Review of Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday (1993) by Willa D — 07 Dec 2018

The final Friday (1993): This movie doesn't take itself seriously -- at least not too seriously. In between the various maimings, it takes time out to poke fun at the series' reputation, including a reference to going up to Camp Crystal Lake to "do drugs, have premarital sex, and get slaughtered".

It's this warped sense of humor that actually makes the film somewhat entertaining. In a genre where it's often difficult to tell satires from serious attempts, the parodies in Jason Goes to Hell are far too obvious to be accidental.

For blood-and-guts lovers everywhere, the return of Jason is reason enough to trundle down to the local multiplex for a midnight showing.
