\n\t\u201cCrystal Lake\u201d star Linda Cardellini is teasing the upcoming \u201cFriday the 13th<\/sup>\u201d prequel television series.<\/p>

\n\tCardellini stars in the Peacock series as the franchise antagonist Pamela Voorhees. The show, premiering Oct. 15 on the streamer, follows Voorhees\u2019 life prior to the events of the first \u201cFriday the 13th\u201d film. It also stars William Catlett as Levon Brooks, though exact character details remain under wraps.\u00a0\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI remember one of my most fun moviegoing experiences was I saw \u2018Freddy vs. Jason\u2019 on the Universal City Walk, which is a giant movie theater, at the height of its popularity, and people were screaming at the screen and throwing things,\u201d she told me Sunday at the HBO Max Emmy Nominee Celebration event in Hollywood.\n\n\t\n\n<\/p>\n

\n\tDoes she predict the same for the new TV show? \u201cThis is a longer format so there\u2019s a lot more you get to do in eight episodes,\u201d Cardellini said. \u201cIt\u2019s not necessarily like 90 minutes of pure horror. There\u2019s a lot of story there. So maybe once in a while you\u2019ll throw some things and scream.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAnd possibly cover your eyes.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt does get gory, yes, so much so that I wish sometimes they weren\u2019t as practical as they were,\u201d Cardellini said. \u201cThere\u2019s a couple of gory moments on set that were very practical that were pretty gross. Blood everywhere at one point.\u201d<\/p>

\n\tCardellini said most horror scripts she\u2019s given are for characters who are running away from the killer. \u201cEverything that I\u2019ve ever read that was handed to me that was in that space was for the person who was being chased, not the person who was chasing everyone,\u201d she said. \u201cIt was really fun this time to be on the other side of the knife.\u201d\n\n\t\n<\/p>\n

\n\tPamela first appeared in the original \u201cFriday the 13th<\/sup>\u201d movie in 1980 as Jason\u2019s mother. She exacts revenge on people who she believed were responsible for Jason\u2019s drowning in 1957 at Camp Crystal Lake.<\/p>\n

\n\tCardellini attended the HBO Max Emmy event to celebrate her nomination for her work in \u201cDTF St. Louis.\u201d<\/p>
