“You can sign it to ‘young nubile camper #37 please!’” It’s a likely request to be heard February 3rd at a special signing in Los Angeles.

By now, I’m sure you’ve heard of His Name Was Jason, a documentary that promises to aptly cover 12 films of the Friday the 13th saga over the last 3 decades and includes everyone from the first Jason (Ari Lehman) to the latest Jason (Derek Mears) and every killer/killee in between! On the date of the DVD release, February 3rd, LA horror hot-spot Dark Delicacies is hosting a remarkable signing with almost 30 former stars, writers, directors, special-effects artists and lucky souls (or unlucky, depending on which side of the machete they ended up on) involved with the franchise since the start in 1980. Signers include…lots of guys who have played Jason! Including Derek Mears,  Kane Hodder and tons of others! Hit the jump for all the details or go to Dark Delicacies’ Official Website to reserve your copy and place in line!
