    One of my favourites! I'd say if you only got to watch one Friday the 13th, you should watch this one. It's got the gore, the cheese, and Jason in all his glory.

    And just like that Jason is back. This one is my favorite Friday the 13th, reasoning being it has a lot of things that the others don't. First off there Camp Crystal Lake is actually full of kids this time around, the only Friday flick to do so, secondly the secondary characters are actually not stupid as all hell, they are actually good, thirdly its in this one that Jason finally becomes the undead zombie and not just some really strong and durable guy so it makes a hell of a lot more sense why things don't kill him this time around. Plus as an additional bonus this is one of the few Friday The 13th movies that actually falls on Friday The 13th.

    I really liked the homage to Frankenstein by reanimating Jason by lightning in the beginning of this movie. The kills were amped up and more brutally vicious in this movie & that made it especially enjoyable for me. A good addition to the series.

    For some reason this was my Absolute favorite of all the Jason movies.Maybe its because Alice Cooper did the Theme song.

    This one has really grown on me over the years; as far as the Friday flicks go this one injects a hell of a lot more fun into the series.

    Jason Voorhees' single greatest romp through Crystal Lake. He's finally undead (thanks, Tommy) and ready to kick totall ass. It's very rare that a sequel trumps the original, but in case you ever need an example, look to this one.

    This is my favorite of the lot..Tommy Jarvis after his years in rehab for his psychotic breakdowns is back to finally send Jason back to his unholy grave once and for all..Will he succeed or does Jason have other plans!!! Alice Cooper did the soundtrack for this movie!!

    A touch of humour makes it better than regular Friday the 13th offerings, but that really isn't saying much. Has some good gore, but some really bad acting.

    ermn this maybe the best friday the 13th movie but i cannot remember this movie that well because its been ages but this is ok i guess the directors of all of these movies keep the viewers on the edge of your seats throughout these movies because you never know what 2 expect from all of these movies this is ok i guess

    Just exactly the same as the others I've seen, except all of the characters were all over the place and yet Jason managed to be everywhere in an instant without needing a vehicle.
    Still though Jason was as cool as ever. He's definitely one of the most stylish horror villains.
    The two main characters were very annoying. I hoped Jason would get them.
    Loved the credits song, it was awesome.

    Jason is resurrected from the grave via electricity Frankenstein style in this sixth entry in the series. Seems Tommy Jarvis wants to dig up Jason to make sure he's dead...and well, the answer is pretty much obvious. Not taking it's self too seriously this time, part 6 is a lot fun and very bloody.

    There was something special about this entry. It might have been the kills. I really enjoyed this one in particular.

    Jason Lives is one of the best of the series. It returns to the roots of the first three and introduces great new characters. The whole movie in enjoyable from beginning to end.

    This has to be one of the most comical movies in the series, which is sad because the plot wasn't all that bad...not good, but not bad

    Jason lives! A thunder wakes him up and the blood runs again. Grown-up Tommy Jarvis tries to kill him again, helped by the sheriff's daughter and a stunning soundtrack by Alice Cooper. One of the greatest "Jason" sequels, thanks to the very ironic and b-style script, fast action and a renewed "chichi-ahah" camping atmophere.

    Classic Friday the 13th. Wished Jason had killed all these little kids. I think it's actually the less worst Friday the 13th sequel.

    The sixth installment in a movie series that comes back more often than a genital herpes outbreak. This one is one of my favorites, I like them all but this one stands out, because this is one of the rare ones where a re-occuring character i.e. impressionable Tommy Jarvis returns. Albeit disappointing that they could not get Corey Feldman to play him in this one, but the movie was made 2 years later and somehow Ole tommy went from 15 to 20 something. Worth a look even if you're not into the series.

    More predictable hacking and slashing, albeit, very entertaining hacking and slashing! One of the better films in the series.

    The slickest of the Friday the 13th movies, this one sees Vorhees resurrected for the first time as undead zombie. If you're looking for the old school Vorhees you want Part 3, which is the pick of the early films. Part 4 (The inappropriately named Final Chapter) runs a close second to this one. Number 6 has a functioning plot, enjoyable characters, a recognisable Vorhees, and a great ending - which makes Jason Lives the pinnacle of the series, and the best slasher flick ever. Best bit: The final showdown in Crystal Lake.

    The last in the Tommy trilogy, has Jarvis, who is apparently still at a halfway home (I'm assuming his stay was extended after his "freak out" at the end of part V), needs some closure and decides to cremate Jason's body. Things go wrong, Jason comes back and is quite pissed and commences to reaquire his old stomping grounds now called Forest Green. McLoughlin turns the series around briefly with this humorous, tongue-in-cheek sequel that lightly pokes fun at both the series and slashers overall.
