Watching Jason Goes To Hell: The Final Friday

Jason Goes to Hell was one of the most controversial Friday's made. First they tried to bring him from local legend into the mainstream of all America by having a mock news agency do a piece on him. They also tried to explain his ability to continue coming back by bring in the Book Of The Dead, and also gave him a family tree by introducing a sister, kinda like Michael had...
That aside the story was tight, fluid, and to me seemed believable in the realm of the occult and supernatural extremes.
The scene was set right out the gate with a lady FBI agent hanging out at Camp Crystal Lake to lure Jason, which works....
Then after being led into an ambush the FBI being the bad ass guys they claim to be fired away and blew the shit out of Jason...
The pieces are scattered all over the open field...
Observed by Duke the guy who knows everything about Jason and the rest of the Voorhees family...
The heart is still alive, which is the source of Jason"s power. It hypnotizes the Coroner and Jason lives once more forever hopping from doomed victim to doomed victim...
And now the killing continues...
From this stage in the movie the story follows Duke and his connection to the Voorhees family while being interviewed by a talk show host who is also dating Diana's daughter, Jason's sisters'.
Diana, who happens to be watching the program becomes panicked to learn that Jason was not killed by the FBI, and is still on the loose...
Duke introduces himself to Diana and causes her to become even more frightened. Now I found his character a bit over bearing and demanding. It was hard for me to warm up to him through the whole movie, but I guess a profit seeking bounty hunter who specializes on the undead serial killers of the whole isn't really a people person...
And of course no Friday movie would be complete without campers out in the woods having sex...
So while they are out in the woods doing their thing Jason is about to remind them why they should never believe what they hear in the news ...

This is one of the best Jason kills of all time...next to the earlier movie that it pays homage to where he slits the guy down the middle...
Never spend too much time in a poorly lit parking lot no matter where your at or who is with you...
Jason jumps into a new body as the old one begins to wear out...
From this point on the massacre just increases and the kills are intense...
They bring in the big house and the book of the dead to tie in the family and the occult which explains how Jason is able to keep coming back and why he stays near Crystal Lake...
Jason jumps again and we learn the gruesome fate of the old body...

Now in his new body he heads after his kin so he can become reborn...
The machete finally makes it to the party...
Jason is finally reborn...
Family kills family...
Jason finally goes to hell...
And this is the moment that starts countless years of fans begging for a Freddy vs Jason movie...and we finally got one...yeah...
