"A decent Jason for once..."
Well, folks, it's finally happened, Jason Voorhees, the Crystal Lake teen slasher, has finally acquired his trademark hockey mask in Friday the 13th, Part 3. The opening credits were great, and the theme song was really catchy. If you're wondering why there are so many scenes where things get really, really close to the screen, it's because this was in 3-D when it was in theatres, so naturaley they had to do some surprise and three-dimensional elements. Richard Brooker stars as Jason Voorhees, and does a pretty good job, but he would be the third understudy for me on the three people best at playing Jason. The second would have to be C.J. Graham for his performance in part 6, and the first would, of course, be Kane Hodder for his performances in parts 7, 8, 9, and X. But, sadly, we may not see Kane's name in the credits for Freddy vs. Jason, unless he coordinated the stunts, because New Line considered passing him over for the Jason role, and filming began on Sept. 9. So, hopefully, they'll have decided to go with him, but we'll just have to wait and see. Anyway, even though Jason Voorhees gets his mask here, it's about 4/6 into the movie, but that's okay, because he looks pretty freaky without it too, but it doesn't really show his face. Usually, when he appears without the mask, they either don't show his face at all or they show it so quick that you couldn't make out what the actual appearance was. Written by Martin Kitrosser and Carol Watson, produced by Frank Mancusco Jr., and directed by Steve Miner, who also did Friday the 13th part 2, Friday the 13th, Part 3 introduces Jason Voorhees with his trademark hockey mask, as well as delivering major chills, and excitement that should be more than enough to get you through the movie.
4 STARS FOR DVD,-1 FOR PARAMOUNTS LOUSY JOB
First of all I can remember watching this movie when I was eight years of age and it scared the hell out of me. When I found out it was on DVD I was pleased and quickly purchased it. I found watching now that I'm in my twenties it is still a great horror/slasher film,it didn't give me nightmares like when I was a kid but it certainly will make you jump at scenes. This movie is about a group of teenagers that take a weekend and visit a friends cabin near Camp Crystal Lake. The main character has alreadly encountered Jason before when she ran away from home and went to the woods. I like the concept of mystery that she saw Jason but didn't know about the murders at Camp Crystal,and the fact that her friends don't realize either. Friday The 13th 3 uses the same winning formula as other classic 80's slashers,scary music(composed by Harry Manfredini) that did the original score,same atmosphere(the woods,lake,barn)and by far the best and most brutal deaths of the franchise,including a guy walking on his hands and getting split in half, and a harpoon in the eye(just to name a few). This is a classic and a collector for Friday The 13th fans,Jason finally ditches the .... ku klux klan sheet,and gets his famous hockey mask 1)BRILLANT SCORE BY HARRY MANFREDINI FROM ORIGINAL FRIDAY THE 13TH,2)DECENT ACTING(WAY BETTER THEN 2,4 AND THE ... NEW BEGINNING),3)SURPISING SCARES,PLUS SINCE IT WAS IN 3D IN THE THEATERS YOU STILL GET SORT A FEELING STUFF IS MORE DIRECTED TO THE SCREEN(EYEBALL,RAT,SNAKE,HARPOON,AXE,ETC.),4)PLUS HIGH QUALITY PICTURE(WIDESCREEN)AND THREATICAL TRAILER(WHICH PARAMOUNT SOMETIMES DOESN'T EVEN INCLUDE) LAME PARAMOUNT,NO EXTRAS,BUT BEST FRIDAY THE 13TH FILM, PART 3 IS REALLY THE ONLY ONE WORTH OWNING,WATCH (THE BURNING) INSTEAD OF THE OVERRATED FTH13 1 THAT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE JASON IN IT.
