The Definitive List of Movie-Mold Jason Replicas

See also: my definitive list of movie mold hockey masks.

Part I: Sorry, the mold is not known to survive and no replicas were made. I've heard through the grapevine that a copy may exist somewhere but this is unconfirmed :( Here's a few photos of the original mold and the movie appliances anyway so you can dream of what might have been (click to enlarge).

Part II: Horror Sanctum Studios, an early pioneer in the replica business, released "Inbred" way back in 1981, reassembling the original facial appliances worn by actor Warrington Gillette in the closing scenes of Friday the 13th part 2. Only three copies are known to survive, making this an incredibly rare piece. Estimated value about $2,000.

Shameless plug: My 3D prints of the Mrs. Voorhees head used in part 2 are the only exact replica of this original screen-used piece (or any other of Mrs. Voorhees) to exist. Valued at $500.

Part III: No movie mold pieces are currently known to exist.

Part IV: Ryan Bean's Bloody Ending II comes straight from a movie mold stunt mask that was sold through a horror magazine ad back in the 1990's. The Bloody Ending II is currently sold as a blank for $250, cast in translucent, flesh toned resin in life size. The only movie mold part 4 replica currently on the market.

From stunt mask to retool to resin final version

The widely coveted "Mangler" though it suffers from a bad seam and molding, among other flaws, is also a descendant of this mold, being a direct casting of the dummy that took the machete to the chest near the end of the film. (Said dummy is currently owned by Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett). A few Manglers were produced by members of Tom Savini's FX team in the 1990's and sold to collectors before Savini himself sold the source dummy. Est. value: $500-$1,000.

The Mangler. Man those teeth suck and it's a shrunk piece but pretty cool anyway.

Part V: It is likely that the cowl worn by Tom Morga as both Jason and Roy Burns was either the same one worn by Ted White in part 4, or a recast of that, which makes it the same mold origin as the Bloody Ending II and Mangler. No recasts of part 5 movie pieces survive, but artist Justin Mabry is known to own a casting of actor Dick Wieand's face that was used in the film. Update: Justin has apparently hinted he's into having this face reproduced YAY.

Part VI: Horror Sanctum Studios produced a limited run of movie mold replicas from the Dan Bradley version of the undermask back in 2012. Cast directly off a movie mold piece owned by collector Billy Kirkus, the pieces are said to run a little small, but are nonetheless coveted by serious Jason collectors. HSS also produced a run of coffin dummies in 2011 from the movie dummy. Both pieces sold for $500 each.

Part VII: The Silver Shampain Novelties "New Blood", produced back in 2009 has a face and neck that descend from a surviving cast of the original facial appliances and dentures used in the film; the rest of the head is a resculpt by one of the artists that worked on the original. This was the first Jason piece I ever bought. I think they ran about $250, and were made as wearable masks, rather than strictly display busts.

A more recent version of this design is the incredible "museum bust" produced as a limited run of 13 by Brad Hardin in 2016. Same molds, but the teeth were recast and look much better than they did on the SSN New Blood. $900 a pop, but hot damn what a glorious piece.

Damn.

Even more recently than that is an extremely limited run (3 to 5 pieces) of the master mold of the SSN New Blood. Here's my copy:

(Jan. 2020 Update) But wait... there's more! The only known set of both original hands from part 2 have recently been acquired by collectors who plan to offer a limited run of replicas. 

Part VIII: The movie mask was sculpted by a Canadian FX team consisting of Tibor Farkas, Jamie Brown and Bill Terezakis. Farkas was known to keep copies of the face in his shop for several years, but according to his family the shop was liquidated after his death in 1999. No copies are known to survive.

Jason Goes to Hell: Horror Sanctum Studios produced a couple runs of another Kirkus movie mold piece in 2011. Like the other Kirkus pieces produced by HSS, these went for $500 brand new.

Jason vs. Freddy: No known movie mold replicas exist... yet. But I have acquired a production cowl that I'm considering reproducing.

Jason X: Two face castings are known to exist in the hands of two private collectors, and a partial head casting from a stunt dummy also survives. John Lawrence bought one and made a handful of castings in white resin, one of which I own.

Remake: European movie prop collector Dirk Mueller is known to possess a cold-cast bronze bust of the movie sculpt purchased directly from FX artist Scott Stoddard as what was intended to be a run of 13 pieces. Only three copies are known to exist, probably because they were a whopping $2,500 a piece.

NOTE: Some replica collectors have expressed interest in recasting one of these pieces to sell to fans. Since this piece was made specifically for collectors, I do not condone and would not back a recasting of this piece without the approval of the artist. I do however STRONGLY suggest to Mr. Stoddard that he come down on his price. After all, you can't price a replica like you would a real prop!
