Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Married Baby Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

cyberman-38605 This movie is so freaking good. This movie takes what the previous movies did right and multiplies that by 10. Plus you get Corey Feldman and a ridiculous dance from Crispin Glover. This installment has fantastic kills that really bumps up the gore from the previous 3 movies and has much better characters. This entry also introduces Tommy Jarvis. The pacing is spot on and the ending is awesome. Jason is so bad ass in this as well. Way more menacing than the predecessors. Ted White did an excellent job. Not only is this a great Friday the 13th but it's also a kickass slasher. 10/10

Sam Panico Paramount - and producer Frank Mancuso, Jr. - were both aware that people were growing tired of slashers. In fact, Mancuso, Jr. began to hate the series because no one respected him for making the films, despite how much money they made. So the order was made: let's kill Jason.Directed by Joseph Zito, who also made the slasher classic The Prowler (a much bloodier, much more interesting move than this), an interesting attempt was made to get you to actually care about some of the characters. But not all, of course. There's always going to be cannon fodder in these films.The evening after the last film, Jason comes back to life and kills a coroner and a nurse before making his way back to Crystal Lake. And, de rigueur, more teenagers show up - Paul, Sara, Sam (Judie Aronson, American Ninja), Jimmy (Crispin Glover!), Doug (Peter Barton, Hell Night and TV's The Powers of Matthew Star) and Ted. They even Pamela Vorhees tombstone along the way.Oh yeah - then there's Trish (Kimberly Beck, Marnie), Tommy (Corey Feldman!), their mom (Joan Freeman, Panic in the Year Zero!) and their dog Gordon. And there are the skinny dipping teens, Tina and Terri. Oh yeah - and a young drifter named Rob with a secret.Tommy's family are the sympathetic characters mentioned earlier, with the kid being a stand-in for the beloved Tom Savini. He shows off his collection of special FX early and often.Of course, those teenagers all do drugs, have sex and die horribly. We're used to those things. But the murder of Tommy's mom has some emotion. And then we learn that Rob is the brother of Sandra from Friday the 13th Part 2 and has been obsessed with finding and killing Jason. Oh, he finds him, and dies like a complete fool, screaming "He's killing me!"The close, where Trish cuts off Jason's mask to reveal his face and Tommy has to flip out to hack Jason to death, was the stuff of legend in my pre-teen days, oft-discussed at lunches and study halls.Tom Savini returned here for the chance to kill off Jason, but come on, everyone. We all knew what was coming next.

Ilikehorrormovies I enjoy this alot more than the first and it's alot of fun! The death scenes are creative like always. You know the pros out weigh the cons like this is a must watch for FT13 fans. The story is great, the writting is flawless, the acting is convincing, good characters, and good pacing. Tommy Jarvis is the best character since Jason Voohress and his mother. The supense in this movie is great like you don't know who's gonna die or not. This is my reveiw on Friday The 13th: The Final Chapter (1984), it's the best out of the franchies!

Sean Lamberger After a brief diversion to clear out/escape from the nearest morgue, Jason returns from his machete-assisted hibernation to resume slicing and dicing the denizens of Crystal Lake. This time we shake up the formula a bit, introducing a relatively innocent single-parent family to the mix, though the vacationing kids across the street are more than happy to continue with the sex, drugs and rock'n'roll that's so familiar. It's a grab bag, really, a bunch of randomly-associated (or, often, not associated whatsoever) snippets that float around in the wash and occasionally bump into one another. I found it curious to spot a few name actors in the crowd this time: Crispin Glover is his usual awkward self and Corey Feldman plays the same mouthy, bratty kid you might expect given his early '80s stardom. Kevin Bacon's appearance in the first film may have set this stage, but it's still a little strange to see recognizable faces in the midst of such a transparent, genre-specific story, especially when one of them suddenly catches a grievous head wound near the climax. Every bit as indulgently gore-soaked, under-written and simple-minded as the previous chapter, with an even looser grasp on reality. It's roll-your-eyes bad, but not quite change-the-channel bad.
