Review of Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan (1989) by Tim P — 02 Nov 2007
No lightning bolts or other wacky revivals in the beginning of this one. An anchor breaks Jason loose from his water boulder jail and he hitches a ride to New York. I'll give away the only good parts of this movie right here. A boxer challenges Jason to a boxing match on a rooftop. Jason punches his head off.... and it falls 5 stories into a dumpster. Pretty funny.
What kills Jason in the end? The N.Y. sewer system. Again, it rose a chuckle from me. Now you don't have to spend 90 minutes with this trash. Thank me later.
