Synopsis: This film picks up right after the events of Friday the 13th Part 2. Jason steals some clothes, kills a couple of store owners, and finds a new group of young sinning adults to kill.
The Good: Like part 2 this is a good 'ol fashioned 80's slasher. None of the kills are particularly spectacular, but there are some really good ones.
The Bad: This movie was made for 3D and the gags are pretty damn cheesy. It's even weirder when you don't watch it in 3D.
Final Thoughts: This Friday the 13th has my favourite victim of the series, Sheldon "Shelley" Finkelstein. Shelley is a nerdy clown, into horror, and chubby. He's also the reason Jason has the hockey mask.
In Your Game: The Relentless Stalker for Slashers & Victims Light is essentially this version of Jason Vorhees. That being said I've decided to add a new item for S&V Light.
Shelley's Mask
The hockey mask worn by Jason (taken from Shelley Finkelstein) has been imbued with dark energies. The individual wearing it recieves a -1[+1] bonus to AC. However, it whispers dark things in their ears, which scream when the mask is removed (stunning the wearer for 1d3 rounds or until they're attacked).

I think #3 might be my favorite of the series. Damn, it's hard to pick a best-of when it comes to this series. #1 through #4 are all amazing!
ReplyDeleteI agree about the first four being fantastic. While I think 2 is my favorite, Shelley's my favourite character.
ReplyDeleteThe harpoon killing in 3 might be my favorite death. The music is fun, too. There's almost a comic book disco vibe to it.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite character might be "dead fuck" from #4.
