FRIDAY THE 13th review


Something has to be addressed, this is not a remake of "Friday the 13th", this is a remake of "Friday the 13th parts 2 & 3 mixed". Now you maybe are asking yourself, whats the difference? Well for one JASON'S MOM IS THE KILLER IN FRIDAY THE 13TH, JASON DOSENT EVEN SHOW UP UNTIL PART 2 AND EVEN THEN HE DOSENT HAVE THE HOCKEY MASK UNTIL PART 3, SO WHAT THE FUCK, DID THEY JUST MELT STORYLINES? Why would it be so damn hard to keep Jasons mom the killer and make an actual remake of Friday the 13th. Are people so jaded that they would just go balistic if they saw a damn Friday the 13th without a Hockey Mask. Apparently so, and since this movie is rakeing in the money there is no doubt going to be a sequel, which is probably going to be called "FRIDAY THE 13th PART 2"... well isnt it confusing enough, now if someone comes up to you and says "Hey, I saw Friday the 13th yesterday" you gotta ask "Which one, the original or the 2nd one, well not the 2nd one like part two, second one like the 2009 remake." Its a fuckin hassle. But now to the actual review, there are no likeable characters in this movie, nobody, every one is just an asshole who begs for apocolypse. That is except for Jason, he's the one you root for to kill all the assholes. Did I mention theres only one black guy? Anyway about the kills, well, their brutal which is to a good job by the sound effects, but their not very interesting, and almost every kill is done by a machete which gets old, your not going to see Jason throw a lightning rod through someones leg and than lightning strikes that guy... that'd be sweet if that happned, maybe they can put it in the sequel. Some of the dialogue is horrendous but some of its funny. But the difference is that Jason actually plays games and trys to scare his victems before he goes in for the kill, its really interesting and makes Jason just a little more of a complex character. This should only be seen by fans of the Jason franchize, any other people than that arnt probably going to like it.

FINAL VERDICT: Skip it
