This is the name of the mental patient who hacked Joey to death and was taken away by the police. Many believe this was put there to insinuate the possibility that Victor had escaped and is committing more murders. nickmeecehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09394907738025746646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-89572925689911441192010-02-22T18:56:49.723-08:002010-02-22T18:56:49.723-08:00I am not a fan of this movie.
1. The only charact...I am not a fan of this movie.<br /><br />1. The only characters worth anything at all were Reggie and his brother. Reggie was played by frikkin' Dudley. Who doesn't like Dudley? His brother, Demon, was somewhat charming until he started serenading his girlfriend whilst taking a liquiduke. Still, there's something suprisingly likable about this consummate eighties negro.<br /><br />2. The opening dream sequence. Yeah, it turned out to be a dream sequence, so the criticism is not as valid, but do people ever get buried two inches in the ground? Even in dreams? That was a dead give away that this was either a dream sequence or going to be a really awful movie.<br /><br />3. When the lead chick trips and falls in the mud, why does she crawl??? She had plenty of time to get back up. She acts like she's got bullets flying overhead fer cryin' out loud!<br /><br />4. The best shock came with the rubber spider.Miskatonichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10458189434988263478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-78571165367978591402008-12-14T19:41:00.000-08:002008-12-14T19:41:00.000-08:00I guess I can sod the fuck of then...Granted, I'm ...I guess I can sod the fuck of then...<BR/><BR/>Granted, I'm not as versed in this stuff as y'all. And I think that the first Friday the 13th film doesn't hold up that well, but the trailer for the new one is definitely not thrilling to me. What, that apparently he runs fast rather than lumbers around. Okay, I am curious to see how they marry the mother/Jason killer thing, but beyond that...<BR/><BR/>I guess I should just get over my distaste of remakes and reboots. They're pretty much a fact of horror now, eh?C.

I am surprised however you didnt' point out Reggie's amazing scream he has when he sees "jason". and my favorite scene - violets dance / death. <BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpBTSZXKktAUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04461080234993338954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-34415542535911974382008-12-08T23:57:00.000-08:002008-12-08T23:57:00.000-08:00I think this film is terrible and probably second ...I think this film is terrible and probably second worst F13TH flick after JASON TAKES MANHATTAN, which is the liquid shit of the franchise. The lack of Jason doesn't bug me. It's the fact that it's obvious who the copycat is. And then we have to deal with paper-thin characters, especially Violet aka Robot Girl, who should have suffered a greater death. And Tommy sucks here. I'm surprised Paramount followed this with the best F13TH film, JASON LIVES. Amazing.<BR/><BR/>I don't really agree with your order from best to worst at all, but we all have our opinions. I happen to like the New Line stuff, especially FREDDY VS. JASON and the so-bad-it's-good, JASON X.<BR/><BR/>Great review. The remake doesn't look half bad to be honest.Fred [The Wolf]https://www.blogger.com/profile/03208803636786210066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-549566038669231172008-12-08T21:53:00.000-08:002008-12-08T21:53:00.000-08:00You mean you could actually get those Paramount DV...You mean you could actually get those Paramount DVD's to play? Those discs crap out on me no matter what player Im using. Laptop, portable, home. What a crappy box set. I thinks its odd sequels that play and even ones that freeze up now that I think about it. Im still frosted about it. Im a huge F13 fan, but I feel like a sucker. What did I pay? Over 60 bucks for the collection? Something like that, and the discs are garbage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5110147752122772426.post-17724193957725694252008-12-08T20:35:00.000-08:002008-12-08T20:35:00.000-08:00Most *'d post yet.
