spoiler . spoiler . spoiler . spoiler . spoiler . spoiler . i do not share this opinion and but i can see why many fan of the series say that this ninth film be the bad in the series . the jason vorhees saga start in the early 80 . spread over 8 film and jason ( and his mother ) have kill almost 100 people in very horrible way . jason go to hell start with a complete new theory . wich be pretty dumb and i will give it that . but still and there as much blood and terror represent in this film a there be in all the other ( to say the least and in fact ) accord to a bountyhunter ( who be a pretty good maniac himself ) and jason can be kill for good if a relative of his destroy his heart . if they do not and jason come to life again and shall go on kill till eternity . until jason find a family member of his and he keep on change body . this twist give to his personality kill the magic that be friday the 13th a bit and that much be true . i never be a giant fan of the series . i have see them all and like them but i never agree with the statement that friday the 13th be the best series in horror . now and i do know a lot of people who think that jason be as important to horror a christopher columbus be to geography and so they think this ninth installment in the series never should have be make . if youre a horror lover in general and you can still enjoy the huge amount of bloody slaughter without pay much attention to the storyline . if youre a diehard jason vorhees fan ( or want to become one ) . watch the whole series in a row and judge for yourself if this movie can be consider a blasphemy or not . one other thing be very obvious about this movie represent it try to be more funny than it predecessor and make several attempt to spoof the genre and the most famous slasher collegues of jason . for example and when a cop ask where steven be and the girl answer he in front of the myers house . funny and huh . also and the necronomicon lie in jason basement and when he finally die and his hockey mask be grab away by the hand of freddy krueger himself . so and if you like a good amount of trivia to come with your horror . the final friday would not let you down .
