That’s what we’re here to read. The darkness is palpable.

“It was the Chicago in me that kept me from jumping out in front of the nearest moving car.”
“Essence of Life” by Gail Simone, Tula Lotay, Jared K. Fletcher (2013)
This anthology seems to rely on having some knowledge about these characters from the main series, so it does feel like there’s some vital information missing. But it still hits the high notes.
Kind of a snooze since it’s the same formula for most of the movie. It eventually comes around to something kinda new in their attempt to pacify Jason, but it’s still borrowing from an earlier movie to get there.
On the one hand, I jumped in my seat the first time Jason appeared, even knowing that happens from past experience. It is certainly a spooky vibe. But the route that leads to the finale is particular and not well-explained, so it takes real tenacity and many playthroughs to get there.
