For Women in Horror Month we at Indie Mac User are taking a retrospective look at our favourite ‘Friday’ final girls !!! *Spoliers*
5) Chris Higgins – Dana Kimmell
Chris was the sole survivor of Part III.
Chris was the first person ever known to have seen Jason as an adult after his supposed death in the lake in 1957, and the first person to have ever survived an encounter with him.
She was also the first person to have battled/fought him with fierce offensive and defensive attacks that inflicted heavy damage on him and were enough to stop him, at least for a short while. Her final axe blow definitely left a lasting impression on Jason!!!
4) Trish Jarvis – Kimberly Beck
Although Trish wasn’t the one to stop the killer, she did take on Jason face to face, and inflicted some damage in the process during Part 4: The Final Chapter.
Trish (sister of Friday Icon Tommy) not only takes on Jason when needed, but she emits a level of rage and physicality not seen in many of Jason’s potential victims.
3) Tina Shepard – Lar Park-Lincoln
None of the other ladies in our list had to encounter a half rotted, zombie Jason like Tina did in Part 7: The New Blood.
It’s safe to say the Carrie/telekinesis angle didn’t go down well with many fans of the franchise….however I LOVED IT !!!! She drops a fricking roof on Jason – EPIC !
2) Alice Hardy – Adrienne King
Even though Alice chopped off Mrs. Voorhees’ head in the original Friday the 13th it didn’t get her the top spot.
Alice was the first to survive a murder spree in Camp Crystal Lake and the only survivor of the summer 1979 massacre.
Unfortunately, her defeat of Pamela Voorhees enabled Jason, who had witnessed his mother’s beheading to vengeance that would lead to her murder (Jason’s first) months later, and many others over the next three decades all at hands of Jason.
1) Ginny Field – Amy Steel
