Pros: Not quite as bad as everyone makes it out to be. . . Cons: Pity it's not a good Friday the 13th movie!
Reinventing the Friday the 13th property is very dangerous ground, riddled with the corpses of failure more often than not. Paramount tried and produced the worst movie of the franchise. After selling the sequel rights to New Line Cinema, they ...
Pros: Different style and plot Cons: Acting, lacks direction
Although just about everyone seems to hate this film with a passion, I still wanted to see it. I feel the same way about this film as Halloween three. Everyone hates it but I like it. Even though I don’t really think it was that good of a film it is ...
Pros: We finally get some answers, some very clear direction Cons: Raises more questions than it actually answers
WARNING: This review contains spoilers about the first eight films in this series Over the course of the Friday The 13th saga, many questions about the Voorhees family Jason in particular have been raised. While some characters ...
I loved the first eight Friday the 13th films, so I had to see the ninth. But its probably the worst horror movie I have ever seen and I hate this movie. Why do I hate this movie? Because this totally betrays Friday the 13th fans like me! I would ...
Pros: Gore, nudity, Kane Hodder, some fun and style, originality, few good actors. Cons: Borrows from many horror films, takes a swerving alternate direction, lack of hockey-masked one.
JASON GOES TO HELL - THE FINAL FRIDAY is a New Line Cinema presentation, rated R/unrated for strong violence and gore, and for sexuality and language. The running time is 88/91 minutes and it premiered theatrically August 13, 1993.
Pros: An actual (though silly) plot, plentiful & bloody gore effects, Jason looks menacing. Female nudity Cons: Uneven acting, has nothing to do with prior F13th films, rips off The Hidden.
Okay, I admit it. I actually have a soft spot for Friday the 13th films (well some of them at least). While none of them could ever be called truly great cinema (actually most of the films are downright awful), being a horror fan and self professed ...
Pros: Some more originality..... Cons: ....but the film literally chokes on it!
It is fair to say that familiarity breeds content in some circles; after all, look at every AC/DC album since 1981.
But whilst AC/DC are recycling something that is arguably great, the producers of the Friday The 13th movies are, sadly, not (I still...
Pros: Different kind of Friday The Thirteenth Movie. Cons: Not a very good movie.
I'm honestly not sure if I've seen all nine of the "Friday The Thirteenth" movies, though I know I've seen most of them. While I used to think the worst of them was the dreadful "Jason Takes Manhattan", I no longer thought that...
Pros: Kane Hodder Cons: weak story, terrible filmwork and directing
Although this Friday the 13th movie was different than the others, it was by NO means either original or captivating. The idea of evil taking the forms of different bodies is old. Actually, I thought they stole this idea from Terminator 2: Judgement Day. ...
Pros: Strays from formula, special effects better than the 80s ones, parody element Cons: character development (boring), plot (weak)
The Final Friday is a fun departure from the formula. It starts with the formula, but then we get a surprise that actually caught me off guard. But then I groaned when I found out that the best way they found to keep Jason alive was for some guy to eat...
Pros: No cheap "B" movie feel. Cons: Not enough screen time for Jason.
Hardcore Jason fans will be very disappointed in this film. The beginning starts off promising, with everyone's favorite hockey-mask wearing serial killer making a quick entrance, but he is soon ambushed (and blown up) by the FBI. With his body...
Pros: Good effects and interesting approach Cons: Only five minutes of the actual Jason in this one
After years of killing and killing and killing, the government finally steps in to the bush to flush out this serial killer, who is probably the most wanted criminal in history. Successfully ambushing Jason in the forest, they use the artillery on...
Pros: Great title! Cons: Not Perfect, and I want more Hockey Mask!
This has to be the strangest Friday of them all, as they try to bring the series to a end with some Vorhees history. Jason is not in his form for most of it, but the movie does offer some excitement and some very gory death scenes. I wouldn't put this...
