Jason is accidently revived from his watery grave by a girl with psychokinetic abilities to go on another rampage, killing horny teens. As many reviews have pointed out this is a kind of Jason vs Carrie affair and while it's an interesting idea I just wasn't convinced by it, it didn't quite work for me. There is a high body count but sadly very little gore, probably down to censorship. On the plus side there's a fair amount of female nudity and part 7 is when Kane Hodder made his debut playing Jason, a role that he made his own. It's a pity that from this point the series went down hill but I'm a fan and if they'd made a hundred Friday's I'd watch them all!

Jason rises again to stab, slice and sever the partygoing youths of Crystal Lake. This time, he stares down with a fellow supernatural: Tina, a troubled young woman with telekinetic abilities and an equally tragic history with the location. Points for shaking up the formula a tad, but this gimmick is just as ham-fisted and overplayed as everything else the series has tried to freshen itself up. Along with Tina's bad floating-toaster act, we still get the requisite amount of shallow teenage stereotypes - boring characters who don't really deserve their fate but certainly won't be mourned - and magical Jason hide-and-seek performances. Once again crippled by the censors, the kills are all cut short, and without those frequent, bloody, money shots to rely on, there's really no reason to bother tuning in. This entry's final surprise - a callback to the first film that's already been aped once or twice before - is so snort-inducingly bad I can't believe it actually got the green light. Stupid, toothless, time-wasting schlock.

Tina Shepard was just a little girl when she last saw crystal lake and the memories still haunt her until her preteen days. She returns to face her fears and put them to rest forever.I enjoyed this one the most next to 2 in the series for the script, plot, lightning, costumes and characters.It felt like I was watching the kids from 90210 face Jason in the woods and try to survive the night.Surprisingly, this was the most edited film in the series today yet it flows naturally. I felt I was there going through the adventure with the teens and found myself checking over my shoulder to see if a mad man with an axe was really there.It really was the last great Friday to go out on and I loved every moment. Give it a chance. It may become your favorite to.

I am actually surprised with this one, it's actually quite good. This film picks up were Jason Lives left off supposedly. In this movie Jason meets Tina, a girl with Telekinesis. When she was very young she got so mad at her father, she caused his death, and released Jason from his watery grave. It's about 10 years later and Tina has returned to Crystal Lake with her Mother. There she is to undergo therapy with her Dr.. Her doctor is Dr. Crews(Terry Kiser) who is a sleaze. He doesn't tend to help her, only to keep her thinking she is crazy. She refers to her Dr. as Bad News Crews, which is fitting. When she arrives back at the cabin strange images begin. The cabin is where it all started, with her father and Jason. Once there she meets Nick, who befriends her. He is really nice and could care less about her past. The some of the others, like Melissa hate her; and are really mean to her. Nick and Tina form a bond, she tells him about her past and he tells her his. To him those so called friends aren't his. He is just there for is brother's surprise birthday party. Tina begins seeing visions of his friends getting murdered by Jason. One of the first is the vision of Nicks brother, and she tells Nick. Then she sees Jason with a type of spike impaled into her mother's cabin. She tells Crews, he doesn't believe her, and wants her re-committed. Even though he knows the truth, it really happened. Her visions are real and Jason is back She is the only one who can stop him with her powers. This film is pretty good, and I can't believe it took me forever to see it. In fact I bought it through Ebay 4 5 bucks. I also got part 8 with came with it, but that one SUX. It's not the best of the Friday series, but The New Blood delivers. The best and will always be the best is part 1 and 2. This one is definitely worth Ur 1 hr 40 minutes, if U like it it's a great buy. I will let you be the judge, but for a sequel I like it. THX, Kris L. CocKayne
