A lot of facts that I as a super fan didnt even know! Really cool!

Awesome vid

Legacy of the mask is great to watch way to go Jason 👍👍👍

5:00... BEST acting exchange of all time.... both of them deserved an Oscar for this performance.

Little did ppl know, a prop just grabbed to cover up his face so they didn't have to do full make up effects made him an icon. Btw, Richard Booker is such an underrated Jason.

It's odd that they mention The Elephant Man, when referring to the burlap sack Jason wore in part 2, but don't mention The Town That Dreaded Sundown, a film that came out five years before either one of those movies and featured a killer who wore a burlap sack on his head. I always associated the burlap mask with The Town That Dreaded Sundown.

2:27 is Mike DeLuna as Jason going through the window.

First of all R.I.P. John Carl Buechler, but, as many people have asked, including myself previously, considering the concern he apparently had about the details of Jason's appearance and having it reflect the damage he'd received over the course of the franchise, how in the world did he pass a mask that didn't contain the bullet hole from Jason Lives and had the boat motor damage on the wrong side? I've heard or read about some kind of mirroring in the scene where it's shown in Jason Lives, and I've gone back and paused on that specific point in HD and you can clearly see the ax mark on the side opposite the broken off jawline piece with the mask in its correct non-mirrored orientation.

at my house we actually have one of the official Jason masks

3:17 Best backstory for a prop ever!

not just any hockey mask, the crew member had a fibrosport mask designed by the legendary jacques plante, and i may not like wearing a jason mask, but the fibrosport in its narrower design is fun

This is great love the history.

Nice Documentary short

amazing

Friday the 13 forever❤️

Guys guys guys part four is clearly the best

The hocky mask and the glow in the dark hocky mask been around every Halloween since I was a kid in the 90s

I wish there were some kind of a list of dimensions for the masks. Also, I read something that was apparently taken from Crash's old website supposedly quoted from Douglas White in which he describes the process of layering pulls on top of each other, cutting and drilling each one as it's made, etc., but it didn't specifically mention the addition of the clay around the edge which was very obviously done at some point and which you can clearly see in different shots from Part 3, it being angled slightly differently from the main body of the mask resulting from the Fibrosport mask. It would be interesting (to me) to find out whether it was a matter of the enlargements by way of vacuum forming up multiple times just not being enough with him adding the rim around the last pull and then forming that or whatever the case may have been.

Jason is a brand and the hockey mask put a gold stamp of approval. This character will live on like others such as Dracula, Frankenstein, Freddy etc. Cult status.

The mask was called the Fibrosports elite medium hockey mask, they forgot to mention that

It works bc unless you were a hockey fan in the 70s.. you had never seen that type of mask before. It just looks creepy and ghostly.

You ever watch vhs copies of the movies on rewind? I turns into a series of "Bible stories" about this nice man in a hockey mask who rises from the dead, and goes around Resurrecting/healing people until in the end he goes back to the grave.

So crazy how the mask belonged to Shelly and lasted for years and movies

Its a often missed detail that Jason's standard mask in Jason X was a completely brand new design over the standard hockey mask. It is by far my most favorite mask in the series.

Very interesting

And in Halloween, the masks just got shittier and shittier as the series went on. Like, yeah, even though the Friday the 13th series worked as a safe and major source of income for the producers, it's still obvious that the directors and everyone involved had real love and passion for their work. Same goes for the Nightmare on Elm Street films. It's a shame that the Halloween films never had that same passion (John Carpenter's original being the exception, of course!).

I found the sack interesting because I always knew the mask

Love it

"Hocky mask"

The body language of Jason from part 3 is so funny, especially during and just after the speargun kill at the wee pier, he is so casual, go check it out!

R.I.P Richard

Sadoff's claim that the basis for the mask was his Red Wings mask which didn't have the holes in it doesn't seem to make any sense considering that it is clear based not only on the patterns being the same, but the exact imperfect hole placement being identical that they made the original by Vacuforming a Plante mask, which added the rim aspect of the mask, and of course, they enlarged the mask by Vacuforming the original, and then Vacuforming that, and so on. That is, of course, unless the "Plante" masks I've seen with the exact same hole placement as the Part 3 mask were copies of those original Fibrosport masks intended to mimic the F13 pattern.

Part 4 and part 5 masks are my 2 favorites part 5 mask is my favorite though

I like the one that are all damaged and have a lot of scar's and crack's. and are dirty.

Richard Brooker my favorite Jason part three of all time piece out bro 😜🙂

part 2 he is a full on backwood hillbilly, part 3 he still has a bit of that left over.

Thats the old Detroit Red Wings facehugging mask

Brooker seems to have an american accent as he was British

nice

Love that mask.

no this is from the Part 3 bluray.

When I see the burlap sack mask, I think the town that dreaded sundown.

The sun that dreaded sundown did the bag thing too

LOL! Even the KZfaq captions cannot understand Peter Bracke's half a millisecond pronunciation of "Friday The 13th", interpreting it as "Fighter Heat".

It's almost like the hockey mask was an afterthought that they stumbled upon.... that changed the world of horror forever.

part 3 is very good too.

I just never understood why he had on eye hole when he had two good eyes........

classic series was seemed like the production values were way higher than the new line cinema f13 movies

Who feels like they should make a movie explaining why Jason is the killer he is today, but with a story and not a documentary.

I love Jason way more than any other slasher villain

my only concern with the mask is that in Jason takes Manhattan he had the chip on top of his mask still, but lost the chip off the side of the mask where it showed the teeth, other than that love it 🖒

The mask is so iconic that it transcends pop culture and is a part of Americana. You don't even need to know who Jason is to know that a hockey mask is scary.

Little did they know, that Hockey Masked Man is now a Horror AND Slasher icon.

It's part 8, (or VIII, cause the Fridays use Roman numerals, lol) where Jason sees the mask on a billboard, which is sort of used to show how ensconced within the culture he had become, I suppose. But, people (especially fans) had made the "hockey mask = Jason" connection LONG before then.

It's funny how for Part 7 they wanted the mask to have all of the damage, except they missed the bullet hole in the forehead from Part 6.

cool

His mask must be one of the most iconic horror movie props ever. But I like Michael Myers' mask more.

Love the Hockey mask even more than Myers.

Rest in peace richard brooker, im so sad about that

Jason is awesome

Ive always been pissed off, that Paramount left all the extra features on the DVD version!!!!! Ive never got to see this because I dont watch blu rays,

Jason part 4 my favourite

does anyone know who made the part 3 hockey mask Richard is holding? its nice

Whats the musoc playomg at the end of the video?

Jason in part 2 reminds me of the texarkan killer............the town that dreaded sun down

I'm sure a lot sporting goods stores made a lot of money on Halloween of 1982 on the sale of goalie masks lol

What documentary was this from? Also there's another bit of the story that's been around a while. Weren't they dong a lighting test when they had him put on the hockey mask because his makeup wasn't finished and that's how they decided on the mask? I think that's what Martin was hinting at when they were "going to do some makeup tests in 3D to see what Jason would look like"
