10 Most Shocking Horror Movie Unmaskings

10. Jason Voorhees - Friday The 13th Part VII: The New Blood

Big bad Jason has his fair share of unmaskings throughout his hefty franchise of movies, but I'm gonna stick with the seventh movie for the likes of this list purely for its iconic nastiness alone.

Where we've previously seen Jason as a child and in potential dream sequences with no mask at all, the first open choice for Jason to show what's lurking under his sports gear is in Part III, where he flips up the hockey mask to let Chris see an unnerving - and familiar - face. As if anyone could forget that mug.

Part VII comes after we see a far more squishy, supernaturally faced Jason in the preceding movies, so we already know we're not getting anything pretty should we get the standard, once-per-movie viewing reveal. And oh hell, do they double down on that when Jason bares all.

With his mask getting tightened by a telekinetic Tina, the thing splits in two just after he whips around to square up to his adversary, bringing what can only be described as a rotten satsuma of a head to the fore. It's a grisly reveal that revels in Jason's zombified grossness, and really - just makes us glad he wears a mask most of the time, to be honest.
