04.16.25 | Jason X is the purest of schlock. |
CaliggyJack
04.16.25 | Jason X is the Wendy's of slasher movies.
And boy do I love Wendys |
bellovddd
04.16.25 | Friday 4 and Friday 6 are the best! Jason X is a classic in its own right |
Aerisavion
04.16.25 | The Jason X novelisation is surprisingly good, though - it takes itself a bit more seriously. |

Gameofmetal
04.16.25 | Have seen the first 4, really like 2 and 4, especially 2. Did not like 1 and 3 at all. |

I didn't even know there was a novelisation |
Hyperion1001
04.16.25 | the original is the closest to being a real movie but as far as the best of the formula, final chapter is a pretty clear #1
i always have a soft spot for 2 thought cause sackhead Jason rocks and Amy steel is the best final girl in the franchise. |

04.16.25 | jason lives is 1 ainec |
Hyperion1001
04.16.25 | Jason lives is a good movie but not really a good Friday the 13th movie. |
DominionMM1
04.16.25 | It certainly has the self awareness and tongue in cheek humor that pretty much every other friday movie lacks |
DominionMM1
04.16.25 | and it has teenage frankenstein which is a total banger |
CaliggyJack
04.16.25 | Lmao |
Hyperion1001
04.16.25 | what makes these 80s slashers good is they’re played 100% straight with no irony or humor. it’s just not the same when the movie is winking at you. |
Futures
04.16.25 | jason lives is great and the only one out of the original run shot like a real movie. def my favorite. |

04.17.25 | "I didn't even know there was a novelisation"
There are technically five, if you count the actual novelisation and the sequels/secondary instalments:
Jason X
Jason X: The Experiment
Jason X: Planet of the Beast
Jason X: Death Moon
Jason X: To the Third Power
If you ever see a cheap Jason X novel written by Pat Cadigan, Nancy Kilpatrick or Alex Johnson, buy it. They're super rare and cost a fortune (easily more than $100 per book via most sellers). |

04.17.25 | Jason Lives and New Blood are way too low, but this is an acceptable ranking. |

04.17.25 | It's Thursday the 17th |

04.17.25 | true |
budgie
04.17.25 | who stoked for 28 years l8r |
CaliggyJack
04.17.25 | Trailer looked sick af |
budgie
04.17.25 | the first one from a while ago looked kinda bad but the last couple ones looked v interesting |
CaliggyJack
04.18.25 | The franchise has never had a bad movie so I'm not too worried.
And idc what people say, 28 Weeks Later is just as good as Days. |
TheSonomaDude
04.18.25 | A New Beginning is not that bad. It’s sorta the Halloween 3 of the franchise
The rest of this i mostly agree with. But i do have a softspot for Jason X. None of these movies are that great imo |
budgie
04.18.25 | i fully prefer 28 weeks to days these days |
Futures
04.18.25 | new beginning is basically a porn with not jason lol. it's definitely watchable.
i feel like x doesn't get enough credit for how clearly self aware it is. they knew exactly what they were making and had fun with it. |
Emim
04.18.25 | No 28 Fortnights later? Don't even get me started on 28 Months |
CaliggyJack
04.18.25 | @budgie I was afraid to say it but yeah I prefer Weeks nowadays too. |
budgie
04.18.25 | i remember when 28 weeks dropped it got panned for being a critique on american imperialism and the iraq war was still not taboo yet
now whenever the film gets namedropped in any community the responses are like "that film sucked but.. i... i cant... i dont remember why" |
CaliggyJack
04.18.25 | LMAO yep.
And if you even dare to say you feel Weeks is as good as Days you get flamed by Rage Virus infected Boyle fans. |
BAT
04.18.25 | jason x is a banger idgaf. but yeah part 4 is my tops, than 3/2. really watch them every 13th but the main ones that rarely make my rotation are jason goes to hell and part 7. wish they'd do a proper restoration of 7 buuut as is the final cut feels like it's edited for tv, some great atmosphere/camerawork though
new beginning&manhattan are lotta fun but slapped together coked out nonsense lol |
