Jason Goes To Hell - The Final Friday (DVD)

Rather fittingly, this piece of writing is the last of my Friday the 13th reviews. Having already reviewed the other ten films, it seems apt that I should finish on the most notable of the final films. Jason was already killed off, well kind of, at the end of film 4, but made a swift comeback for the sake of box office returns. He's since made ANOTHER comeback, proving that we just cant trust those old film makers to stick to their word. Especially when teenagers flock to see the cool kills on display. The film opens with a hit team luring Jason to his hunting ground, and declaring open season on him. Blown to smithereens, Jason's remains are taking to ...  Read the complete review

*REVIEW OF FILM ONLY* When New Line Cinema bought the ailing Friday the 13th series off Paramount Pictures it clearly didn't see any need in trying to pick up any continuity from the previous films.

His heart is taken to the coroner and starts beating again and for some reason the coroner decides to eat it and then - guess what - he becomes Jason. The movies also features a ...  Read the complete review

The "Friday The 13th" series, probably the most critically disliked films of all time. The tasteless gore, violence, and sex have caused these films to be called cinematic pieces of crap. But, in all seriousness, what Horror fan doesn't like this series? It might not be scary but it does have its fair share of gore and violence. Slasher movie fans don't look for a deep plot and character development; pruning shears through the eyes get the job done. With this, what was supposed to be "The Final Friday," "Jason Goes To Hell" was one of the better later entries into the series. It wasn't good in the art house sense but good in the ...  Read the complete review
