For me they done the job, many films borrow from the Friday the 13th series and are alot worse in many cases.

I find them entertaining now and not so much the horror element any more.

Yes they did become samey, but most movies run to a formula now anyway, start to watch a movie and you know who lives and who dies right from the get go. But I do find it interesting how many people have grown to dislike the movies

I agree...I like the first 3 now just for the nostalgia and not the horror. It takes me back, they're fun and I'd rather watch them than that piece of dung Fog remake.

Parts 1, 2 and The Final Chapter are great.

Savini's work in The Final Chapter is amazing.

Fun series of flicks.

i actually saw part 3 in the theatre - in 3D .. that was kind of fun.

(i have the 3-d poster too come to think of it)

I liked 1 and 2 because they had naked people;)

I'm going to try to do that to.I just need to rent 1,2,3 because I already own 4,5,6.

1,2,3,and 4 are great 80's slashers.

I don't know, I felt like the Friday movies were the same thing one right after the other after #2. I can talk b/c my buddy made me watch all 10 back to back over the course of one week. So we did like 2-4 a day I think.

I will say that I hated #8 & Jason X.

Parts 5 and 8 are pretty fucking painfull to sit thru. I enjoyed Jason X because it was a total cheesefest poking fun at the series and David Cronenberg's cameo was great.

I didn't find 5 to bad.8 Sucked.
