Bede & Steve Vs. Camp Crystal Lake Episode 12.5 - Sweet Revenge (2025)... "Some Campers Never Learn"

Welcome to episode 12.5 of Bede & Steve Vs. Camp Crystal Lake.Yep, you read that correctly. This is episode 12.5. Don't worry, your hosts Bede Jermyn & Steven T. Boltz have a good reason for that. Aftet the release of the 2009 reboot of Friday The 13th, another entry in the series was in development for a few years. However, before the film was made, an lawsuit happened between the 1980 original film's director Sean Cunningham and writer Victor Miller that sent the franchise in dormant for many years until the rights situation was settled in 2021. Not long after that, Miller teamed up with a few producers to star a new company called Jason Un1ve3rse, which would help restart the franchise across of forms of media. First up, the company decided to reintroduce Jason Voorhees to the world again by making a short film called Sweet Revenge, which was written & directed by Mike P. Nelson (Wrong Turn '21, Silent Night Deadly Night '25) and sponsored by the cider company Angry Orchard. Since it's not a feature-length film or TV show, your hosts decided to call this episode 12.5.Joining your hosts to discuss this stand-alone short F13 entry are returning guest filmmaker Adrien Castro & ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠first-time guest for the show Doug Tilley (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cinema Smorgasbord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠No-Budget Nightmares⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠). Highlights in this episode include Doug discussing the first Friday The 13th film that he saw, who liked the short film way more than the others?, was the product placement really all that distracting?, Bede's theory how the short is linked to Mike P. Nelson's segments for V/H/S/85, Schuyler White's take on Jason and so much more.LINK 1: "Jason Universe: Sweet Revenge (2025)" short film by Jason Universe: ⁠https://youtu.be/O_dEbWGRXsg?si=HOqh7ZldydE3rTzf⁠LINK 2: Contribute and support Steve's Indigogo campaign for his short film Do NOT Read from the Book Bound in Human FLESH! here: ⁠https://igg.me/at/R9yVIisdWrM/x#/⁠Social Media Links:Host/Show on Twitter/X - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@BedeJermyn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@BedeVsTLD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Host/Show on BlueSky - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@BedeJermyn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@bedevstld⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Hosts on Letterboxd - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@BedeJermyn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@fulcirama⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Link Tree - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/bedevsthelivingdead⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Show Patreon - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://patreon.com/BedeVsTheLivingDead⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bede's Other Podcasts - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/TheSuperNetwork⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[e-mail]⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Guest Links:Guest on Twitter/X -...
