Friday the 13th: A New Beginning (1985) – 5/10

Jason Lives: Friday the 13th Part VI (1986) – 5/10

Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood (1988) – 4/10

Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan (1989) – 4/10

***

And with the Paramount entries in the series out of the way, I’ll list everything I like about them:

  • The atmosphere in the first five movies
  • The aesthetics of Human Jason (Zombie Jason looks like literal shit)
  • That (most of) the final girls are strong, resourceful, likable women
  • Harry Manfredini’s music

And that’s it, really.

I’m tired of watching these movies – and I’m in no great hurry to watch Jason X or Freddy vs. Jason again – so I think I’ll take a long break before continuing on with the New Line sequels.
