The tender, tragic saga of Jason Vorhees, the world's unhappiest camper, continues when yet another batch of hormonally advanced teens decide to ignore past history and spend some time at the woodsy, pine-scented slaughterhouse known as Camp Crystal Lake. It may be a bit of a stretch to describe any of the entries in this interminable series as "good," but this creatively grotesque installment manages to come surprisingly close with a welcome sense of humor and some quick glimmers of real menace (courtesy of director Steve Miner, who would later go on to helm the far more accomplished Halloween: H20). Originally presented in 3-D, which explains the never-ending slew of objects (knives, pitchforks, yo-yos, cats, eyeballs, etc.) that are repeatedly thrust in the viewer's general direction. --Andrew Wright

Where Is The 3-D DVD?.......2007-05-31

This movie was shot in 3-D and unless you saw it at the theatre you missed the 3-D part which is a shame because it looks to be the most frightening and terrifying 3-D film ever made. If "Spy Kids 3-D" can be released on dvd in 3-D then why can't all the others, especially when the 3-D gimmick is integral to the presentation of the film..
Anyway, I saw this as a kid for the first time after having my babysitter tell me how the whole movie went. It scared me intensely. It still has the prettiest "Friday The 13th" survivor to date. Plus this is the first film in which Jason wears the hockey mask. I think "Part 3" as well as "Jason X" are the best in the series for doing something different("Part 3" 3-D and "Part 10" Space). You can't truthfully say if you've never seen this before, and you sit down to watch it alone with the lights off, that it didn't scare you. So, for succeeding to do, what horror films today can't seem to do, scare me, I definately consider this film a good shocker.Just hope to see the 3-D dvd sometime soon, are you listening Paramount Home Video? Hello? HeLLO!? I didn't think so.

"ITS COMIN AT YA".......2007-04-27

This 3rd installment which happens to be my favorite is so cool to watch with the 3-D version which I have now. Jason uses a variety of stabbing weapons all throughout the movie meant to be projected towards the viewer and is the first in many sequels where we see Jason don his famous hockey mask. I think all of the characters bring something of their own to the movie. You have the main character Chris who invites all her friends to stay with her and Derek her boyfriend at his house at Camp Crystal Lake . The character Shelly was pretty wacky with his scare tactics, and you have the 2 pot smoking hippies and the motor cycle gang stalking them. Some pretty tense moments for chris in this until the very end.

Second best Jason-fest.......2007-04-20

Ok, first of all Oct Fri the 13th I FINALLY saw this movie in 3D, sigh I can die happy! Ok this one is really pretty awesome. Chris plays a great leading girl (the only F-13 leadI didnt want to see with an axe in her skull). The other characters are pretty harmless too. Wev'e got bikers (snort), pothead hippies, a fro'd chubster and a dude who can walks on his hands better than he can act. Plus this came out in the early 80's so the ratings board didnt demolish all the awesome gore scenes. I give this one a high-5! Cool deaths, funny scenes and aside from Chris's sherbert pants, some decent 80's fashion too. Yo Debbie, I want your bikini, too cuuute.
