John K @WQCMI 4d Its not bad if you're drunk. This film is unintentionally funny, but as a Friday the 13th film, its embarrassing to the franchise.

When Tommy is sent to a rural halfway house in New Jersey for mentally disturbed teenagers, a series of grisly murders begin anew as another hockey-masked killer begins killing off all people at and around the residence. Has Jason returned from the dead to re-start his killing spree? Has Tommy decided to take over the reign of Jason, or has someone else?

Half the movie feels like a parade of casting-call rejects wandering onto the set just long enough to get killed, backed by a fantastic synth-heavy soundtrack that gives it real atmosphere. You can feel the 80's MPAA censorship all over it though—there’s clearly room for gnarlier, more inventive kills that end up feeling cut short or sanitized. Still, it’s got enough sleaze, chaos, and energy to stay entertaining. Not the best in the franchise, but totally fine for what it is.

Directed by Danny Steinmann who previously directed the forgotten about hidden gem The Unseen in 1980 and the comical Savage Streets in 1984 directs this film in a way reminiscent of those porn parodies which have garnered fame in recent years. This film is, like the previous installment filled with great character writing and hilarious quips. This is a personal favorite of mine, critics are harsh a lot of the time.
