If Jason was already going, he should have taken all this footage with him., 2008-11-20
Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday (Adam Marcus, 1993) br / br /It pains me to admit that I didn't realize until about ten minutes into watching this piece of dreck that I'd already seen it. It's downright embarrassing to admit that after I realized this, I did, in fact, watch the remainder of the movie again. Why would I put myself through such horror again? Your guess is as good as mine. But I did. And since I did, I might as well review it. I can sum my review up in three words: "Oh, the humanity." But since three-word reviews are not looked upon kindly by those in the movie-buying community, I will take a few minutes to expand on my reaction. br / br /Plot: after an FBI sting, Jason (Kane Hodder) is finally taken down. Or is he? When he gets to the morgue (in pieces, of course), his heart begins beating again, and he possesses (by means of the movie's best scene, actually) the coroner working on him (Daddy Day Camp's Richard Gant). And thus begins Jason's newest talent-- travelling from body to body in order to get himself into a situation where he can be reborn. (If this sounds familiar, it is--this device was used to much greater effect in the 1998 movie Fallen.) Along the way, of course, are all the old tropes of the Friday the 13th movies that make them such a neocon's dream--if you use drugs or have premarital sex, you die. The difference here is that some of Jason's victims are actually premeditated. Then, of course, there's the big showdown, the two minutes where you get to believe Jason is really dead, and the final scene showing he isn't. (Or, in this case, finally giving the fans the hope that Freddy vs. Jason was actually going to get made, though it took ten years.) br / br /Everyone knows there hasn't been a good Friday the 13th movie since #2. For a while, they just kept getting dumber and dumber, but Jason Goes to Hell was a true nadir; even Jason X wasn't this completely awful. It's useless to go into the technical specs, since this series has set the baseline for bad acting, woeful direction, cinematography that ranges from campy to crappy, and taking itself way, way too seriously. But really, in the age of director's cut DVDs, you'd expect more of everything (no matter how bad it is) from an unrated Friday the 13th movie. It fails as cheesecake, it fails as a gore film, it fails as a horror movie, it just pain fails. * br / br /

If your a Jason fan....., 2008-11-18
First off I LOVE THE "FRIDAY THE 13th" FILMS!!, but as a movie fan this is BY FAR the WORST "Friday" film off them all, turning one of the most popular slashers of all time into what looks like one of the "ALIENS" after bursting through a chest and then having him switching from body to body ala "Invasion of the body snatchers" has to be ONE OF THE WORST IDEAS IN MOVIE HISTORY!! About the only thing that was semi enjoyable in the film was the end and I wont spoil it for you guys that havent seen it. I gave it 2 stars, one because the movie is watchable and the other because im a fan of the series. If your a collector of the "Friday" films its a no-brainer to get it to complete your collection. If you're looking for a good horror flick...STAY AAWWAAYYYY!!!

Jason Goes to Hell??? And he can {STAY} there, too!!!!!, 2008-10-28
My husband bought this horrid atrocity of a movie, from the $5.00 bin at Wal-Mart the other night...and, that's where he should've just {LEFT} it there. Now, personally I'm a huge fan of the classic Friday the 13th movie series - like {I-VI} - those are what I like, and what I remember. However, I was open to watching this w/my husband, the other night. I thought this movie to be the "Hostel" of the Friday the 13th movie series. Really. It was that GROSS and that AWFUL. As I had walked-out on Hostel, after 45 minutes of pure gut-wrenching horror, and turning away from the t.v. screen for more time than what I was actually watching, I got up and turned the dvd player off, and told my husband if he wanted to watch the rest of that gross movie, he could watch it in the back. So that's what he did. I was left w/that horrible image of that black man eating Jason's heart. That was just down-right gross. It was sooo gross, that I had to cover my kitty cat's eyes, when I was turning away. It was that nasty. Jason can GO TO HELL, and that's where he can stay.

The Final Friday....I Don't Think So, 2008-09-21
When released Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday closed out the Friday franchise perfectly. The film had a good cast, action sequcnes a nice sex scene and the black man lived until the end. Make sure you see this film in the unrated directors cut though. I don't know what they are thinking with Jason X though.
