How it feels

A hockey mask wearing serial killer named Jackson grows tired of killing and starts a relationship with a blind woman. This is a parody that makes fun of slasher movies while following the killer's unusual love story.

What happens

Unmasked Part 25 (also known as The Hand of Death and Hand of Death Part 25: Jackson's Back) is a 1988 British slasher film directed by Anders Palm. Written and produced by Mark Cutforth, the film serves as both a horror film and a parody of the slasher genre, and the Friday the 13th film series in particular. It stars Gregory Cox as Jackson, a hockey mask-wearing serial killer who develops a romance with a blind woman named Shelly (played by Fiona Evans) and grows weary of his murderous ways. The film's cast also includes Edward Brayshaw as Jackson's father. Unmasked Part 25 was shot on location in London, England, and was released direct-to-video. In 2019, the film was restored and released on DVD and Blu-ray by Vinegar Syndrome. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
