This new Friday the 13th is awesome, and definitly my favourite out of all the Friday the 13th films. This films again shows him with his mask, his machete and all his classic horror features.

If you're a fan of horror, then you will love this film. It is scary and it is jumpy. I recall 'jumping' out of my seat once, and it was a jump at that. Everything's quiet and calming down and boom, sharp loud sound effects and a machete out of no where and I was in the air!

This film shows you where Jason finds his classic mask, and he again uses his machete as his primary weapon, however I must tell you that during the movie he also uses a Bow and arrow to kill a certain person on a boat and it was so cool!

Also, when this film starts you settle into all the characters and their story etc.. but then within 10 minutes pretty much all of them are dead, so your like.. "A 10 minute film!? What!?" But then later you find out that was just the introduction and two new storylines unravel around you and you then settle into two new different storys that bump into each other along the way.

I loved this film. The story was good, a man looking for his missing sister while being hunted by Jason. The performances by the actors and actresses were good too, you got a real sense of fear off them and everything just worked perfectly.
Special effects were great, it really looked like that poor woman got a machete in the head!, and a poor woman burning :(

Compared to the earlier Friday the 13th films, I loved this film the most. It's modern, up-to-date and just epic. I would recommend this film to everyone and anyone. I really did like it.

Even if you're not a big fan of horror but fancy a change, watch this movie. It's scary and makes you jump. It has got some sexual scenes in it and some gory parts aswell.

Thanks for reading and I hope you watch this movie! - Connor
