10 More Most Unintentionally Hilarious Movie Deaths

6. Julius Squanders His Resistance - Jason Takes Manhattan

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFs2B-QEfSA There€™s a school of thought that says that crappy horror movies are, by definition, intentionally funny. That may be true now, but in the days before Scream, bad horror movies were a lot more po-faced. Here€™s a case in point: Friday the 13th: Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan, a film that Entertainment Weekly named the eighth-worst sequel ever made. It couldn€™t even get that right: it€™s crap at being crap. But then there€™s Julius Gaw... Ahhh, Julius. Boxing champion and secondary protagonist Julius Gaw encounters watery child-monster Jason Voorhees a few times before finally being trapped with him on a Manhattan rooftop covered in dry ice. Unable to persuade him to break into a Broadway song-and-dance number, Julius decides to try Golden Gloves Association Rules, and spends literally a minute and a half of screen time doing nothing but attempting to knock Jason out, achieving nothing but exhausting himself. Finally, he resigns himself to his fate, and invites the tubby zombie to take his best shot... and Jason literally knocks his block off with one punch. Beautiful.
