The original Freddy vs. Jason. I just rewatched Friday the 13th recently and was surprised at how much I liked it. I probably need to give A Nightmare on Elm Street another look but for now the pick is Voorhees.

A Nightmare on Elm Street for sure. Friday the 13th is pretty good but I've never really liked the Jason character
Elm Street most definitely. For me t's the concept, a killer who kills you in your dreams. Terrifying.

Hmmm... I'm going to have to pick Friday. I think atmosphere wins over surrealism for me.
I just recently finished watching all the Nightmares and Fridays and am so tired of slashers!!! In both series the following films were not very good compared to the originals. In Nightmare I thought all the films were the same while Friday had some variation but not always in a positive direction. But for the originals I have to go with Nightmare because the idea of a killer killing teens in their dreams is awesome and it was very well done. The first Friday is classic but the fact that the killer is not Jason is a little weird but the ending is EPIC!

^We didn't finish them all.....Just Sayin'. And, oh....Nightmare is way better, though I think I prefer the Fridays more as a whole.

Nightmare without question. Freddy is the more iconic horror villain in my opinion. The friday the 13th series is ok i will watch them but it is by far the most overrated of the horror series that i can think of.

i got to give credit to the first friday 13th, you didn't know who the killer was, and the film had a great sense of suspense, but i think i like nightmare just a bit more. best match up i've seen in a while

Elm Street for me by far. And that doesn't mean I don't like Friday.
Elm Street all the way. Original Friday is solid, but Nightmare is legit...
A Nightmare on Elm Street is better in just about every way. The concept of a killer invading your subconscious is a lot more original than a masked killer hacking up horny teenagers in the woods and Freddy himself has more personality than any incarnation of Jason Voorhees (or in this case his demented mother). Nightmare also possesses a cinematic (weirdly beautiful) production design and a lead heroine that is strong and well written by comparison to the kids at Camp Crystal Lake.

Nightmare on Elm Street EASY! Awesome plot, iconic villain and iconic moments. Friday the 13th is a crap movie, even the first one.
