Is it time for this thread again?
Short answer: With d20 Modern.
Long answer: Freddy Kruger was a child-killer who was burned alive in his boiler room in an act of revenge by the parents of the dead Elm St. children. I'm still working on a template for this one. He was described as a "dream demon" in one of the movies (first one?). In dreams, he's incorporeal and unkillable. When pulled into the real world, he's just an ugly guy with a fancy glove.
Michael Myers is easy. Tough Hero with Boogeyman template.
Jason Voorhees is a bit trickier. The Boogeyman AND Maniac templates both work, but at the same time, he's undead.

When Freddy vs Jason came out, one of my friends turned towards me and said
"Hey, Jason is like a modern flesh golem...only not put together"
I liked the sound of that and would stick to that. You can make him undead if you'd like instead sense it IS more accurate.

God that movie sucked.
I can't say I was expecting much, but it was practically a spoof it was so bad!

...urp... I'm sorry... I just threw up a little bit in my mouth....

The Master of Horror (http://www.mastersofhorror.net/) series is pretty good, and each episode (well, almost...everyone dies in some...) is perfect for an adventure setting.

Oh dear... I'm sorry.

But Masters of Horror looks really cool. I want to see the John Carpenter ones.

There's a 3rd party book, I think it's called Blood and Blades, and it's got all sorts of stuff for making the classic '80s style slasher campaign.
