Why does jason voorhees look like that

Then Tommy embeds the machete right into the killer's head, making him fall right on the machete to deal even more damage and show off more of Savini's great work. For many, Part IV featured the quintessential human version of Jason. Technically, this one doesn't belong since it is not Jason. It is a paramedic named Roy Burns going on a killing spree after his son was killed.

However, in the context of the film, the identity of this Jason is kept as a mystery until the climax.

Roy Burns is unmasked when he is killed. It's an unmasking that left many Friday fans disappointed and confused. Not only did Roy Burns dress up like Jason but he wore a fancy prosthetic to make his head look like Jason's head. A twist ending that left a sour taste in fans' mouths, but the movie has its followers.

Fortunately, Jason would return with a bang. Literally, as Tommy Jarvis accidentally revives Jason via a lightning bolt. Jason remains masked throughout Jason Lives but his face is shown at the beginning before he regains his mask.

Hidden mostly in the shadows, the few clear looks at the decayed undead look at Jason are actually scary. Jason resembles a zombie who would not be out of place in George A. This look is definitely the most plain incarnation of the character, who was played by Richard Brooker. Ted White played this version of Jason in, what turned out to be, not at all the final chapter.

Tom Savini is the familiar name behind the special effects prosthetics, though he brought a completely unfamiliar look to the character. This version is certainly worlds away from the young version he created for the original movie. We find out that Roy, played by Dick Wieand, was the killer in the fifth installment of the franchise. The decaying body of the killer is essentially just a skeleton covered in worms and other gross stuff.

A bolt of lightening revives the killer so he can do what he does best. This version was portrayed by C. J Graham. The female lead uses her mind powers to tighten his mask to the point where it splits in half. There's also scars from all of the false deaths Jason has accumulated over the franchise: there's an exposed part of his skull with an empty eye socket that refelcts the machete gash that Jason had earned in Part II , a missing ear and an array of exposed molars from when he took a propeller to the face in Jason Lives and a jaundiced eye to contrast his rotten flesh.

In Times Square, Jason shows his face to a gang, in an effective gag that scares them away. By now, Jason's visage is a grey mess, melted by toxic sewage chemicals, sporting a viscous left eye and square teeth that makes it seem as if Jason has a Jack-O-Lantern face.

Jason's mask doesn't come off, since it has been permanently bonded to his flesh. Jason's bulbous head has grown around the straps of his mask, making his whole head look like a monster mask. At one point, Jason's host is decapitated, causing a demon tadpole-thing to climb out of his body in search of another host. Given the context, this is seemingly Jason's true form. Since Jason X establishes that Jason has a healing factor, his face is more humanoid, featuring a nose and curly tufts of blonde hair, but missing lips and with an eyelid over his protruding right eye.

Anyway, Jason's face is only visible for a split second when the not-yet-murdered teenagers attempt to give Jason mouth-to-mouth resuscitation while he drowns within a dream.

Voorhees has these severe deformities due to the fact that he was born with hydrocephalus and an abnormally large head, which, as you can imagine, was the bane of his existence growing up.

And eventually, he was bullied , thrown in the lake and drowned. Thankfully, though, we can remember that Voorhees is a fictional character. The man that created his iconic look was makeup artist Tom Savini. And when Pamela died, Jason made an altar for his mother and then continued killing people in her honor.
