    F13 Ep: Jason Voorhees is Sooo Fetch! (w/Mark Waters, Director of “Mean Girls”)
    Sep 13 2024
    This episode’s not like a regular episode — it’s a COOL episode! 😉 That’s because we’re joined by “Mean Girls” Director, Mark Waters, to discuss “Friday the 13th Part 2” — the film he just so happened to use a clip of in his iconic 2004 teen comedy. And don’t worry, we know how obsessed everyone is with “Mean Girls,” so we asked him all about working on it. Now tune in, loser, we’re talkin’ horror on Friday the 13th!
