You've seen it after eight movies. And that's what I love about this movie. Paramount nauseatedly spits out their ugliest child, their driest milked cow, after VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan (the title alone), and New Line embraces the monstrosity with immense pride and takes it in a completely different way. In this self-realizing film series, they turn it into a completely over-the-top nonsense horror/slasher, one that you shouldn't think too much about, with deliciously absurd bloody murders and fake tits.

In terms of story, to really distance itself from its predecessors, the film obviously ignores all the rules that have already been drawn up in the past, in order to let a real party loose on you, as it happens in real life. No dirty looks at the drunk uncle, because this is his home and his drink that we use.

On top of that, as a genre fan you get a lot of nods to other classics, both Kandarion dagger and the Necronomicon, aka the Book Of The Dad, from Evil Dead get a role and none other than Freddy Krueger surprises as a scene stealer in the climax. A cameo that would foreshadow a fight from the depths of hell, filmed in Freddy vs. Jason.

And finally, the poster is also a strange duck in the bite. It's so different from what they used at Paramount. I well remember when I was a little boy staring at the VHS cover of this movie in the video store, I was looking forward to this part so hard because of the completely ripped cover. So cool, because yes, Jason apparently got a metal mask.

Fantastic beast. I'm a fan. More of this junk.

Indeed, there is really a run with this series that nevertheless started strong. This is the worst part yet, and it's not even about Jason at all. By the way, he had died again in the previous part, but that shouldn't stop the makers from working on a sequel. They decided to make it into a kind of zombie/cannibal movie. But even as a standalone film, it's not worth it. And the low point is when that little monster crawls out of the dead killer and crawls into that woman's womb (I presume?), it looks like an Alien movie. A totally exhausted series, which was actually already closed after part IV!

Years ago when I was in high school, I borrowed horror movies from a classmate of mine.

Friday the 13th was logically part of that. I think I borrowed them up to part 7 - I don't remember seeing Manhattan and this one.

It will be tense. 9 or 10, which one takes home the worst adaptation of the Jason Voorhees story? This 9th, which no longer even bears the name Friday the 13th, starts fairly conventionally and well. I don't really care what Jason does in the movie in some In, as long as he stalks and kills.

As soon as he is shot to pieces by the FBI, the story derives and they try to give it a completely own twist. It's okay of course, it just doesn't work. Jason as 'spirit' in other bodies are just other bodies that are not Jason. A bit of an uncharismatic, laughable display actually. It does end pretty strong again with re Jason as we know it.

Bottom line, 20 minutes of the film are worth watching, but not unique. The rest of the playing time I actually have no idea what exactly is happening.

Nice detail are the references to other horror films. Two of the countless that come along are 'Evil Dead' and 'A Nightmare on Elm Street'.
