    It’s at least debatable that some of these guys couldn’t help it. Like yeah, you shouldn’t slaughter innocent people with various instruments of violence, but you also have to consider what their home lives must’ve been like. Does Freddie Kruger choose to haunt people’s dreams? I literally don’t know, I’m seriously asking.

      The only one that might have a legitimate argument is Freddy. He was burned to death by a vigilante mob after being “cleared” by the justice system. So one could understand his need for revenge. (Just ignore the fact that he really was a child killer and only got off on a technicality)

        Jason has some legitimacy, he was killing camp councilors, as a) they let him die, and b) one killed his mom, who also killed camp councillors who let Jason die

      Look, I feel like you might wanna cook your jets with Freddie, he was a pedophile or something. Or maybe he just murdered kids. Mrs. Voorhees was at least getting a twisted form of vindication for the negligence that led to Jason’s death and depending on your interpretation of the ending may have been literally told by Jason’s spirit to do it.

        Pretty sure it was both. That’s why the parents banded together and burned him alive.
