Friday The 13th Crossovers: The Powers Of Matthew Star
We have had a long line of Friday The 13th Crossover stories posted on our website of late, and normally the featured actors of our crossovers have starred in projects in the motion picture industry and the Horror genre. However, there are instances of specific crossovers not in motion pictures that must be mentioned due to the actors involved and such is the case with the television show The Powers of Matthew Star. The show starred two Friday the 13th film stars, Amy Steel (Ginny, Friday the 13th Part 2) and Peter Barton (Doug, Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter).
Peter Barton played the title character, an alien, and Amy Steel played his girlfriend Pam Elliott.
