Well, hello there, kind folks. If you’re visiting this blog of mine, I presume that you have a certain interest in the cinema. As for me, even since my early childhood, I have had a deep love of everything related to movies and television. As far as I can remember, I have been more at ease in front of a screen than in the yard, outside, playing. It is a great way to travel, though other people’s stories, without having to foot any kind of steep bill. Over the years, I feel that movie-watching has even fuelled my own creativity.

All that being said, I welcome you in my Cinephile’s Nest. I hope you enjoy it here, feel free to come back at any time. Here you will find reviews of current movies and older ones. TV shows also. Some classics that have remained some of my favourites, some that have disappointed me. I will use a very basic star (*) system to grade them from 1 to 5 (5 being sliced bread level). Remember, these are just my tastes. I will try to explain in each review what I liked about these particular movies, without giving spoilers.

Il y aura aussi des critiques en français pour les films francophones, car j'aime également le cinéma dans ma langue maternelle. Avant d'apprendre l'anglais, plus jeune, je louais des tonnes de films traduits en français, surtout ceux de Bud Spencer et Terrence Hill. Ma mère a eu le choc de sa vie lorsqu'un jour, dans la boîte d'un de ces films, Deep Throat avait malencontreusement inséré. Une expérience formatrice pour le jeune cinéphile que je suis.

Bienvenue à tous, amusez-vous bien.

I welcome you all here, enjoy yourself.

Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday (1993)

 
Genre: Horror
Directed by: Adam Marcus
Starring: John D. LeMay, Kari Keegan, Steven Williams, Kane Hodder
Running time: 90 minutes

 


Jason Voorhees is trapped and killed by an undercover group of FBI agents and his remains are sent to the morgue, but his heart, that is still beating, starts inhabiting various bodies to go on a killing spree while looking for the few surviving family members he has left. It needs to enter the body of a family member so that Jason can live again, and only a family member can truly stop it from happening.

This movie is just bad. I actually felt dirty after watching it. The acting is crappy and the story is a mess and makes no sense. Really, filmmaking went to hell with Jason here. While the pointless nudity and the violence of the unrated version can be fun, it is not enough to give this title any merit. This was the ninth installment of the original series, and it should have died long before it got to that point. And the overkill attempt at gore was not entertaining either.
