After running the HorrorSCREAM 2023 tournament, I got to thinking, how would I survive in any horror scenario? Truth is, I would likely be one of the first (if not THE first) to die in any horror scenario. I’d stand no chance against the likes of Freddy Krueger (I really, really love to nap) and I’m far to nosy not to try and try to solve the Lament Configuration of the cube from Hellraiser. So instead I moved to thinking “how would some of my favourite characters fair against the terrors of horror films?”
Well, I threw the question over to everyone’s favourite AI chat bot, ChatGPT. Let’s just say it’s thrown out some… interesting scenarios around how these characters might fare. We’ve even asked it to provide a survival chance percentage for each character. So without further delay, here are 10 characters and their survival chances against Jason Voorhees!
Sonic the Hedgehog: Survival Chance – 95%
Sonic’s incredible speed allows him to evade Jason with ease. He would likely outmaneuver Jason throughout the ordeal, using his speed and agility to escape unscathed.
Leon Kennedy (Resident Evil): Survival Chance – 70%
As a skilled and resourceful police officer, Leon would handle the situation tactically. He might use his combat skills and knowledge of survival horror to navigate the dangers. However, Jason’s relentless pursuit could pose a serious threat.
Ash Williams (Evil Dead): Survival Chance – 60%
Ash is no stranger to dealing with supernatural threats. Armed with his chainsaw hand and boomstick, he would put up a good fight against Jason. However, Jason’s resilience might prove challenging even for Ash.
Austin Powers: Survival Chance – 30%
Despite his charm and wit, Austin’s lack of combat skills and goofy nature might make him an easy target for Jason. However, his luck and unpredictable antics could also play in his favor.
Sora (Kingdom Hearts): Survival Chance – 80%
With a Keyblade in hand and magical abilities, Sora would offer a formidable challenge to Jason. His combat skills, agility, and magical powers might give him a good chance of escaping.
Michael Myers (Halloween): Survival Chance – 50%
Michael Myers is a relentless force of evil, similar to Jason. If they were to face off, it would likely be an intense and prolonged battle. However, given Michael’s supernatural resilience, he might endure the encounter.
Bob (Bob’s Burgers): Survival Chance – 20%
Bob’s everyday-guy persona would likely not serve him well in a horror movie scenario. His survival chances would depend on his ability to stay low-key and avoid direct confrontations with Jason.
Tiffany Valentine (Chucky): Survival Chance – 40%
As a character from the Chucky franchise, Tiffany has faced her fair share of horror. However, facing a towering force like Jason would be a different challenge. Her survival might hinge on cleverness and resourcefulness.
Crash Bandicoot: Survival Chance – 75%
Crash’s agility and resourcefulness in navigating hazardous situations might give him an edge in escaping Jason. His cartoonish resilience could also play in his favor.
Mario: Survival Chance – 85%
Mario’s experience in facing Bowser’s challenges might prepare him for Jason’s onslaught. Armed with power-ups and his iconic jumping ability, Mario could find ways to escape danger.
There we go, as with anything, this is entirely speculative but interesting! Who do you think would have the best chance of surviving against Jason Voorhees? Let us know in the comments below!
