Is it the producers playing it safe? I know these films were blasted by the MPAA in the '80s, but it seems they're (MPAA) a lot more tolerant these days, so why not take advantage of that and do a Friday the 13th right? That was one of my problems with the remake, it lacked original and brutal kills. Obviously the "SAW" movies employ inventive traps to maim its victims, but Jason was brutal and the aftermath of his kills should have showed more brutality IMHO. Just look ar Pirahna 3D, GORY!!! I guess it's okay if it's creature violence. Whatever. How come the many “SAW” sequels are gory, but the new Friday the 13th skimps on the gore? Is it the producers playing it safe?

It's like they sit there and say "I know these people came to see a gory horror film, but this is way too gory!" This isn't Steel Magnolias, its Friday the 13th!!! Leave it alone!

My first thought was OMG this is going to be sweet!!! But then seeing the R rated version in the theatre, I was beyond disappointed. Luckily the unrated version hit VHS a year later, and then I got to see that kill the way it was meant to be seen. As far as Im concerned, the R rated version doesnt exsist anymore in My mind. KNB did some really kick ass effects in JGTH, with the unrated version You see alot more of their work.

Jason stamps it into the ground then kills them. Seems like a good advert for contraceptives. I think it’s interesting that they were going to use a condom then decided to throw it away.

By far and away THE BEST visual effect in ANY of the films to date. Sure the other kills were awesome, but none of them even came close to this one. Once this DVD gets popped in, I go to this scene right away. Then I watch the whole thing all over again. This is a true masterpiece of Special Effects, and the only way they could have made it better would have been to include the work of Tom Savini with it. Otherwise, it was, is, and will always be the best kill in the series... PERIOD. Just one Jason fans opinion. No arguments here. By far and away THE BEST visual effect in ANY of the films to date.
