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.

This review is for the unrated version. This unrated version is absolutely insane with really gore effects by KNB but it doesn't feel like Friday the 13th as somehow they doing The Terminator rip-off and there's no story of previous of all Friday the 13th and script is so laughable bad also there's a evil dead easter eggs scenes which has nothing to do with this movie however Freddy Kruger jumps in at the end for a wink towards the camera for a battle royal in the year 2000's.

The fact that this is generally considered the worst of the franchise is crazy to me, I understand that the concept of this movie is entirely different from the original ones, which may be off-putting, but this was still an enjoyable watch. Some people say this is the best out of the franchise which I don't agree with, but I can see why because this is probably the most graphic of the bunch so far, I was close to skipping over this one (I watched the 10th movie before this) because of the bad ratings, but I shortly realised that was a mistake, since no one is going to have the same opinion as you, so sometimes you just have to experience things yourself. I watched this expecting very low and ended up being satisfied, so do with that what you will. There's also some pretty funny moments in this as well. 6.5/10

Watched the new 4K. Very entertaining film. I have watched it a few times before. This the first time I enjoyed it. It's a different idea and they probably got bored of the same formula so changed it. It works in 2025. Very violent and probably craziest Friday the 13th film. The 4K from Arrow is amazing quality with many interesting extras.

It's Friday the 13th worst movie. Don't lose your time watching it.

If it wasn’t for Freddy, this wouldn’t get a star.

The most unusual of the series - and the unrated version has the best kill. It doesn't make much logical sense, but not many of these movies do. I like it. Most won't.
