Jason Goes To Hell - The Final Friday
 

I think this film is VERY underrated and overlooked. Its been ages since I've seen it but I know that its probably my favorite in the whole series. The opening sequence was really fun to watch and a great idea. From then on it gets alittle weird, but the storyline gets a long awaited and needed changeup and for awhile you're dealing with a different kind of killer. The latter-portion of the movie is amazing when Jason returns. I love his look and I must say its probably the most evil he's looked in the entire series. The deaths are pretty entertaining and the characters are as well.

I don't know if i've even heard anyone say that they liked this flick, but it is by far my favorite.

Is that the one with the metal mask ? ....and that Freddy thing ?....I dont remember much of it but its not the worst in the serie...

He may have had a metal mask.. that part slipps my mind. But yes, in the end scene, Freddy's glove comes out of the ground and snatches Jason's mask. I remember going crazy when that happened

..gonna see it again...then I gonna give you a report of what i think....do you like other movies in the serie ? ...I think 3,5 and 8 sucks...but the rest is ok.....

I like all of them pretty much. Some I haven't seen in a good 8 years but they're all worth a watch.

who cares... every ft13th movie is identical in almost every way.

the counselors have sex, then they die... sure the kills are *unique*, but they repeat every movie usually. and jason looks like a fag.

Do you even know what this one is about? I havent seen it, but it doesnt sound ANYTHING like the rest of the series. Looks really good to be honest, I want to see it.

Yeah, Jason Goes To Hell follows an entirely different storyline. They also kind of explain what Jason really is.

he gets stabbed with a MAGIC dagger... how stupid can you get.

sure its a classic... and a guy eats a heart, but still.

This coming from someone who liked "Cursed".

I think the problem that everyone had was it WAS so different. It took jason and gave him a Mythos and a bit of explanaition to his inability to truly die. People wanted more, sex, woods, dead.... Not story and rules in a Jason movie *gasps* Heaven forbid someone try something new in a tired genre

I have no problem whatsoever with JGTH.
Many of the f13 films were pretty similar, so, for me, the changes made to the style and storyline of this movie were all good.
No doubt fans of the entire series would have issues with this one being a little different, but hey...that's their bad if they can't enjoy the film on account of this.
As for myself, in all honesty I only REALLY liked the 1st, and JGTH, not surprising that the same person did both of these, and none of the others. I LIKED the further explanation of Jason and the Vorhees family "curse", I liked that he could switch bodies, and IMO, the storyline, dialodgue and characters were a lot better than those in most of the films, IMO.
Each to their own...but I will never understand the big problem a lot of the f13 "fans" have with this movie...

I liked this one.:)

I saw this movie as a kid. The only thing I remember is a weird book that looks like the book in The Evil Dead.

Yeah, I don't know what the circumstances were surrounding the appearance of the book in the movie, but it IS meant to be the necronomicon (same book), the skull dagger thing from evil dead also appears, before turning into a sword in the hands of the Voorhees woman.
I take it that these are the things that lead to the rumours of the potential Ash role in the F vs J sequel.

Again, I personally loved JGTH.

It's not so much the dagger but who stabs him. Anyway, I have the uncut version on DVD and it's great. I went through my Fri. 13th movies after I saw this post and realized I don't have Jason Takes Manhatten. Oh well, Jason Goes to Hell is better.

..this is probably the goriest in the serie..I saw it again and I liked it...some dumb characters especially those who work in that burger bar.
...and like some have mentioned it has that evil dead book and dagger...and the Freddy arm....i'm surprised that nobody has mentioned "The Hidden"..some scenes are very alike

lots of people hated this, but i fricking loved it. great ending with plenty of cool kills and gore.

GOD did I hate this movie.

It really had decent potential, but it got too "magical".

I loved just about every Friday the 13th movie up until part 7. After that, they suck. But Jason Goes to Hell just isn't right.

Wasn't as bad as Jason X.

part 3 and 5 :p

Actually, 3 is my favorite. Then 6. Then 1. Then- well you know what? Why don't you check my full listing of the Friday the 13th franchise on our website under Kev's Page!


HERE!

:p :p :p

i honestly thought Jason X was meant to be a comedy... i really did.


And i rented JGTH and it was ok, i had just heard a lot of weird stuff about it, but... it was okkk. but i've given up on ft13th movies now.

it is bogus though cause pamela said jason was her only child in part 1 soo not sure where his sister came into play.
