After 10 sequels, a crossover with Nightmare on Elm Street and, yes, even a remake, the official body count from the Friday the 13th franchise stands at a towering 199 victims. That’s 199 horny teens who naively ventured into the woods, got laid in tents and/or wandered somewhere alone even when all signs pointed to their inevitable doom.

Can I get a “ch ch ch ah ah ah“?

Because it takes some perverse creative ingenuity to stand out as the best and grisliest among 199 kills, we figured we would pay credit where it was due, today being Friday the 13th and all.
