Summary: Not so bad at least Tommy Jarvis was in it
Review: Before I saw this movie I already knew Jason wasn't going to be in it. If I hadn't I would've have realized it until I saw the Jason imitator had two eyes. Jason's face has always changed but he's always had only one eye. I thought it was weird how he could get hit by a tractor and have his arm sliced and still be able to fight. I understood his motive but he should've taken his kid out of the pyscho home. Tommy Jarvis probably said less than ten words the entire movie. Jason was in it in a dream that Tommy had. The murder was the same as always but I liked it. It wasn't a bad movie but they're all the same. If you've seen one you've seen them all.

Summary: "New Beginning" gets off on the wrong foot
Review: "Friday the 13th Part V: A New Beginning" is much like Jason himself. A body with no soul. "Paramount Pictures" decided to keep going w/ this series after the 33 million dollars "The Final Chapter" raked in during the Spring of 1984. Not a good idea. Tommy Jarvis, still having nightmares about a certain pissed off goalie, is transferred to a boarding house for troubled teens. Once he arrives, the body count starts to rise & all fingers start to point to Tommy. What could have been a decent whodunnit is turned into a waste of the viewers' time (not that the first four were anything to right home about, either, but, at least those "Friday" films had much more suspense & if your going to have a "Friday the 13th" film, have Jason in the damn movie!). "Juwanna Man" himself, actor Miguel A. Nunez Jr., shows up as Demon, the gang leader who gets speared in the outhouse. Still want to see it? Didn't think so.

Summary: least favorite.
Review: This is my least favorite of the series as they deviate from the normal story, however its still a very nice addition to the series as its something "different". In this film Jason Is or Isn't killing people...you'll have to watch to find out! I find that this film is still full of the typical scares and jumps that the other films hold.

Summary: Friday the 13th Part V: A New Begining
Review: The murderous spirit of Jason Vorhees lives on in this horror sequel, although the plot hinges on the mystery of whether the killer's body actually survives. Opening with a nightmare prologue in which Corey Feldman reprises his role as Tommy Jarvis, the boy who killed Jason in the previous installment, the film jumps forward several years to when a teenaged Tommy (John Shepherd), haunted by visions of Jason returning to life, moves into a group home for mentally disturbed kids. Almost as soon as he arrives, Tommy witnesses the death of Joey (Dominick Brascia), an overweight, annoying boy who is hacked to death by psychopathic patient Vic (Mark Venturini). Although Vic ends up safely behind bars, other bodies begin to turn up -- more than 20 by the end of the film. Tommy's own violent streak, displayed when he lashes out at a fellow resident, makes him a suspect; he even doubts his own sanity. But as the bloodshed continues, Tommy finds himself allied with Reggie (Shavar Ross), the grandson of one of the home's employees, in a desperate bid to survive the carnage and find out who the killer behind the hockey mask really is. The producers of the Friday the 13th series actually planned to end it with Friday the 13th -- The Final Chapter, but the box-office success of that film paved the way for the series to continue.Review: A high body count, tight continuity with the previous installment, and a lingering mystery over the participation of perennial serial killer Jason Vorhees characterizes this episode of the interminable slasher series. As usual with entries in the franchise, however, the concept of Friday the 13th, Pt. 5: A New Beginning outstrips the execution. The idea of a film in which viewers are never sure whether Jason is even present is a novel one that dovetails nicely with the Jason-free first installment (wherein the monster's mother did all the dirty work). But with unsympathetic characters, flat direction, and a distinct lack of visual flair, the film fails to generate any appreciable suspense. The teens this time are troubled residents in a group home, and their picturesque tics are a nice change from the usual parade of interchangeable plaid-shirted counselors. Surprisingly effective comic relief even arrives in the form of Ethel (Carol Locatell), the group home's trashy, ornery neighbor. As Reggie, Shavar Ross also adds a welcome spot of cultural diversity to the cast, although his character's Prince-esque brother Demon (Miguel A. Nunez) is as cheesy a stereotype as the biker gang who crashed the party in Friday the 13th, Pt. 3.

Summary: LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR, OR FALL TO A SPIKY DEATH!
Review: This film gets attacked by 'fans' of the series because Jason wasn't in it. So? There is a high body count and everything. I love the deaths, though less inventive. The studio said Jason wouldn't be back and so they tried to keep their promise, but instead they brought him back because people wouldn't stop complaining. I don't care if Jason ain't in it. Freddy only got one official kill in Freddy Vs. Jason, but I still love it.

Summary: A fake.. Total disrespect for the viewer...
Review: Ok, we could understand the idea of someone impersonating Jason...... But doing he same things that Jason does, with THE SAME FORCE was a total disrespect and utterly dishonest to the audience. Jason can take the damage he does and kill with the power he does because he is SUPERNATURAL!! The human who replaced him could not have done half the things he did. Simple as that. I remember the feeling of betrayal I had after watching this movie...

Summary: The Saga Continues...
Review: Not a bad movie at all. The only thing that brings it down is the fact that Jason isn't in it. That's right, it's an impostor. But he does a good job of making you believe that it's really Jason! Tommy Jarvis, the boy who "killed" Jason in the previous movie, is all grown up now. He's sent to live in a mental institution (I think), because of what happened in the previous movie. Tommy is full of rage and totally goes off on anyone who makes him angry. And he keeps hallucinating, seeing Jason almost everywhere he goes.
And pretty soon, of course, people get murdered one by one. In the end, it's up to Tommy to save Pam from the nefarious Jason (this scene takes place in a barn that looks almost identical to the one used in part 3). Overall, this is definitely not the best of the series, but not the worst, either. Give it a chance.

Summary: What the hell is this?
Review: Why did they do this? The only reason I bought it is because it is part of the series. If you just like movies for the killing then you would probably like it. Just the fact that A person imitated Jason, man tnat sucked.

Summary: Pop Pop Fizz Fizz Oh What A Relief It Is
Review: Footnote: Official Actual Review: 0 stars (0 star rating) (Guzzling noises) (Gargling) (Belching) (Guzzling) Ahhhh....... Really it's rather interesting chum. Jason's back isn't that really really really.... really. Whoa I'm feeling kinda of dizzying here was it me or this fifth Jason movie. Um where was I? Oh yes Jason's back except he's tormenting the make-up artist pipsqueak from the last film. There's this mental health care prison facility. (Burp) Where they forcibly put you through detox and give you one of those vile nasty 12 step frog-hopping physicals down your throat. No (hiccup), I don't need flashbacks. So anyway (large burp), this make-up kid is having nightmares and sorts of nasty problems with the bottle, oh wait um. The kid who's now a teenager is a hotbed of resentment. (Falls off stool) Darn it, so the ghost or goblin or was it the spirit of a teamster, that right a teamster is going from place to place butcherig into some choice sirloin (guzzling) a bunch of teenagers. (Gagging) Wait are the butchering guild apart of the teamsters? Oh well so the make-up kid isn't any longer that Corey Feldman fellow (hiccup) is on the trail as the excitement doesn't seem to stop turning relentlessly. (Vomiting noise) I need some more Planters. So does the movie, it has plenty of nuts, cooks, and running scarred pansies as they all flee from the undead teamster and all of his contracts or whatever. They don't talk much (clearing throat) in this one, yet it was very easy to (guzzling) to follow and that does mean everything to me. As for the DVD edition option's on Danny Steinmann's teamster running amok from capitalism epic (falling off the stool) Friday the 13th: A New Beginning, it has a the... the theatrical mini cap edition of the movie (hiccup) and absolutely absolutely nothing else except blankness. P.S. The Black Screen at the end was the best part though. It just didn't move. Ahh... my foot's asleep.
