Summary: the best
Review: this one is one of the best in the series, a great one to look for, but the base is kind of weak(meaning that it doesn't explain that well who jason is).

Summary: One of the best of the series
Review: For F13 lovers, part 7 is one of the better installments of the series. Decent characters, decent plot, with some humor mixed in. Also some great effects - Jason looks perfect in this film! The scene where he emerges from the lake, and you can see some bones in his back, is a classic. This is what a Friday the 13th flick should be. Too bad the series took a turn for the worse with parts 8 & 9.

Summary: Another wonderful Friday
Review: Another great Friday the 13th-sequel, in fact it's my favorite besides The Final Chapter and Jason Lives. It's not extremely gory, but the make-up F/X are excellent. If you expected a disappointment after the absolutely brilliant Part VI, you were wrong. This one features a pretty good cast (Terry Kiser from Weekend at Bernie's I+II is great!), and the definitely best teenie characters from all the Friday-movies. I just hope there will soon be an unrated director's cut on video.

Summary: Though it does not redeem part five.
Review: Though it does not redeem part five of this nine-part (soon to be ten-part) series this is one of the more original of the films. Its very easy to say its a waste of time without seeing the previous films. Without reviewing parts 1-4, this looks something like a another pointless Hammer Film without such big names as Peter Cushing, but if you're a fan of the Friday the 13th serials, than this is probably one of your favorites. Whereas the other films seem to be repetition of the same characters, with different names, this film actually has a plot. And unlike parts 1-5, this one actually has fairly good looking make-up. Its not the goriest of the films. I don't think that Friday the 13th even picked up its pointless violence title until it was sold to New Line and "The Final Friday" was released. What a flop that was. No, this is definitely one of the better of the "Friday" films. This film, I think, saved the serial, which was a hard thing to do after "The New Beginning" (F13 Part Five).The bottom line is, if you collect these sort of films you should get this one. I think this is much closer to most Wes Craven films like "Wishmaster" and "The Serpent and the Rainbow" than the other films. And after all, the first F13 might've been what inspired Wes Craven's "Nightmare on Elm Street".

Summary: Utterly dreadful
Review: With little showing of gory effects because of an MPAA crackdown on movie violence and a paper-thin story, Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood has absolutely no redeeming qualities and is incredibly boring. Sadly, the acting of Lar Park Lincoln as telekenetic heroine Tina, Susan Blu as her agitated mother, and Terry Kiser as her conniving psychiatrist is very nicely done, but can't hold up the rest of the movie no matter how hard it tries. A useless installment that should be avoided. END

Summary: Less gore = less fun...Please release uncut versions!
Review: Make-up & special effects man John Carl Buechler directed this 7th entry to the Friday the 13th series coming right on the heels of that '86 masterpiece, Troll. This is the one where Jason is still at the bottom of Crystal Lake chained to a big rock until the girl with telekenetic powers revives him by accident. This is a decent entry as far as they go, but the gore factor is weak for a Jason film. Maybe its because this is an edited version of the film, but Jason's kills are even less creative. At one point he throws a girl out a window...thats it! You get the feeling that money was trying to be saved in this one, which doesn't make sense considering the money this series pulls in. I've heard there are uncut versions of these films so viewing this film with all gore intact might have great effect. There are rumors of a box set possibly in 2004 so I'm waiting for that. Hopefully they will be uncut versions of all the films because thats what the fans want. As for "New Blood" as a film, its still fun, the only thing that makes it different from other entries is the battle between Jason and Tina the girl who can move objects with her mind. Jason is also unmasked and visible at great lengths in the conclusion which is good and bad. Kane Hodder does a great job, in this his first of 4 films as Jason. Still the edits make it kind of lame, reducing gore which is kind of the whole point.

Summary: Looks like the same OLD blood to me...
Review: Good God... what am I doing to myself by watching this nonsense?! I mean, really-is this 'blood' really all that new?! Looks pretty much like the same stuff I've seen in the past six go-rounds. You know, stuff like:- The opening sequence that refers to the events of the past sequels, thereby giving the viewer a quick update before the opening credits roll, - A group of teenage-to-early-twenty-something types who you know are doomed from the get-go, - A deadly skinny-dip scene, - Several kills that reflect the 'Friday' franchise's philosophy of Sex and/or illicit substance use leading to the deaths of the people partaking in such activities, - Jason tryin' out an array of various hand tools on his victims, as well as other items of convenience (including tent stakes, a motorized weed-whacker, and even a party-favor horn), - An overall lack of genuine scariness, with most of the kills generating more laughs and groans of disappointment than screams of fright. - Yadda-yadda-yadda and so on and so forth. But what's a re-hash without a sad attempt at injecting a little freshness into the mix? That's where our psychokinetically-gifted heroine and her manipulative therapist comes in. Of course, the whole head-case deal was done to death (so to speak) in Part V, but this time the protagonist can actually manipulate stuff with the power of her mind! Which she does of course in the final face-off against undead Jason, which culminates in quite possibly the most illogical and nonsensical ending a 'Friday' flick's been saddled with! Man, was that (anti)climactic moment sad. 'Course, it's not quite as sad as my decision to check out Part VIII! I'm SICK I tell you! SICK!!! On the upside, the crew did some pretty good make-up appliance effects on Jason here. Ya got'cher exposed bones, rotted-looking flesh, the works. He'd have been right at home in those 'Living Dead' flicks, lemme tells ya... 'Late

Summary: Rather boring installment...(* 1/2)
Review: Am I the only one who enjoys slasher flicks AND hates this film? Part 7 is just boring. None of the "Friday..." movies are actually GOOD, but most of them are at least entertaining! The only good thing I can say about this installment was that Tina was a nice charector, and is one of my favorite "main girl"s in the series.

Summary: One of the best Friday the 13ths
Review: "Friday the 13th Part 7 - The New Blood" is definitely one of the top 3 movies of the series if you ask me. Years ago, a young Tina got mad at her father and wished that he was dead after he hit her mom. Somehow, that brought Jason back to life and he killed her father. Now Tina is a teenager and she has telekinetic powers, and she's hurt over her dad being dead. She can see things before they happen and she can move and control objects by concentrating on them. She has to deal with a not so trustworthy doctor who tricks her and doesn't seem to believe her story about Jason. Tina must find a way to use her special powers to overcome Jason Voorhees before he kills everybody around the area of Crystal Lake, including herself. "Friday the 13th Part 7 - The New Blood" is great because it is real interesting from the start, and it has great acting. In this sequel, Jason Voorhees is more relentless as a killer than he has been in the past 6 movies. It just seems he won't give up and that nothing will kill him, and that's another thing that really makes this movie stand out from the previous 6 movies in the series. If you like the other Friday the 13th movies, or great slash'em up horror flicks, I definitely recommend getting this one.
