Friday the 13th : The films ranked

The films ranked

As a serious Jason Voorhees fan I want to rank the films as I see them. What do you think? Also, what is your favorite Jason screen death? Mine is from "The Final Chapter" when Horshack from "Welcome Back Kotter" has his heart punched out, then falls into a coffin. OMG is that a CLASSIC!!

1) The Final Chapter (Part 4)
2) Jason Lives (Part 6)
3) A New Beginning (Part 5)
4) The New Blood (Part 7)
5) Part 3 (in 3-D Lol!)
6) Friday the 13th
7) Part 2
8) Jason Takes Manhattan

Did not rank the New Line Cinema trio. But if I did, it would be:

1) Jason Goes To Hell
2) Freddy Vs. Jason
3) Jason X

Re: The films ranked

Sleeping bag kill

1. New Blood tied with Jason X
2. Jason Takes Manhattan
3. Jason Lives
4. A New Beginning
5. Part 2
6. Original
7. 3D

Honourable kill mention goes to liquid nitrogen in X

My favourites are just my own opinions and should not reflect anything. Or something.

Re: The films ranked

Favourite death...

Re: The films ranked

1. The Final Chapter
2. Part 2
3. First
4. Part 3D
5. The New Blood
6. A New Beginning
7. Jason Lives (never really was a fan of this one)
8. Jason Goes on a Cruise

The rest are all bollocks and I refuse to include them in my rankings. ;-)

Re: The films ranked

I'll admit, my list is subject to change from time to time. For instance, when I was a kid, Part 3 was my favorite and I found Part 2 pretty lackluster. And until a few years ago, I outright disliked Part 5. But at this moment, my list is as follows:

1. Final Chapter
2. Original
3. 2
4. Jason Lives
5. 3D
6. New Beginning
7. New Blood (This has got to be the coolest looking Jason, especially when the mask comes off!)
8. Remake
9. Jason Takes Manhattan
10. FvsJ
11. X
12. Jason Goes To Hell

Honestly, I could probably rearrange the bottom five in any particular order, because I find them interchangeably underwhelming.

Favorite Kill: Sleeping bag meets tree!

And from one big Friday fan to another, I'd be remiss if I didn't point out the your favorite kill is from Jason Lives, not Final Chapter. Not trying to be a d!ck, just being a geek.

Re: The films ranked

Wow, These are interesting. I don't think i've ever seen a list that has Part 8 in their top 5. Along with 7 too.

Owlfy. what makes you like those more than 4 and 6?

7 - I really enjoyed the telekinesis plot and Lar Park-Lincoln as Tina. It was a slightly different tale compared to some of the others and it stood out.

8 - Was a complete blast. It was cheesy, humorous, and Jason's mannerisms were amusing. It's like a fun road-trip film only on water.

4 - A huge disappointment after the excellent 2 and 3. I found it boring and Corey Feldman was obnoxiously bad. The ending with him saying "die, die, die" while hacking away at Jason was ridiculous.

6 - I felt Tommy Jarvis wasn't an interesting enough character to bring back AGAIN. I gave it a 6 only because of the awesome ending with Tommy pouring fuel in the water and battling Jason.

Re: The films ranked

My list isn't really in terms of quality, it's more how much I enjoyed them.

1. A New Beginning. It's so over the top and ridiculous, but it's so fun. I have a blast watching it. Wish the MPAA wouldn't have edited so many kills.

2. The Final Chapter. Great kills and cool characters, I love the score and the dark tone of it. Ted White was my favorite "Jason" of the series.

3. Jason Lives. Another fun movie, has a good mix of horror and humor. Alice Cooper contributing music to this one was great.

4. Part 2. Jason's big debut, I liked the characters and the kills. Always seems to be a popular title with F13 fans.

5. Part 1. Seems a little low on the list, but I do love this one too. Without it, everything else is nonexistent.

6. Part 3. The hockey mask is born. This one can be a little boring but overall I like it. Haven't seen it in a while, so I have to revisit it soon.

7. The New Blood. Another film where the MPAA had no mercy. This along with part 5 are the ones I would like to see uncut the most. This is the last one I can say I really liked.

8. Remake. Nothing really special about it, but as far as remakes go it's alright. Certainly better than the NOES remake IMO.

9. Jason Takes Manhattan. The series has jumped the shark at this point, not a huge fan of this one at all, but I don't hate it.

10. Freddy vs Jason. Could have and should have been so much more. Jason is suddenly afraid of water? Huh?

11. Jason Goes to Hell. The only good thing about this movie was the infamous tent scene.

12. Jason X. Hate it, always have, always will.

Re: The films ranked

The Best
Part 3: I've always loved Shelly, and by far one of the best murders is the kid doing the handstand.
Part 2: Love Bag head Jason, and another memorable kill is the kid in the wheelchair
Part 1: kevin Bacon and Strip Monopoly
Part 4: Crispin Glover & Lawrence Monoson steal the show
Part 6: zombie Jason !
Part 8: had some funny *beep* and memorable death is the black boxer gets his head punched off
The Worst
Freddy vs Jason: More Freddy than Jason
Part 7: Psychic chick Blah
Part 5: Ted the ambulance driver is the killer what a crock of *beep* was so pissed when I saw this in the theater
Jason X: lame..terminator Jason
Jason Goes to Hell: Hokey...and not a slasher film...Had Jay actually gone to hell..well then...not some slug fest
The 2009 Remake in my opinion sucked so bad I walked out of this film
