Despite the fact that we were granted a Freddy vs. Jason movie in 2003, we never really got what fans had been clamoring for – and that was essentially Robert Englund vs. Kane Hodder. To many, Hodder was the definitive Jason Voorhees, so that wish made sense. Regardless, the studio went in another direction and placed Ken Kirzinger under the hockey mask instead.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not here to play favorites. I’ve met both Hodder and Kirzinger, and they’re great guys. Still, none of us can help pondering “what if?” scenarios had another director been at the helm or another screenplay settled upon.
Fortunately, anybody attending Monster-Mania Con later this summer will receive what’s probably a once in a lifetime opportunity to take a photo with both Robert Englund and Kane Hodder. But if that weren’t enough, Hodder will don his costume from Jason X for the shoot!
