For some reason, I feel like Betsy Palmer's Performance as 'Mrs. Voorhees' in the First "FRIDAY THE 13TH" Movie is a little underrated.
I mean if you just watch her in these 4 clips from the movie below. You can definitely see that she did a very good job.
-------------------------
What does everyone else here think ?

I never understood why Mrs. Voorhees could not comeback to life, but her son Jason did...

You know, I have brought this subject up on another board but if they ever actually did a remake of the original 1980 "FRIDAY THE 13TH" in which 'Mrs. Voorhees' was the Main Killer then I wonder what Actress from today would be a good choice to actually play her. I definitely have some choices. Here they are below!
1. Neve Campbell
2. Jennifer Garner
3. Julia Roberts
4. Charlize Theron
5. Eva Green
6. Geena Davis
7. Carrie-Ann Moss
8. Jessica Alba
9. Winona Ryder
10. Sandra Bullock
------------------------
Does anyone else here have any ideas on who from today would be a good choice to play her ?

I only knew about Halloween & II back in the day - Kids at school told me that I should watch the Friday The 13th series (The final chapter was the last installment at the time)...I end-up catching only the ending of the original Friday The 13th on late night cable, the part was: when Alice is in the canoe after killing Mrs. Voorhees..I said to myself ''What the hell am I watching, soft music, girl in a canoe, is this supposed to be scary?'' ...Then the young Jason jumps out of the water, SCARE the hell out me!!!
I was hooked on the series ever since..

Well when it comes back to the subject of 'Mrs. Voorhees', If I had to Rank all 3 of them from Best to Worst then it would be like this below!
1. Betsy Palmer
2. Nana Visitor
3. Paula Shaw
-----------------------
I don't know why but I just felt like Paula Shaw went WAY TOO OVER THE TOP with her performance as 'Mrs. Voorhees' while the other 2 actresses that played her actually showed emotion and vulnerability.
