Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Amateur butcher and enthusiastic hockey fan Jason Vorhees is back in business, and business is good. Can a plucky young boy stop the madness before Camp Crystal Lake's population report takes yet another machete-aided dip? The stalk-and-slash formula was pretty narcoleptic by this point, but this otherwise humdrum entry is distinguished by some unusual casting choices (Crispin Glover as a stud in training? Corey Feldman as a genius?) and the splattery return of makeup master Tom Savini. The fact that this installment was titled The Final Chapter may seem to contradict the existence of the numerous sequels that followed, but it's not as if logic was ever this series' strong point to begin with. --Andrew Wright

Kimberly Beck, Corey Feldman, Peter Barton, Crispin Glover, Ted White star. 91 min. Widescreen; Soundtracks: English mono, French; Subtitles: English; theatrical trailer.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Ted...where the hell is the corkscrew?? TED???", May 17, 2005
Format:DVD
There was a time, back in the day, when the "Friday the 13th" movies were meant to scare you, not make you laugh. No movie in the entire series does this better that "Friday the 13th Part 4: The Final Chapter". This is the DEFINITIVE "Friday the 13th" movie.

Part 4 has the best of everything!! Story, cast,(Corey Feldman, Crispin Glover, Lawrence Monoson), graphic violence, and inventive killings.

Immediately picking up where "Friday the 13th Part 3" (the 2nd best of the series), "Friday the 13th Part 4" was such a brilliant addition to the franchise. For those who haven't seen the series, Part 4 is not a bad place to start, or finish. We get a great little campfire story (courtesy of Part 2) and a lot of great death sequences (from the 3 movies past) within the first 5 minutes. We also get real acting, & actual character development with the "Final Chapter". This was the last movie in the series that was actually made AS a horror film, and not as a cult film. And this movie does scare!

The killings in the "Final Chapter" are original and beautifully executed. Corkscrew to hand-then cleaver to face, spear gun right in the groin (YEAH BABY), banana vomiting, and 2 WONDERFUL crashing through the window sequences (one with twin Tina, the other with Trish) that still manages to frighten me to this day. The shower seen is pretty awesome as well, and even the dog isn't safe in this one! Awesome!!

After Part 4, the franchise became almost a joke, and the films that followed are nothing but camp. They are still good and watch able, but they weren't intended to scare the heck out of ya!

"Friday the 13th Part 4: The Final Chapter" does it all, time and time again. This film has gone under rated and without credit for many years. Many people say that the original "Friday the 13th" was the best, but I highly beg to differ. Part 1 WAS the original, but it's somewhat slow paced, and Tom Savini's masterful special effects are much more evident in Part 4. Tom was really on top of his game by the time "The Final Chapter" went into production.
Part 1 has the scariest ending, I'll give it that.

If you want to see Jason at his peak, when he was a total bad-boy and really did some butt kicking, then look no further than this classic film in horror cinema!

This really was "The Final Chapter"; in more ways than one.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Friday Movie February 18, 2008
Format:DVD
This is by far the best Friday the 13th movie of them all. If you only buy one out of the group, make it this one. I can remember when this movie hit the theaters. I was there on opening night. There were so many people in the theater that the ushers had to keep coming in to advise everyone to move over towards the right to allow more people in. Once the movie actually started the opening scenes were all flashbacks to previous Friday movies which caused the audience to scream at every scene. This sent the theater manager into action. They actually stopped the film and turned the lights on. The manager came down front and made a statement. He stated that if we didn't keep down the screaming that they would stop the movie and ask everyone to leave. I guess the theaters on each side of ours were complaining that we were too loud. That was awesome! This movie is great, forget the fact that this is the fourth in a franchise that has some bad entries. A great movie from the greatest of eras regarding the horror genre.

The Final Chapter has one of the most intense chase scenes in the history of horror films with Kimberly Beck as the heroine trying to escape Jason's clutches and Corey Feldman using a more psychological approach to defeat him. I love all of the Friday the 13th films up through part 7 which featured a telekenesis angle (even part 5 with a Jason imposter was entertaining). Part 8 was watchable but began the downfall of the series with Jason leaving Crystal Lake for Manhattan and eventually ending up in space. These types of films should always stick to their roots because that is what made them so popular to begin with. The Final Chapter has Jason in his scariest form and Crystal Lake looks great in the midst of a rainstorm which helps set the tone and atmosphere of chaos to come. The best acting is supplied by Kimberly Beck, everyone else is simply mediocre to poor but the suspense and thrills are all there. This would also mark the end of the deformed "man-like" Jason before he ended up as a zombie-type who could not be killed.

Here are the details for the new Deluxe Edition:

Audio commentary by director Joseph Zito, screenwriter Barney Cohen and editor Joel Goodman
* Fan commentary by Adam Green and Joe Lynch
* Slashed scenes
* The Lost Ending
* Jason's Unlucky Day: 25 Years After FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE FINAL CHAPTER

F13 IV : Deluxe Edition?
If we're just talking DVDs, there's a bare-bones edition for every movie in the series with trailers only; then there's a Camp Crystal Lake Box Set with a bonus disc of extras, and then there's the Deluxe Edition DVDs of each movie. I have noticed the quality of picture/sound improving with each... Read more

Blu Ray release date?
That would be so awesome to have the rest of the F13 Deluxe Editions on Blu-Ray! I hate when a company starts to convert them and stops when half done. Same thing goes for New Line!
