Summary: Kinda Cheesy but Ok
Review: I cant say this is a superb must see movie. but it certinly had one hell of a suprise in the ending! Unless someone has spoiled it already, I wont ruein it for you... altho if you dont know by now, then what rock did you just crawl out from under where youve been isolated for 11 years? The film kicks off with Jason just back in buisness! No explination as to how he has returned from New York but who wants to worry about those details? go to fridaythe13thfilms.com if you wanna debate about it! Jasons back and in crystal lake stalking down his latest victom, this movie shows Jason has been all mutalated and almost mutant looking from all the toxic waste that we thought killed him in the last movie (Jason Goes To Manhatten for 15 Minutes) Jason unexpectly runs into a bit of a sticky situation, as it seems the whole army is there stop him, and they blow him to smitherines! Jasons body is blown into peices.... but thats not how you kill him! Jasons spirit type demon keeps jumping into body to body and the only way Jason can truley be reborn is to be posses another blood relative of the Voorhees fammily! Along the way you get your typical misterious know it all to explain the plot but not explain how the hell he knows about it? and a few new twists in the Voorhees legacy! Will Jason be able to reserect himself? I'd say wait and see....but the fact that there beens 1 and a hlaf seaqulls since this, you should be able to put two and two together! For the F13th fans this movie was the first for NEW LINE CINIMA and they really wanted to change the story of the typical F13th plot of just a slasher who kills campers, and they have succeeded in doing that with this intresting change of average plot and new Ideas! A bit of corney acting here and there, but does anyone really ever watch a horror movie expecting an acadamey award winning effort? I dont think so? If your into the Jason legacy or slasher films, this ones one you have to see! As for buying it? I'd recomend renting first before you decide on that!

Summary: Stupid, but fun to watch..
Review: Jason goes to hell The final Friday, the supposed last in the series(well they lied, Jason X is coming up)is one of the better in the series but is still very dumb. The movie starts off with big ol' Jason gettin blown to pieces in some kind of police ambush. So Jasons spirit takes over a doctor now, (who was studying jasons remains and eats his heart,for some reason)and now all of a sudden jason has a nice new body and so he heads home to do battle with his sister. But this wont be easy for jason as he will have to get by Creighton Duke, a bounty hunter who wants to send jason to hell, but he will need the help of jessica(who is related to jason all-of-a-sudden) as she is the only one who can really kill jason and put him away for good. The movie has a really fun conclusion as we get to see jason go to hell( or at least until Jason X like i said). But nonetheless it is an improvement over part 8 which was really screwed up..

Summary: Still a better movie overall than past F13 films.
Review: Let's get one thing straight: In Jason Goes to Hell, Jason does NOT go to hell until the very end of the movie. Unless you mean, "blown to hell," in which case he's blown to hell right at the beginning of the film. And that's sort of a summary of how Jason fans feel about this movie. You either love it for what it is, or hate it for what it tried to be. The ninth in the series of Friday the 13th movies, this movie tries to explain why Jason's an unstoppable killing machine. Apparently, a weird little two-legged demon lives in his heart, making him unstoppable. Jason is finally caught in a trap by the FBI, who use a female decoy to lure him into an ambush. The FBI blows him to pieces. The End. Well, not quite. The coroner examining Jason's remains is suddenly possessed by a strange urge to eat Jason's heart. That puts the demon into Mr. Coroner, who goes on a killing spree. He has but one goal: to reenter the body of another Voorhees. And Jason's sister is the first target. "Through a Voorhees was he born... through a Voorhees may he be reborn... and only by the hands of a Voorhees will he die." What, you didn't know Jason had a sister (played by Erin Gray)? Surprise! And his sister had a daughter. And her daughter has a baby too, which ups the stakes. This is perhaps the only movie to feature Jason the least, because, well he's just not Jason if he's not wearing a hockey mask and wielding a machete. Instead, this movie turns into a zombie flick. There are other characters of little consequence, but some are entertaining. The town of Crystal Lake has definitely gotten used to Jason being around - one diner makes Jason-style hamburgers and everything on the menu has something to do with the renowned serial killer. There's also Creighton Duke, played by Steven Williams. He's a bounty hunter who is hell-bent on destroying Jason. Why? Well, we're never given his motivation, although the audio commentary explains that Jason killed his girlfriend at Crystal Lake. Trust me, it doesn't impact the plot much either way. As Jason hops from body to body, Steven Freeman, father of Jessica Kimble's baby, risks life and limb to protect her. The climactic battle comes to a head at the Voorhees home, where the Necronomicon Ex Mortis from Army of Darkness shows up. Why? Because the producers thought it would be cool. When Jessica grabs what looks like an ordinary knife, it transforms into the spinal dagger from Evil Dead. Why? Because the producers thought it would be cool. Jason eventually does get his body back, by hopping into the corpse of his dead sister, Diana Kimble. So it's up to Jessica and Steven to fight Jason to the death. Why? Because the producers thought - you get the idea. This movie is a fan film. The producers were 23 years old at the time. The movie strives too hard to be original and only half succeeds, but it's a testament to how awful some of the other Friday the 13th movies were that it is still a better movie overall. Listening to the commentary, it's obvious that once the franchise moved to New Line they were giving it to any punk who was willing to direct it. Ironically, this gave the movie a huge amount of freedom and latitude to be very daring in a way a more revered franchise could never be. And of course, that freedom gave us the ultimate joke: Freddy Kreuger's clawed hand pulling Jason's mask down into hell. As the producers explained, it was a gag. They figured it was possible to have both villains face off since New Line owned the rights to both Jason and Freddy, but there were never any plans to film a movie between the two titans. Once that scene played, however, Freddy vs. Jason became a possibility. So we owe it to a couple of kids for planting the seed that would eventually germinate into the superior Freddy vs. Jason flick. They get props from me for having the balls to stick into their movie. That, and the fact that two props from Evil Dead are in it.

Summary: Surprisingly good
Review: The last regular Friday the 13th movie (I don't count Jason X) had some good acting. In the begging of the movie it is gross. You see Jason's heart and blood which is black and a man eats the heart. eeww...but later it was awesome!

Summary: "A decent ending to the saga, extreme lack of Jason..."
Review: While not as good as the previous Friday the 13th films, "Jason Goes to Hell" is a good ending to the series, but after all, this wasn't the ending because "Jason X" has been in and out of theatres already and "Freddy vs. Jason" is being made as you read this. John D. LeMay did a good job as Steven, as did Kari Keegan as Jessica, and the supporting cast including Allison Smith, Steven Williams, and Erin Gray (Jason's sister, Diana) helped push the movie along and kept me from getting bored out of my mind. And last but not least, the spectacular Kane Hodder returns to reprise his role as the unstoppable killing machine, Jason Voorhees. There was also a little bit of humor here, as is the same with every other F-13 movie. Now for the minus, the only thing wrong was the extreme shortage of Jason appearances. I mean, he appears twice in his hockey-masked stage (at the beginning and the end) and for the rest of the movie he was a little creature crawling from body to body. So basically, you've got a little creature that is actually Jason, who is crawling in and out of people's bodies, and he takes control over whoever he crawls into, and anybody that he's been in dies after he leaves. And so, Jason has quite the advantage here, but as you know, he is always outsmarted. Creighton Duke (Steven Williams), who is supposed to be a bounty hunter that tracks down serial killers, was a unique addition to the Jason series, and most of the hockey-masked freakazoid slasher's origin is revealed. The scene where Jason actually went to Hell could have been better, though. In conclusion, "Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday" is a nice ending to the saga, but there's not enough Jason. So, I would recommend renting it first, then if you like it, buy it.

Summary: Great flick
Review: "Jason Goes to Hell" takes a pleasant turn from cheesy slasher genre horror to an action movie. Starting off with an ultra-cool scene where a special FBI team blows Jason apart with bombs and machine guns, "The Final Friday" proves itself to be a worthy flick. The plot is relatively simple (I think it's been done before, but what the hell): Jason's body is gone so his soul goes into others' bodies and they turn into him. Like I said...simple.
There are a few parts where I was disappointed: I paid 7.50 to see this movie entitled "JASON Goes to Hell"...yet Jason was in the movie for a maximum of ten minutes. I was cheering with joy when the big lug came onscreen with his machete in the first few minutes, and I was cheering again when he returned at the end.
Jason seems to have lost his superhuman strength, as well: I mean, what the hell? Jason could have snapped that guy in half at the end but instead just toys around with him by whacking him a few times with a stick and a shovel (you'll see what I mean when you watch it).
There are a few plot holes, too: are we really supposed to believe that Jason has been body-hopping for all this time? (Though that might explain what happened to Paul in Friday the Thirteenth Part 2).
Something that really actually pleased me when I bought the DVD was the gore factor! Check out the unrated version and see what REALLY happens to the girl in the tent. Instead of just a little spray of blood, the Coroner impales her and rips her in half vertically.
I was also really pleased with the actors and actresses: Steven Williams was PERFECT for the role as Creighton Duke! I love that guy! He's funny, creepy, and awesome all at the same time. John De LeMay as Steven was great, too: he did well as the unlikely hero. And, as always, Kane Hodder did his thing as Jason Voorhees (for what little screen time he had).
Some memorable scenes include the police station scene, the diner shootout, and, naturally, as our generation of movie-loving people has come to call "the last 20 minutes".
My personal favorite part was the "finger-breaking scene" where Duke is giving Steven information for a "high-price" where he breaks Steven's fingers. "OH JEEZ!" That or when Steven shoots Robert in the head and all his black blood-brains splatter the wall.
Oh, yes, and about that gore factor? Watch the scene where Josh melts (yeah, you heard me). Bloodpuppies won't be disappointed.
All and all I was very, very, very pleased with "Jason Goes to Hell". So grab some beer, some food, and some buddies, turn off the lights, and watch an action movie with laughs, gore, good T&A (meow for Kathryn Atwood!), and a machete.
Later skaters! Enjoy!

Summary: Jason Goes to Hell - The Final Friday
Review: I'm extremely suprised that this film wasn't half bad.Ok sure the characters weren't memorable and the dialogue wasn't great, but I thought the whole possession thing was kinda interesting.Even though Jason wasn't in the whole film it was still interesting.(SPOILERS)One scene I liked was the part when the man started breaking that boy's fingers before he would tell him any info.I also like the whole backstory about Jason only being able to be killed by a Voorhees or brought back by one.My most favorite part was the ending.(SPOILERS)Freddy's claw coming up and grabbing Jason's mask.It was great!You may not like it as much if your an average viewer, but check this one out.Supposedly the last of Jason's gore-fests as he writhes in hellfire facing the long legacy of murder splattering his resume.(6/10)

Summary: Horrible sequel what were they thinking
Review: How could anyone think that Jason was dead. That killer in it was smart in saying he's not but what makes the world think he can stop Jason. I was really disappointed with this one even though my standards for Friday movies are extremely low. I really only watched this for the end part when Freddy's hand pulls Jason into hell and belive me it wasn't worth it one bit. Another horrible thing about this movie was it's cast. That fat diner owner was so stupid with the whole Vorhees Birger and Jason fries. When Jason came in there I was so happy when all of them were killed. This one was really disappointed when I saw this and it isn't even worht the two star rating I gave it.

Summary: Good Idea, Bad Movie
Review: The concept that the movie was trying to go after was definately a good one. However, as usual, the whole movie was a huge bomb. There could of been so much more to the storyline and the acting could of been so much better.
