Predictable and often quite hard to watch, It?s quite boring! Still, they tried to move away from the first 4 film which are pretty much 4 different versions of the same film, at least they progressed with the story! It?s just a shame it wasn't a very good one!

By far the worst of the series. The acting is terrible to the point of laughter and the entire premise of the four previous films was ignored. You cannot have a Friday the 13th movie without Jason Voorhees, it's just a fact. It's such an irrelevant chapter and much like Halloween...( read more)
