Ok, so part VII wasn't exactly The Godfather part 2, but how about part VIII? I must say this was a slight improvement because it was fun seeing our boy making entrances in such places as a diner, subway and the sewers. It's a change.This time every mother's favorite son-in-law Jason Voorhees is awaken from his watery grave by electricity (in part V by lightning, this time by a power cord). He roams the corridors of this cruise ship full of graduating teens heading to New York and as you know it, he hacks them all into pieces. Speaking of power chords - the first highlight of this movie is Jason killing a MTV music video rock wannabe with her own axe, a Flying V model. The second takes place on a rooftop in Manhattan where this black boxer kid punches Jason maybe 30-40 times and when he can't K.O. the hockey-masked avenger he says "take your best shot, you motherfuck". Jason swings once and the kid's head flies right off and falls down from the roof and into a dumpster. Classic. Peter Mark Richman who plays the old man Charles really can't act at all in this movie.
I know it doesn't say much but I enjoyed this entry the most of the Friday movies. I'm sure it's not really a movie for the fans of the series but it was just nice to see Jason in some other enviroment than the woods. Plus there were some comic moments here and there, like the abovementioned pugilist scene.
WARNING! If you miss a note on your C major scale, Jason will call you for it:
