5/10
Ridiculous, but enjoyable.
16 February 2013
This film is overly comedic, but feels more satisfying than part 5. Now at the beginning of this film I could tell something was wrong, Tommy is a completely different person, he is no longer quite and secluded. Not to mention what happened at the ending of part 5 somehow didn't get incorporated into this, I think they just chose to ignore part 5.

This film is pretty over the top, with the writing and some of the deaths. One death has a guy getting his arm ripped off and then being flung into a tree, leaving a bloody smiley face imprint. There was a lot of pointless kills, but I'm not complaining. This film is one of the bloodiest in the series, there is a cabin actually painted in blood, that was awesome. There's a scene where a guy looks at the camera and starts talking to it. The film is treading old water with bringing back the camp counsellors. The final act at the camp looked absolutely beautiful, the woods, cabins, lighting, leaves falling, it all looked great. Great atmosphere during this part. There was one freaky part where Jason is looking through the window into the kids cabin, imagine if you actually saw that. My biggest complaint was the Tommy character, I prefer part 5's Tommy better. I also find it strange how the lead actress is so excited and cheery all the time.

The film is enjoyable, I still think the first four parts were the best, but this one is pretty fun.
