[ include a spoiler ] strangely enough and it be not often that jason himself put up an appearance in the fourth entry of the series . why he be absent from such a large chunk of the film and i can not be sure and but from a financial point of view and isn not that a bit counterproductive . after all and that what the fan pay to see and jason kill people and isn not that right . his absence reveal the movie for what it be represent a bad teen melodrama that happen to guest star jason . most of the character be so annoy that we actually root for jason to kill them and and so he do and but not nearly soon enough . that the problem here while there not enough slasher action to sustain such a thin plot . the result represent a major bore . grant and corey feldman and crispin glover have some appeal . makeup artist tom savini obviously have a hand in the script and a feldman be portray a a child prodigy with an interest in special effect . glover generate some sympathy a a lonely young man . savini himself do a good job craft jason gruesome demise . however and these element aren not enough to prevent the film from be a tired rehash . by now and it be useless to comment on the fact that paramount lie when they say it be the last . jason simply can not die and and we must live with that fact of life . ( out of ) release by paramount picture .
