Not all the movies are cliched. Look at “The New Blood”. Jason verus Tine with Telekinesis! That was very original for a Jason flick. Even Jason X was a good attempt to try something very different, The only reason Jason X bombed is because THey released in the theaters 2 years after it was made and by then everyone either saw it as a bootleg or on the internet! And there is sex scenes in a Jason movie I agree, but not every ten minutes! Usually it’s just one or two scenes. This looked like a freakin cheap porno with Jason in it! And as for saying Jason goes to Hell Failed, that’s not so. A lot of Peopled liked that one becasue it was very different! The most successful one’s in the series was part one and part four, mainly because of Tom Savini’s SPecial effects work in those films and this is a fact. Don’t get me wrong there was good effects in this movie, but Part one and Part four showed raw and creative gore. But then again Tom Savini is the best FX Master in the business! We can all argue about this movie, but there is the old school Friday fans and the new school fans. If you are a new school Friday fan then you’ll love this! As for me seeing these films in the theaters from 1986 I perfer the older films. I think this would have worked if Sean Cunningham Produced, Victor Miller wrote the script, Tom Savini directed, and KNB Effects did the special effects. But this is just my opinion.Also a fact out of all the sequels Part 3 did the best with, $36,690,067, followed by the Final Chapter with $32,980,880.

If your going to slap Friday the 13th into current times, are Pamela & Jason Vorhees even needed in these films? I know this is going to piss alot of you guys off- but this movie could have been better if it had nothing to do with Jason or his mom. Have some kids looking for their pot, only to discover that some sick bastards are there as well, waiting. Cunningham made the first flick as a warning that bad things do happen, random occurances, etc. He sold the first Friday to the studios on the name “Friday the 13th” alone- had no plot, nothing. As a huge fan of this series, I’d like to be scared by ‘Friday the 13th’ again.

Impress the new generation of kids! Scare the shit out of them to the point of creating phobia’s of the woods!

Heres my OPINION on how this movie would work with Jason & his mom being mostly the main characters:

Start it off with Pamela & Elias Vorhees, happy as can be. Living a good distance up in the woods, very secluded. Elias is a tall hard working carpenter or lumberjack, who sometimes drank a little too much. They both are very homely looking & personalities to match. Pamela a cook for all the little kiddies at camp. Elias notices over some time that Pamela has been acting very strange, but writes it off as stress from work, etc. They knock it out & Pam gets Preggers.

Elias worst fears surface as Pamela seems to get worse & worse as her pregnancy wears on. (babling, times when she thinks noone is around, caught talking to herself, very very reminiscent of MPD, bypolar, etc.) He has a particularly shitty run in with his boss at the end of work one day, gets fired, goes to the bar & just gets shitfaced. Comes back in a drunk stupor after last call, to see that Pamela is in full force with her new condition, they have a epic fight & Elias leaves. Having no job in the area, and living with a crazy bitch were not too appealing to him.

Pamela takes this breakup very harsh, takes drugs, alcohol, her condition worsens, etc.

Jason is born, the doctors are all in all pretty shocked to see this baby come out the way it did, not the norm if you know what I mean. Pamela is estatic, she thinks this is the most beautiful boy she has ever seen. Doctors ask if she used any kind of drugs, alcohol, etc during pregnancy, she answers yes- but also says that she wouldn’t have him looking any other way.

Her family comes to visit & see the newborn, they are not happy with the way she handled the pregnancy, and someone makes the mistake of remarking about the young Jasons face. This infuriates Pamela & she cuts most ties with her family & remains cooking & doing odd jobs (learning in the past from Elias basics to Carpentry, handywomen, etc.)

She raises Jason to about age 6 when Elias comes by to help support Pamela & the baby. He has found a good job out away from Camp Crystal, & wants her to come with. She agrees but Elias has yet to SEE Jason. Elias & Pamela are having a cup of coffee as Jason comes in the front door with a rabbit he had caught. Elias’s first reaction is ‘this one of jasons friends’? He leaves saying he doesn’t want to raise a ‘retard’ but will provide cash when he can.

This has a profound effect on little Jason- as he was old enough to remember how terrifyingly psychotic his mother got that night.

She home schools Jason, but feels that she should let him go to the summer camp, to be able to intermingle with some kids his own age. He is called every name in the book, spit on, basically bullied, etc. Pamela tried to tell the counselers that he was special, but in truth they are disgusted with him. The counselers report back to Pamela that he is doing fine, noone is picking on him etc.

I don’t like the idea that Jason was swimming when he drowned in the first place. Since he was not a good swimmer I don’t see the counselor leaving him alone in the first place so…..

Jason is rowing out in the lake in a row boat, the counselor yells for him to come in, but he just sits there & keeps rowing. The counselor gets fed up & heads back to the cabins to get a jacket, its getting cold. Jason notices something in the water & goes to reach over the side of the boat to pick it out of the water. The boat tips over, plunging Jason into the water, he struggles for a minute then sinks to the bottom. The counselor comes back 20 minutes later, (bow chicka bow wow) & sees the boat capsized.

The rest is history as they say.

Anyone think this would work for a better part 1?

Maybe i need to watch it again i was not impressed that much they should of given the mother beginnig part at least more than it did….

They could of done a lot more with that :-S

They could of done the whitney going missing a lot more of a mystery rather than a lot of rushed kills in 0-60 seconds

The rest i did not really have any compliants about good kills They made jason a hunter with the tunnels very clever shows how he can get from another place to another quick enough….

Like i said i think i have to watch it again to see if anything makes me changes my mind

So anything that looks familiar is not original and lame. Anything new doesn’t belong there because you have not seen it in a F13 before? You really got me scratchin my head on this one.

Everyone says after Part four the series got lame, But honestly after part five they tried something different each time. Making the movie going exeperience fresh and interesting. Parts 6 thru 10 may not been the best to some in the series but each one was infact different and original each time which made it exciting to see. On this Friday I felt it was part three and four re-made! Sorry I’d rather watch the original films. Now for Jason ,Derek did a good job as JASON. But No one is better than Kane Hodder On the character of Jason, Since when did he use a crossbow? What is he Rambo?! And When did Jason Spare a victum?! Whitney is spared? We forget Jason is a killing machine like the shark in Jaws! He’s not a mercy killer! And the kills were do all ready! The sleeping bag? it’s from part seven, just done over a fire! I like the sleeping bag smacked on the tree instead! And Jason doesn’t run, he’s a stalker for god’s sake! I wish they didn’t do a re-make or re-imaging(Same thing folks!) But try an original story with these characters and really give us insight on when Jason is the way he is! I felt cheated on this movie! My own opinion Friday the 13th Part 7:The New Blood. Was more original, better made movie than this piece of Crap. Look at Kane in that movie and then Derek in this one and tell me which Jason kick ass!

That’s all you have to say about those comments? Are you the cameraman?

…Nobody implied that the device is called “shaky camera.” A hand-held camera cam be held steady or shaky. If it’s steady I don’t have a problem. If it’s shaky, problem. Therefore, I dislike “shaky camera”, not “steady camera” or “hand held camera” in general.

It can be a butt-held camera for all I care. I just want to know what the hell’s going on in the movie I paid $8 to see.

Apart from the farmers crops these kids didn’t really smoke anymore than they have in the past. Micheal Bay had no real involvement to do with this movie. I’m sick of hearing that and alot of fans have already gone in watching this movie thinking “oh man M. Bay is just gonna fuck it up I know it, I already heard about TCM.”

These movies never had closure, it’s almost always a “he could be back feeling.” I’ll agree the opening scene could of been better perhaps just longer just for the sake of a better explanation to those not too familiar with the F13 movies.

i don’t why they take into consideration certain complaints and not others. yes, they can’t make everyone happy, but this is a case where it’s UNANIMOUS!! WE BITCHED ABOUT IT IN THE TCMs MORE THAN ENOUGH!!! WE DON’T WANT SHAKY CAMERAS!!!

PLEASE, EVERYBODY KEEP SAYING IT UNTIL THEY LISTEN!! we didn’t get a single good shot of jason with the pillowcase on his head, and from the still shots i’ve seen it looked awesome. STOP SHAKING THE FUCKING CAMERAS!!!
