I just found out that it's been a quarter of a century since Jason, or rather his mum THEN Jason (and once or twice some other person posing as Jason), began terrorizing horny teens. There was even a party.

Was anyone here invited? I sure wasn't. :(
Good to know that Jason has been around for so long. It's amazing that there have been 11 Jason flicks in 25 years.
Here is to 25 more!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
MAY THE CANDLES ON YOUR CAKE
BURN LIKE VIRGINS IN YOUR WAKE!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
"With a young actress on his arm â€" screaming, of course â€" an actor in a Jason costume was treated to "Happy Birthday" sung by many of the performers who'd played Jason's victims.
After being asked to cut the first piece of his birthday cake, "Jason" whipped out his machete and hacked it to pieces, to the delight of dozens of cheering fans."
That's sounds like a hell of a fun party!
I've never really sought out the Jason films though; I've only seen a few, including the Freddy Vs Jason movie, but it's always good to see people celebrate in such a style, and the prospect of a new Jason movie [not counting the Freddy Vs Jason Vs Michael Myers film] is not too bad an idea, as long as it's not set in space and is a lot different to the original [that is if they are remaking the original like it says in the article]
