Letterboxd – ObsessiveViewer- Friday the 13th, 2009 - ★★★ October 24, 2020Much, much better than I expected it to be. It's a good palate cleanser after a couple of the other later Friday movies. The violence and gore effects were good. The kills were pretty inventive and (aside from some nearly incomprehensible quick cutting action) executed well.I didn't like the sort of "humanity" the movie gives Jason. He wo […]
- Freddy vs. Jason, 2003 - ★★★ October 23, 2020Surprisingly not bad. I really like the way the movie incorporates both legends. I kind of wish it did more to expand Freddy's use of Jason to help bring him (Freddy) back into his victims' consciousness.The movie has plenty of super fun gore effects and some cool kills throughout it. The fighting between J-man and Fred-dog (I'm sorry) is fun […]
- Jason X, 2001 - ★½ October 23, 2020It's kind of insane to me how much of this movie actually kind of worked for me. The early 2000s low budget Syfy original movie aesthetic was kind of charming in some instances and Jason's first kill on the ship is really cool.It tried to return the franchise to its cheesy fun roots but ultimately doesn't really stick the "fun" part […]
- Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday, 1993 - ★½ October 22, 2020Yikes. So I watched the unrated cut and, to its credit, there is some really good gore and body horror effects work in this movie.But that's about all this movie has going for it. It's a Friday the 13th movie in name only, which isn't even the case since New Line didn't have the rights to the name, apparently. So I've commended Frida […]
- Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan, 1989 - ★★½ October 21, 2020Not nearly the dumpster fire I was expecting it to be. Jason looks cool and the ship setting followed by Manhattan setting are surprisingly nice changes of pace for the series. Decent enough characters with none that are overtly terrible as in previous installments.
- Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood, 1988 - ★★★ October 21, 2020Now it's time for Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood. In other words, I thought the franchise was heating up before but now it's about to get.........Hodder. Kane Hodder is a much more imposing and threatening Jason.The New Blood isn't as good as Jason Lives. But it's an interesting expansion of the supernatural stuff in the previous […]
