SPOILER ALERT!!!
SO, this time we are in a sort of correctional facility for mental people where Tommy (now 15) has been sent but guess what? JASON HAS RETURNED (I'm cutting this very short because i assume if you're reading the review you've already watched it or you just really enjoy spoilers) after an incident at the correctional facility where one of the patients got annoyed with another and swung an axe into him. So paramedics come to take the body and from there on out "Jason" is making his killings again. Now, if your wondering why i put quotation marks around Jason it's because the killer is not Jason. He is the paramedic disguised as Jason and this is where we find out that the guy who was killed at the beginning was the paramedics son and he was taking revenge but of course a bunch of dreams and accusations lead us to believe it's really Jason. So they kill fake Jason by pushing him out the barn, slicing his hand off leaving him to drop on a bunch of spikes there the mask falls off and ta-daaaa, not Jason. Now for the ever so famous Friday the 13th plot twist ending. Tommy who has once again survived the massacre is laying in bed and has a dream that he kills his friend who's come to check on him. He wakes up all sweaty and stands up walking over to a draw where we see Jason's mask in it. suddenly we're in the hallway focusing on the friend coming to visit when she hears a smashing sound, she runs in to see if he's alright but he is no where to be seen and the window is smash but... And here comes the plot twist, are you ready?! TOMMY IS BEHIND HER IN THE HOCKEY MASK WITH A KNIFE *Que dramatic screaming*
And that was Friday the 13th: A New Beginning.
So here's my question, Is that it for the real Jason? Is Tommy from now on going to be impersonating Jason? Or does real Jason come back as hinted in the next film's title "Jason Lives"? and a final question, how long are they going to milk this thing?
I appreciate the new approach and the more realistic feel to this one (Apart from the weird ass neighbors. What was the point of them again?) and when I say more realistic, i mean more realistic than the past ones. There's a lot more titties in this one too so immediate thumbs up for that but the franchise is getting worn out again. I just don't see why the paramedic went through such effort to be a copycat Jason when he could have just as easily got himself a different mask and also why he targeted everyone in the area instead of just the guy who killed his son. the kid was cool though, really reminded me of the kid from Role-Models. Also just like to take a moment to point out (This was bothering me so much that i couldn't figure out where i recognized him from) the person who played young Tommy is was also in Lost boys and The Goonies.
**
I'll give is a respectable 2/5 stars
