While the decision to take the franchise in a new direction is admirable, the film’s plot is so nonsensical and convoluted that the creative team’s big swing ends up as a big whiff.

Rated: 1.5/5

If Jason Goes To Hell had been a standalone film, it might have worked; as a Friday the 13th movie, it sucks.

A return to the near unwatchableness of certain earlier installments...

I've now seen all nine of the series' entries, so trust me when I say that Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday is very likely the worst of the bunch.

The worst of the bunch, but at least it teased Jason’s future showdown with Freddy Krueger. The title, “Jason Goes to Hell,” is misleading because the movie doesn’t lead anywhere. It doesn’t live up to its title until the very end, both when Jason goes to hell and when you realize Jason ended up with a script that’s a steaming pile of dog shit! Grading: D-

i'll admit this is slightly better than part 8, even if this doesn't feel like a friday the 13th movie. if anything, it'd be a bit better of an experience the second time with research from google.

I really enjoyed this movie, I really don’t understand why people don’t like it, it’s something different to the story, I loved the characters, I didn’t mind Jason transfer his soul to other people, some of the kills are memorable, if some Friday fans don’t like it, it fine.
