This film is unbelievably Cheezy, yet fun!
16 October 2002
My pal Ryan and I recently rewatched this "golden stinkburger".

This film is better for laughs than for scares. We informally kept track and almost 1/2 of this film is flashbacks from Friday the 13th one!!

Of course this is your typical teenager go to "counsel" at a summer camp, and of course it's next to Crytal Lake "camp blood" where all those kids were killed "five years ago"

Well we get the usual no Jason for half the film and the "fake" scares and teens hopping in and out of bed.

When Jason mercifully comes onto the scene(by the time he shows up your almost grateful he's there to stop all this dumb stuff)about halfway into the film.

Jason did grow up really fast in five years, must be all those bugs he eats in the woods!! But why is he wearing a pillowcase with only one eyehole? Ryan and I could never figure it out..but it was hilarious!!

From here on it gets side splitting funny!!! Jason has machette problems, everytime he kills someone it's with the flat (non blade) side of the machette. Man, is this guy good or what???

Jason, of course, has a limping problem, and thus walks/runs kinda slow. In yet another scene from this ultimate in werid cinema, he "chases" ( I wouldn't even dignify it as running) a gal for alomst 15 mins, at times she STOPS and waits for him to catch up!! Nice when your victim thinks of you like this...

Of course the ending, where our heroine get trapped in Jason's hideout and dresses in Jason's mothers sweater in order to delude him so she can escape. While doing this she stands in front of the decapated head of Jason mother which he has lovingly preserved via Norman Bates.

Instead of running when she has him confused, she keeps yapping and mioves away so he can see she's fooling him!! I guess this was so the "boyfreind" could show up and "kill" Jason.

Of course, as any "Friday" fan knows, Jason never dies!!

It's worth a rental!!
