Review of Friday the 13th Part III (1982) by Matthew F. J — 29 Mar 2015
I have no doubt wahching it in Original 3D must be a riot but unfortunately this third episode is pretty lame compared to the first two films. Opting for an all American cool/weed smoker/teenage babes approach, the film turns into a carnival of clichés, stupid dialogues and total lack of focus for an episode way too relax and on the lose.
The last 30" benefit from some more tense and stressing moments but overall it's pretty disappointing compared with the classic and sharp direction demonstrated in the first and second acts. Even if this episode remain a lovely cult object for it's gore scenes and eye piping 3D, it's overall disappointing on the quality level, a defect that all the following sequels of the franchise share.
