Genre: Horror
Directed by: Steve Miner
Starring: Dana Kimmell, Paul Krafka, Tracie Savage
After the events of the second film, an injured Jason Voorhees take
refuge in the area near Crystal Lake. He kills a store owner and his wife for a
change of clothes. When Chris Higgins and a group of her friends come to the
area for a weekend away of partying and fun, Jason goes back on the hunt trying
to kill them off one by one.
This is the first film where Jason Voorhees appears with the infamous hockey mask, that became a huge part of his look and of the mystique of the franchise. What a great choice it was. In the second film, Jason looked a scared kid sneaking around. Here, he looks like a true monster and like a dangerous predator. In terms of horror movie effectiveness, it was a solid move.
With this third installment in the franchise, they also managed to write better material and to have better actors to deliver it on screen. Overall, this is a very entertaining horror movie.
