Summary: Such a waste, such a disappointing DVD
Review: Since most comments of the movie have been made I'll stick to commenting on this DVD. F13 Part VII: The New Blood is my fave Friday the 13th movie thanks to the strong supernatural elements and a jazzed up score from Harry Manfredini and Fred Mollin. I looked forward to this DVD, I was let down tremendously.Director John Carl Buechler was horrified when the MPAA made him chop his film up worse than Jason ever could and censor almost every spot of blood. This changed the film from a strong and effective horror to a tedious assembly of teens getting killed. Horror films are supposed to offend and upset. In horror you have the capability to provoke a very wide variety of emotions from your audience. Even if the source material is rather weak, if pulled off correctly you can entertain them in such a way that they'll babble about the movie for weeks and perhaps never forget it. This is exactly what John Carl Buechler did with this movie. Sadly no audience was to be exposed to his make-up genius or copious gore. The movie was wasted. Or, in his own words, castrated. I couldn't agree more. Buechler approached Paramount with his own cut of the film, many deleted scenes and a wealth of extra material and proposed a special edition DVD. Paramount flat out said 'NO' even tho Buechler offered to work on the DVD for free. Knowing that there were MANY fans out there who feel the same way about the movie Buechler set up a petition and got thousands of signatures begging Paramount to release Part VII as a Special Edition. Still, there answer was, flat out, 'NO'. And now that this DVD has been released what extra features does it have? None. Even after all this and all the begging Paramount didn't even give us a trailer. Something they were 'kind' enough to give Parts 1-6. I see no reason to buy this unless you have submitted your VHS copy and need the DVD. Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood is anamorphically enhanced at 1.78:1 and has a remastered Dolby 5.1 soundtrack made from the original Ultra Stereo recordings. Unfortunately, it's not a good 5.1 track with hardly any .1LFE use or surround use.

Review: This is a pretty good Friday movie. Its one of my fav's! If youre a fan of this type of horror movie or Jason flix in general, then you should definately check this one out. Its a 4 star Jason movie, but not a 4 star horro movie ... so if youre a fan of the series buy this ... if not its still worth renting.

Summary: One of the best of the series
Review: As a fan of the entire Friday the 13th series, I will say that this one is up there as one of the best. First off, this entry has Kane Hodder's debut as Jason, making him "unofficially" known as the "one true Jason," playing him for the rest of the series until Jason X. He has great body language, even with the little touches, like raising and lowering his shoulders when Jason is angry. This one also has, in my opinion, one of the best kills, before Jason X, in the cult-loving sleeping bag kill. The make-up effects are great, as Jason looks like he belongs in the pages of an EC Comics "Tales From the Crypt" comic,with his spine and knee caps exposed. There is a couple downsides to this film, one being the plot. Yes, it is kind of cheesy that the heroine has telekenesis to help her against Jason. The second downside isn't at the fault of the movie. It is due to the MPAA editing the gore out of this movie severly. But aside from that, one can enjoy this movie as Kane hodder's debut as the undying Mass murderer we all know. So sit back and enjoy this one. Good kills, good make up effects, and Kane Hodder. How can we go wrong?

Summary: I know........Star Mummy!!!
Review: I don't have much more to say about this one that other reviewers haven't already said. It's the typical Jason deal with the "twist" we all know about. That's a hoot though because she uses her powers for the most moronic things. Like what? Like making tree branches attack Jason! If she's that creative, then you'd think she could be a bit logical. Oh, no; The movie would be over too soon if she did that. This isn't one of the best, but this one has the best looking Jason though. He looks great in this one, quite frightening(then he'd go on to grow skin and look like Sloth from The Goonies in part 8, and almost totally regenerate in Jason X). Another gem is to see Bernie from Weekend At Bernie's as the schmuck doctor. This one also has(coming in a close second to part 8) the stupidest "death" of Jason. Who thought that was a good idea? Who thought the audience would buy that? You can also tell by this point the MPAA started to get more involved in the series because the violence looks trimmed pretty heavily. It's not nearly as graphic as earlier films in the series. It's an enjoyable installment though, no sillier than the rest(with the exception of the ending, but that's all part of it's MST3K appeal).

Summary: One of the best in the series
Review: I am a big time fan of all the FRIDAY THE 13TH movies, and this one is at the top of the list. First off, it introduces Kane Hodder as Jason, the only man who can play him and make him look menacing. This guy has great body language, especially when he's breathing heavy, lifitng his shoulders. The make-up effects are top-notch, making Jason look like he belongs in the pages of an EC Comics "Tales From the Crypt" comic.This movie has perhaps the best kill, before JASON X came out, with the cult-loving sleeping bag kill. Even though the plot is kind of cheesy, with the main character having telekenisis to use to fight Jason, I was able to look past that. Instead of picking apart the movie, just sit back and enjoy some excellent death scenes, awesome make-up effects, and Kane Hodder's FRIDAY THE 13TH debut as Jason, making him into the unstoppable killing machine we all know.

Summary: Kane Hodder is...Jason !
Review: This is my favorite out of the sequels, it has the best Jason make up ever. Jason looks better in this movie than he ever has in any of the other movies. I agree that when i watch this movie it feels like i'm watching the edited tv version. Matter of fac the only problem i can find with this sequel is the ending, which i haven't seen a single reviewer mention. Her father coming up at the end and grabbing jason after all those years. They would have pulledhis body out of the lake when it happened.
I know it's a "movie" but the ending still bugs a little. Kane Hodder is the best Jason hands down, and no one has ever played Jason better. This is my personal favorite of all the friday films. One of the things i like about Kane Hodder and this movie is that Jason kills with a sense of humor and respect, he respects Tina fighting back, so it seems, like if she's a real challenge for him. There's a great scene in the end of Jason goes to Hell that shows what i mean when Jaon doesn't kill the guy right away, but the guy tries to hit him with a shovel and he grabs it from him and just "taps him with it, it's too funny and only Kane Hodder would do something like that. Great movie, i'll be waiting for "uncut" edition

Summary: Garbage
Review: There are many problems with this movie. Jason, despite being the most famouse slasher out there, had some seriouse weak films in his resume. This is one of those films.
This movie is about a Girl named Tina (Hmm, I wonder what movie she came from) who has telekenetic powers (I wonder where she got those from) that she inadvertedly used to kill her father in the begining of the film. She returns ten years later to complete her therepy at the scene of the accident. The doctor is a [jerk]and basically wants to exploit her powers. Meanwhile next door a set of teens (about ten of them) are getting ready to throw a surprise party for a friend (who never shows up, hmmm I wonder why).She gets pissy one night and accidenaly resurects Jason (after Tommy went through all the trouble to bury him at the bottom of the lake). Within a matter of minutes he systematically slaughters a few kids on the side of the road and two more "getting it on" in a tent. This moment provids a fan favorite, the sleeping bag into the tree bit (whoopdy doo). This movie continues the same procedure, most teens "Getting it on" and the typical skinny dipping death. What seperates this one from the others (beside Kane Hodder making his Jason debute) is the fact that in the last ten to fifteen minute face off Jason is not wearing his mask. Despite that this movie just goes to show how little Paramount actually cared about the series. It was a good thing that New line purchased the series because the later result was Jason X.

Summary: Best sequel after part 4 final chapter
Review: But the kills were cut and it feels like your watching a tv edited version when it is the theatrical version. Jason's face is killer in this one. This is the last good sequel until Jason X. Part 8 and 9 the Final Friday were complete junk!!!
