This is one of my least favourite of the series. This is when the series started getting stale because it kept to that same formula. And while the kills are enjoyable, Not much else is.

Its simply another slasher movie thought for adolescents and carried out by them. Its definitely a movie that is not worth the time it took to watch it because it seems made by amateurs. I just regret that Jason never thought of visiting the studios where the movies about him were made ... maybe the visit would have prevented some disasters like this movie.… Expand

Aw sh*t here we go again for the same copied and pasted formula.

Don't worry, youAw sh*t here we go again for the same copied and pasted formula. 'Friday the 13th Final Chapter' starts with an awful introduction bringing us back in the ugliest and least scary moments of the prequel. No strings attached. Don't worry, you don't have to wait a long time to witness the first boobs-flash scene and realize that this particular episode of the saga brought the nudity and the sex scenes to a whole other level. Overall, the vulgarity continues to rise, even after the impressive level of "Friday the 13th Part 3" and its incredible focus on teenage girls' butts. Here we have the right to have the bad and muddy jokes in addition to it. And teenagers watching nudity all night long. Moreover, while the prequel sometimes fell into a kind of voyeurism, here we have an official beginning of this perverse inclination since we have the extreme chance to see a ten year old looking at a naked teenager. I don't even have to note the fact that all these stereotyped teenage protagonists are horny as hell and can't go a night without getting laid. Plus they all are as dumb as deaf to not realize what is happening all around them.

The acting is very inequal between the actors and it is a shame since some of them had a great potential like Rob. But the movie prefers to show us blood than deeper realtions and interesting characters. Dialogues are terrible. The few 'romance' sub-stories are awful. There are a surprising amount of useless and ineffective scare jumps. Special effects are bad even if slightly better than those of the prequel. In 'Friday the 13th Final Chapter' we also reach a point of gore and sadism never seen before in the series. The crimes are finally getting more creative and darker, which doesn't stop them from being honestly laughable at some point. Jason is still overpowered, invicible and fast as my man Usain, making him a shallow and predictable opponent.

Fortunately the movie has some decent parts, like this amazingly laughable dance scene which is totally unforgettable. You just have to enjoy it to make the film worth watching. No spoilers but for once the ending is interesting and different from all those of the prequel.… Expand

Friday The 13th: The Final Chapter still have that usual Friday The 13th fun and the brutalness of the death, but the differences is compare the previous three that only happen in the first 30 minutes, and all the fun and brutalness gone justFriday The 13th: The Final Chapter still have that usual Friday The 13th fun and the brutalness of the death, but the differences is compare the previous three that only happen in the first 30 minutes, and all the fun and brutalness gone just like that in the rest of the film because of the stupidness that are too stupid in terms of a story and characters that literally all of them especially the group of teens members that are all just very very unlikeable, they all stupid, dumb, horribly perform, and all of their death is just so unsatisfying, there is no terror anymore, i'm watching their death like there is nothing happen and maybe that because i don't care about a single character in this movie too, i hated all the group of teens members in this one, the only three character that i don't hate but still meh is Trish, her mom, and Tommy, and they all not in the group, so overall Friday The 13th: The Final Chapter is indeed the first one in the franchise that i cannot stand it because how dumb and awful the movie is and the fact is it is dumb and awful movie that fills with so many unlikeable characters.… Expand

Was nice to see a few known actors pop up in this. This one seemed to go over the line with the gratuitous nudity and general horniness from the start. I am getting sick and tired of seeing the bad guys feet walking as a form of tension. HasWas nice to see a few known actors pop up in this. This one seemed to go over the line with the gratuitous nudity and general horniness from the start. I am getting sick and tired of seeing the bad guys feet walking as a form of tension. Has some better kills at least, the launch from the window was fun, assuming everybody in the house was deaf though. Features an all time weird dance sequence from Crispin Glover. I appreciated the different spin on the ending.… Expand
