Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!

Sam Panico Paramount - and producer Frank Mancuso, Jr. - were both aware that people were growing tired of slashers. In fact, Mancuso, Jr. began to hate the series because no one respected him for making the films, despite how much money they made. So the order was made: let's kill Jason.Directed by Joseph Zito, who also made the slasher classic The Prowler (a much bloodier, much more interesting move than this), an interesting attempt was made to get you to actually care about some of the characters. But not all, of course. There's always going to be cannon fodder in these films.The evening after the last film, Jason comes back to life and kills a coroner and a nurse before making his way back to Crystal Lake. And, de rigueur, more teenagers show up - Paul, Sara, Sam (Judie Aronson, American Ninja), Jimmy (Crispin Glover!), Doug (Peter Barton, Hell Night and TV's The Powers of Matthew Star) and Ted. They even pass Pamela Vorhees tombstone along the way.Oh yeah - then there's Trish (Kimberly Beck, Marnie), Tommy (Corey Feldman!), their mom (Joan Freeman, Panic in the Year Zero!) and their dog Gordon. And there are the skinny dipping teens, Tina and Terri. Oh yeah - and a young drifter named Rob with a secret.Tommy's family are the sympathetic characters mentioned earlier, with the kid being a stand-in for the beloved Tom Savini. He shows off his collection of special FX early and often.Of course, those teenagers all do drugs, have sex and die horribly. We're used to those things. But the murder of Tommy's mom has some emotion. And then we learn that Rob is the brother of Sandra from Friday the 13th Part 2 and has been obsessed with finding and killing Jason. Oh, he finds him, and dies like a complete fool, screaming "He's killing me!"The close, where Trish cuts off Jason's mask to reveal his face and Tommy has to flip out to hack Jason to death, was the stuff of legend in my pre-teen days, oft-discussed at lunches and study halls.Tom Savini returned here for the chance to kill off Jason, but come on, everyone. We all knew what was coming next.

Foreverisacastironmess It definitely wasn't the final one but I find this to be a fun enough chapter in Jason's bloody saga of tense stalking, ambushed and creepy forest death, for me it gets a bit thin and draggy in the middle and some of the cast members are a little more grating than they should be, but it certainly gets off to a very good strong start, beginning right on the aftermath of Part 3 with Jason even being in the same position that we left him in. I think one of the most genuinely eerie moments in the whole series comes at the end of that opening sequence as all the noise and lights at the site of the previous massacre disappear and leave everything in lonely darkness... I also love the whole following scene at the hospital which was always very memorable to me because hospitals are already plenty spooky on their own, and a goofy mortician gets his head twisted off while watching freaky 80s aerobics porn! Something that annoys me big time about this one is several of the 'teen' victims, to each their own but I really don't get what's supposed to be so super relatable and fleshed-out about them, I think they're mostly just very stupid and annoying, their whole chunk of the movie is a bit too obnoxious for me to get all that into. I did like Crispin Glover's character though, because even in this early role the guy knew how to stand out in a crowd and be interesting just by being himself and this is no exception, he's great as an awkward complete dork who still manages to score with a hot twin even though his friend kept teasing him about how much he couldn't and calling him that dumb name! He was hilarious cute and charming...that dance though.. I think a big part of what makes for a good slasher is simple consistent scary atmosphere, a good hook, and definitely having one or two characters that you actually do care about amid the faceless whack-a-mole ones, and it seemed especially cruel and unfair to me how the mother of Tommy and Trish Jarvis was killed off, because for her few scenes before she vanishes from the movie, the woman did a good job of establishing herself as a loving mother and a very sympathetic character. I really wish they'd have chosen to conclude the movie with the nightmare that Trish has where she finds her mother's ghostly body in the bathtub instead of closing it with the off-putting image of Corey Feldman's weird ugly bald head and how he gives the camera that completely unnecessary ominous look that really just raises more questions instead of offering any kind of finality. In any case though it really was the final chapter of the still fairly mortal but not too much less deadly at all Jason, after he was brought back he was basically the same but in terms of vulnerability and threat level zombie Jason was considerably different. The look and movements of this particular Jason are fine, but what really jumps out at me is the viciousness of his attacks, especially against the poor guy who he harpoons right square in the dick, hoists him into the air with it and then pulls the trigger! And despite having a rather lumbering gait he sure was a sprightly Jason, willing to swim out to a dinghy and even scale the outside of a house to get his victims! The gore effects are terrific without being over the top, Tom Savini's manufactured wounds have a certain distinctive realness to them that is very much his own style and his work holds up. I think my favourite part of this movie may be the final act and run through the house of horrors and confrontation, Kimberly Beck really comes into her own like many Friday final girls before and after her and it's just a very well shot and thrilling and suspenseful sequence. So while this movie is not one of my favourites amongst the Jason pictures, like the rest of them apart from Part 9, I find the overall viewing experience to be one that's very charming and entertaining, these flicks were never meant to be high art, at a guess I'd say they never had any major aspirations beyond hopefully giving the viewer a scary fun time, something which to me most of them succeeded at fantastically. A colurful and fun solid chapter that's not perfect but is, if you have a liking for this particular brand of harmless and awesome popcorn horror junk, a very winning simple formula that's makes for yet another suspenseful classic macabre watch.

ivo-cobra8 Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter is my all time favorite horror slasher 80's film it is the best one and it is tied with Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives it is my third favorite Friday the 13th film this is a good a really good film. It is one of my personal favorite horror movies. It is my favorite film this is the best one I will always watch this film as many times I will want too I loved it so much I loved it! Kimberly Beck, Corey Feldman and Crispin Glover made this film work for me. This is Joseph Zito's best film he ever made. After this Joseph Zito went and directed Missing in Action movie with Chuck Norris a year later he directed another actioner Invasion U.S.A. again with Chuck Norris. I enjoy this movie much you have beautiful cast in here you have a lot's of nudity, great gory and bloody scenes, great kills great heroes. I just love this film to death from setting from acting from jokes everything I love in this film. I think is better than Part 1 and 2 but that is just my opinion. MILES way better then lackluster Part 3: 3D.Corey Feldman is great as Tommy Jarvis the main hero in this film this is his best film. I love him in The Lost Boys and in this film he was fantastic. Kimberly Beck as Trish Jarvis was excellent in my opinion really excellent I love her so much in here. Crispin Glover was great before he went to star a year later in Back to the Future (1985) my all time favorite film. Amy Steel convinced Peter Barton to play the role of Doug in this movie it was her talking that convinced the actor to make this movie. You have Double mint Twins Camilla and Carey Moore they are great twins. Judie Aronson from American Ninja and Dessert Kickboxer is in this film I barely recognize her but she is in this film. E. Erich Anderson as Rob did a good job as the guy who want's to avenge his sister death.Special makeup effects artist was Larry Carr, Tom Savini and Kevin Yagher who were practical special effects. No CGI bull sh**t no shaky cam I love all gory and practical effects used in this film. Yes Kimberly Beck can act! There was a beautiful jump scene trough window in which the actress fall. I kind a got a feeling that Wes Craven's Scream imitated that scene and copied it with Sidney (Neve Campbell) falling down from the window on the boat.The characters in IV were less cartoonish and more likable. I felt for Jimmy and Sarah, they were sweet kids. And ole big jaw, who bites it in the shower, wasn't such a bad guy. Nor was he an egregious stereotype. It feels like the franchise came into its own here. The Final Chapter is well-paced and well-acted, fit with campy dialogue, bloody deaths, and nudity galore. It uses the same formula as previous entries but it's a step above in execution. And it successfully managed to provide closure for the franchise... for a short time, anyway.The cast is also a little more varied this time around, with the introduction of the Jarvis family as well as Rob. Even though he doesn't accomplish much while alive, Rob was a great addition to the formula as the one guy who actually knows what the hell is going on. His mission, to hunt down Jason and avenge his sister, was an interesting turn for a series full of oblivious dopes. Too bad he doesn't use his genre savvy as well as he should have, losing his best weapons early on to sabotage and then putting up little-to-no actual fight once he finally comes face to face with his prey. Though in the end, without him (the machete and the all-important newspaper clippings are of course Rob's) Trish and Tommy would have probably had no chance in fending off the maniacal Mr. Voorhees.Which brings me to another thing. Jason is a ruthless killing machine in this one. He doesn't spend 10 minutes walking around and closing barn doors to elicit responses from the curious. And this being an early sequel, he's still active and apt to run after a victim rather than slowly walk and conveniently teleport in front of them. Which makes the end sequence one of the last that had any real urgency to it. And the gore, in addition to being really effective, doesn't seem quite as harshly cut from this one.The Final Chapter ties the original run of the series together well, and is the last Jason entry that can really be taken seriously.This is my number 3 favorite Friday the 13th movie I will always watch it, it is my favorite film. It is one of my personal favorite movies. It is one of the strongest in the franchise, The Final Chapter stills holds greatly on suspense, unpredictable scenes and bloody, gory kills! Even if I love Jason Lives to death, this seriously should have been the end of the franchise! This movie get's my Bad-Ass Seal Of Approval 10/10 this movies are great I love this film to death I love it I highly recommend it to the fans.

elsiagoddess Right now this has a 5.9 on IMDb. This is crazy!I think sometimes people just click and review things without watching them. Which they shouldn't do. They probably think 'oh it's jason part 4 it has to be bad. I'll rate that a 1.'This is why you shouldn't review movies or rate them unless you have seen them. This is one of the best Jason movies and you would know that if you have seen it.What makes this movie so good is Tom Savini is back doing the makeup. He is a god among horror fans. So seeing him and Tommy played by Corey Feldman makes this a hugely fun movie.It's one of those movies you can watch over and over again.5.9. Shame on you all. It should be at least a 9.
