"Kill her mommy, kill her!"

Love how she starts out all nice and caring, then quickly shows us how crazy she is.

'Kill her mommy!' Yes, the woman it all started with! Great character, love how Betsy Palmer played the role. The other women who played her did an ok job, but she's the one and only Mrs. Voorhees for me.

Pamela... Be my mum

@TheWereCreaturesDen "Kill her Mommy Kill her!":-) I like the original the best. You know I would like to get my 12 inch Mrs. Voorhees singed by Betsy Palmer one day.

@noahdanielg *high five* Pamela is way more eerie than Jason. At least Imho she's a bigger icon to me than Jason.

@TheWereCreaturesDen No, here's another one.

I don't know, the crazy guy was in the 2nd movie and he was still just still the town loon. But mrs. voorhees is what started it all, even though the series became extremely campy after the 4th movie

[TheWereCreaturesDen]

Am I the only one who prefers Mrs. Voorhees over Jason?

[13SuperKings]

She was the best killer in slashers lol

[PsychoKiller9999]

I wish Pamela was my mom, lol
