Production-wise, this is probably the best part of the Friday 13thseries. Camera work, lighting, sound, are all at least one level up fromthe usual production quality.
It starts very strong in my opinion. But then it goes into thissmall-American-town kind of vibe, which I don’t know, if it fits. Onitself this is a solid film, but in the series, this is the odd one out(so far – haven’t seen “X”). The special effects à la “The Thing” or“Alien” are totally my thing, and were probably the best thing about it.The characters were a bit too “Police Academy”-ish, with The Duke beingborder-line annoying.
In conclusion: a solid movie, but I feel like this would’ve been betteras a one-off rather than being part of the Jason-franchise.
