Review of Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan (1989) by Casey C — 07 May 2012
It's actually quite amazing that a film titled Jason Takes Manhattan never really takes place in Manhattan. At least the Muppets kept their titular promise to bite the Big Apple. This is easily the most disappointing of the original.
..movies - which is quite an achievement when you consider that the overall quality of the franchise was hardly high enough to raise expectations to a level that would allow for disappointment. Poor acting as you expect and one to avoid watching.
The only thing good about this film is Kane Hodder as Jason, he just seems he's deep into his character and proven he can take on an iconic role...shame that's all the film can provide apart from some rubbish deaths.
Worst one yet.
