7 Slasher Movie Characters All Named Tina

by Joel Edmiston

Last year, on a rewatch of the Friday the 13th series, I noticed there are three different characters named Tina spread across the franchise. I thought this was unusual, because I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone named Tina, and yet so many were turning up in this one-cottage town. I just went on thinking that maybe there was an olympic swimmer or something from Crystal Lake named Tina that they were all named after. Then, as I went on watching and rewatching slasher films of the '70s, '80s and '90s (as cool guys like me tend to do), I kept hearing that name “Tina.” It’s an extremely common name in all these movies, not just in Friday the 13th films. I don’t know why. Was it a common name back then? I have no idea. I wasn’t even born yet. This is not an investigative piece on why this phenomenon took place. I’m just going to talk about the Tinas. It’s time for Tina Talk, baby!

Welcome to Prime Time: A Look Back at Dream Warriors

by Anya Novak

Thirty years ago this week, audiences flocked to the theater to see the release of the third Nightmare on Elm Street film. Dream Warriors has since topped horror fans’ NOES rankings and stands as my personal favorite of the entire franchise. When it comes time to choose an Elm Street movie to watch, I keep returning to Weston Hills Psychiatric Hospital to witness a group of troubled teens turn their weaknesses into strengths, and go toe-to-toe with pure evil.

Staying Positive: Freddy vs. Jason

by Adam Thas

Somewhere in a dark and gloomy boardroom, a few movie producers concocted a devious plot to attain great sums of money by putting two of the greatest villains of the '80s horror together in one epic money grab. Okay, that probably isn’t exactly how it went, but in 2003 I could not have been more excited for my generation’s version of The Wolfman vs. Dracula in an epic drag out brawl.
