Summary: Horror cornocopia - or however you spell that ...
Review: This movie is bad. Really bad. But most horror heads are into the whole bad acting thing. What made this film stand out for me are all the homages here, where to start:

The Hidden - they use elements from "The Hidden" to show how Jason jumps from body to body.

Halloween - they steal Myers origin and apply it to Jason (so to speak). Also, in one scene, the lead actress tells one of the inempt cops that she left her ex for dead, "just off the Myers house".

Tales From the Crypt - The box that held the Tazmanian devil is right there in the Vorhee's basement.

Evil Dead - The Book of the Dead is also an artifact to be found in the Vorhee's house.

Nightmare on Elm Street - Freddy's here - just wait and see.

There are other homages from Ghoulies to lord knows what. I enjoyed it though and you might want to rent before you buy.

Recommended.

Summary: Cool movie, a good creepy, gory end to the king of Slash
Review: ....Well not totally the end(Jason X)But Jason goes to hell if you can get past some of the holes in the story line, and hokeyness of it all, this my friends is a great horror film, its got the campy feel to it, the gore is there; especially if you watch the unrated version. There is an element of drama in this too. So basically here its is: Jason is back but the thing of it is that its the evil essense of jason going from one body to the next making his way back to Crystal Lake(..yes everything is explained in the beginning as to why this is.) There is a good subplot to this involving Jasons' sister (played by Erin Gray...remember her as Wilma from the Buck Rogers TV show?) and her daughter, who also has an infant daughter. (thats also one of the holes in the story line---Jason doesn't have a sister, Mom said so in the first Friday the 13th film) At any rate, there is also Bounty hunter Creighton Duke hunting down Jason for reward cash, who also seems to know all about moving from body to body, and how to eventually kill him.
For die hard fans of Jason himself, you only get to see the hockey mask wearing slasher twice in the movie. But the film itself is excellent good gore, and in my opinion good camera shots, cinematography and lighting. If you've seen all the other jason films up to this one, you already know enough about jason, what makes this movie fresh is the cast around the killer and what they do and the sacrifices they make by the end of the film. If you get this film....things to watch for the diner scene when the lights go out....any scene with Creighton duke in it is cool to watch, and of course the opening scene up to when the films starting credits begin....far out..I'd like to tell you how it ends but You need to see it for yourself.

Summary: one of the standouts of the series
Review: a weird story but just makes it all the more cooler. lots of gory stuff, altho cut out of the r-rated versions.. if you are lucky like me you can pick up the unrated director's cut.

you won't like this or any of the friday the 13th movies if you like to watch [movies] like 'scream' and think it's a good movie.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Good movie...GOOD 'N' CORNY!
Review: I just saw it on Showtime 2...I'm glad I didn't pay for it. I haven't seen any of the others in the series, but if I had to compare Jason Voorhees to Micheal Myers, Micheal slashes Jason out of Crystal Lake 10 times over. The Curse of Thorn was more believable than a killer's heart looking for the right host. And what about that last scene...Freddy's hand pops up and grabs Jason's mask...CHEESY.

Even the hacked up Joe Chappelle version of Halloween 6 was better than this.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: why can't I rate this a 0
Review: this movie totally blows.I like all the rest of the friday the 13th movies but this one I rather watch one of those dull Julia Roberts films then this.Jason only appears at the beginning and he possesses souls through out the movie.the only good part is that cute girl having sex in the tent and when Jason steps on the rubber outside the tent.this film I guess took 8.00 to make so don't buy this hunk of garbage

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A good ending to the Jason Voorhees legacy!
Review: I am a huge fan of all the Jason movies. This one was full of some real surprises. I like the idea that they came up with for killing Jason in this one. It was very clever. I saw this movie when it was released in '93 and I still find it entertaining. The movie's storyline was kind of bleak because I wanted to see Jason with the hockey mask rather than the idea of him jumping from body to body. I also saw Jason X when it came out and it was okay. So this movie has some truly unforgettable scenes but it could have had a better storyline I think.

Summary: UNRATED VERSION! just waited a while for dvd
Review: This quite dire entry of the friday the 13th film when it first arrived did seem dull and a slap to the faces of all friday fans, with the lack of Hockey-mask Jason Vorhee's and the extreme lack of gore the film seems quite forgotten. Years ago i got a copy off the unrated laserdisc, and i got to review it again after its initial let down. WHY THE HELL DID I HATE IT, it's slick, the beginning and ending with Jason also stunning, it's well directed and acted and aside potholes (with a story about an inner demon crawling beteen bodies is bound to have a few) the script is pretty good, but the extra gore... those teens shahgging in the tent, well she is split in half front on view and there is nasty haead crushings and arm splittings all over the top gore with top special effects. now if anyone cares go hunt down VERSUS by ryuhei Kitamura cause it is the best gorefest since The Convent (which wasn't all that gory but did kick ass)! get this dvd if you just wanted more gore for jason, wish "family" paramount would release the others uncut, oh and jason X is great on DVD looks so better thabn even at the cinema you can get it in spain if you are impatient.

Rating: 4 stars
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.
