One-Sheet Wonders! – The original artwork for FRIDAY THE 13th PART 2 (1981)

You ever wonder why the original FRIDAY THE 13th got an intricate poster, but its first rockin’ sequel was saddled with a seemingly incomplete thought for its one-sheet?

Turns out, there WAS another neat and very detailed poster intended for Steve Miner’s slasher classic! Purportedly, the powers that be thought it gave away too much of Jason’s look, and they wanted to keep that under wraps for audiences to see for themselves.

Whether or not that’s true, this take by Spiros Angelikas aligns pretty damn well with the Alex Ebel artwork that became so synonymous with the 1980 original. It’s great that Angelika’s work has found the light of day in recent years and can finally be appreciated by fans.
