[Letterbox link](https://letterboxd.com/claradox/film/friday-the-13th-part-iii/): 3 1/2 stars

Caught a continuity error this time: The hammock bed, during sex, has a homemade quilt, after the shower has a fur blanket. *Whoops*.

Now I have the first three, my favorites out of the series, as steelbooks. I am a happy 80’s teen. 

The age difference in appearance between Rick and Chris has always struck me as so odd. Looks like a teen and her teacher, instead of two teenagers.

I like how this series, at times, is willing to go *there*. As Sean Cunningham said on the extras on[ the first](https://letterboxd.com/film/friday-the-13th/) steelbook, it was never about punishing naughty sexual teens. It was about how bad things happen to us; let’s look at that. So they go there. In [the second one](https://letterboxd.com/film/friday-the-13th-part-2/), a disabled teen is killed, and completely on-screen; and in this one, one of the victims was pregnant. That’s real life, and [horror](https://there-might-be-cupcakes-podcast.ghost.io/movie-review-parasite-2019/) helps us face real life and deal with it in a safe venue.

There I go, philosophizing after Friday the 13th 3D. Had to use my master’s degree today, I guess.
