FRIDAY THE 14TH: Only Fools and Voorhees


What if I were to tell you that one of the all time jump scares came from an episode of Only Fools and Horses? And further more, what if I told you that Only Fools and Horses parodied Friday the 13th in their own creepy tale of a 'psycho' axe murderer escaping from a mental hospital in the vicinity of the Trotter's Cornish fishing retreat. You may be surprised, but in an almost perfect sitcom episode with twists and turns aplenty, Del boy and family navigate the odd world of the 'slasher movie'.


If you're into horror films and a fan of Only Fools and Horses I can tell you now that this is your favourite episode.
