Hands down the worst in the entire series. Acting is worse than usual, the direction is boring and unimaginative, the "plot" spends way too much time on the boat and not enough in Manhattan, Jason seems to be capable of teleportation and toxic waste turns Jason back into a little boy with bad prosthetic makeup and a full head of black hair.

And I just gotta say, in a flashback a young Rennie was pulled under by a young Jason--wouldn't that make her somewhere between 20 and 40???? And how did a pleasure boat get into Crystal Lake? When did Crystal Lake move to the East coast? How can the filmmakers or even Hodder for that matter forget which eye Jason lost?
