Summary: Best 3D movie I've seen...Stands on its own without 3D
Review: Friday the 13th Part 3 is one of the best in the series. If you've seen the previous films, you know the story. The characters in this installment are better-developed and the performances by the principle actors are a little better. More emphasis is given to suspense and counter-attack. Yeah, some of the victims actually fight back. That is, if they see Jason coming. In this movie, Jason firmly establishes himself as the unstoppable Leviathon of terror and murder. More gore. Much higher body count. A couple of really good shocks. Definitley not for the squeamish unless they are well versed in anticipating when to turn their heads.Friday the 13th Part 3 was originally presented in 3D in theaters. My experience has been that almost all 3D movies, particularly in the modern era, are poor. Spacehunter, Jaws 3, etc. were all lousy. ( I haven't seen Spy Kids 3 yet) Anyway, these films could not stand on there own merit. They needed the gimmick of 3D to draw audiences. Friday the 13th Part 3 really didn't need the gimmick. As you will find out, this one is just as good (perhaps, better) without it. Typically, Paramount makes a poor effort at producing a DVD for this film like they have with others in the series. No frills other than a theatrical trailer are included. The picture quality is okay ( the change from 3D to 2D didn't make it worse than the others). Sound is good.

Summary: A good movie in the series
Review: After I had seen the second friday the 13th movie I didn't really want to see this because I really didn't like the second one. But I was saprised to find out that this is actually a pretty good movie. Evan though it has the same plot of almost all the friday the 13th movies(a group of teens open camp crystal lake and are all killed by Jason)it is really scary and fun to watch. The greatest thing about this movie was seeing Jason for the first time with his famouse hocky mask. All in all this is a good movie and one of the best in the series.

Summary: A notch better than the 2nd!
Review: This is the one where Jason gets his mask! Some teenagers are going to this place up in the woods to have a good time. They don't know that Jason is around and that he has also hacked up the owners of a Grocery Store! This was a fun film! I enjoyed the teens getting slaughtered! This one has better deaths then the 2nd!
Deaths: Threading pin through the head, meat cleaver to chest, machete through chest, pitchfork deaths, fire poker through stomach, and more!
If your a fan of the F13 series, then you must see this because its one of the best in the series!

Summary: yet another good sequel
Review: Friday the 13th part 3 originally was a 3-D film when it hit the theaters. I would have liked to have seen it in 3-D but none the less the movie is good. Come Part 3 you can pretty much figure out that there is no continuous story line. Well, that is somewhat typical of slasher films. Friday the 13th doesn't have a continuous story line until Part 4 (aka the Final Chapter). Anyway, on with the review. The two things I like about Part 3 is that it is short-to the point and Jason obtains the one thing that stuck with him for sequels to come...the hockey mask. Plus, viewers might be able to tell the scenes that were supposidly 3-D from the theatrical showing. I really liked the opening music to Part 3 and in my opinion another good theme song didn't come along for the series until Part 6.

Summary: VERY GOOD FOR A JASON MOVIE
Review: IN THIS ONE, JASON REGAINS CONCIOUSNESS AND CONTINUES HIS VIOLENT SPREE AT CAMP CRYSTAL LAKE. VERY ENJOYABLE MOVIE ON ALL LEVELS. THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST IN THE FRIDAY THE 13TH SERIES. THIS MOVIE WAS ORIGINALLY IN 3-D, BUT IN THE VIDEO AND DVD, JASON'T JUST HIS REGULAR TWO DIMENSIONAL SELF. GOOD MOVIE AND IT'S VERY THRILLING. WHAT ALSO MAKES THIS SO SPECIAL IS THAT JASON IS FINALLY SEEN IN HIS FAMOUS HOCKEY MASK. I'D RECCOMEND THIS TO ANY HORROR FAN.

Summary: Most Profitable 3-D movie Ever Released
Review: Although the DVD is not in 3-D it is still a must for horror movie fans to own. I was fortunate to see it in its original theatrical 3-D release. I remember the credits coming out at you in 3-D, I reached out to grab them (hey I was a kid) and grabbed the lady's hair sitting in front of me! Pardon me! In my opinion it is the best of the Jason movies. I did not enjoy another Jason movie after this one until Jason X was released. Not as effective minus the 3-D effects, but still can give you the heebie jeebies. I love the morbid disco theme song that plays over the opening credits. Some of the 3-D effects are too obvious, such as the snake that jumps out at the screen. You can see the string. I really didn't get the ending where Jason's mother pops up out of the water, but hey what part of the movie is realistic anyway? Nontheless, unless you are a total prude, this is a fun movie to watch at night with your sweetie all cuddled up under a cover :)
Also, as my title says, this is the biggest money making 3-D film in history. If you could see it in 3-D you would love it!

Summary: 3-D makes the movie
Review: I was fortunate enough to see this film in 3-D during the original release. The film itself is not that great, a basic retread of the other films and a really lame ending. The 3-D however turned the film into something special. It still is the best 3-D I have ever seen on screen and would love to be able to recapture that magic on DVD if at all possible. Many sequences in the film were enhanced by the inclusion of this process, most notably: the eye launching, the spear gun, and even the guys fist smashing through the VW window. Without the 3-D the movie is simply lacking what made it almost great. If you see it flat it is three stars, in 3-D, five.

Summary: My favorite one out of the whole series and 2nd best
Review: The first F13 movie will always be the best. F132 will always be 3rd best, but F13 Part 3 is and will always be 2nd best and my favorite one out of the whole series. Even though the same story takes place in this one, like in parts 1,2, & 4 I still love it. Not once did I hate a part of this film. I think the only thing new about this, is the killings, and this is the first time we get to see Jason sporting his classic hockey mask, and instead just a batch of teens, its also a biker gang that Jason polishes off. Of course, in every F13 movie, the teens always ignore all news headlines about the murders that happen at Camp Crystal Lake, and they decide to go there to have some high hormone sexual fun. What turns about to be fun turns about to be a painful worst nightmare. Jason kills each teen in a unique way and leaves them dangling around to surprise the next victim he's about to kill. Also, seeing Jason's face at the end is extremely gruesome, yuck! Overal F13 part 3 is a really cool horror movie, that you'll have fun with on a night with your girlfriend and friends.

Summary: So bad it's good
Review: Steve Miner, who directed the lackluster second installment of the Friday the 13th franchise, returned to the director's chair for this third installment, originally filmed in 3-D which would explain the never ending slew of eyeballs, pitchforks, harpoons, yo-yo's, popcorn, snakes, that are thrown directly in the viewer's direction. The acting is as crummy as crummy can be, but this installment offers the goods: good looking babes who get down and dirty, and some great blood and gore effects. This may feature some of the most brutal killings in the series until Jason Goes to Hell came along, but this installment is pivotal for one reason: Jason finally ditches his potato sack and dons the trademark hockey mask. All in all, Friday the 13th Part 3 is better than the preceding Part 2, and would set the stage for what I feel is the best film in the series: Friday the 13th Part 4: The Final Chapter.
