The horror genre has no class. I hate horror movies and will continue to hate them as long as movies like Jason X continue to come out.
Easily the worst movie of the year. And I don't want to hear "What were you expecting, this is JASON we're talking about," or any crap like that. There is no excuse for something this dumb when millions of dollars are being spent. With this movie's budget, New Line could have probably made a decent, and original, sci-fi movie. But NO! Some exec was like "We can just make another Jason movie and market the hell out of it and make it look cool! The teeny boppers will love it!"
There are so many things about this movie that don't make sense. Fist of all, in the beginning, Jason is somehow captured. This must have been a pretty difficult task, seeing as he's the deadliest killer the world has ever known. So you think they'd have about a hundred guards watching him right? No! Of course not! That would make sense. Instead, they have ONE guy watching him. So of course Jason escapes and mayhem ensues. Etc, etc. Fast forward to four hundred and fifty years in the future (!) to a highly advanced society that doesn't know what a hockey mask is, but they still know what DVDs are, and everything goes downhill from there.
Look, I don't expect every movie to be a magnificent work of art. But I do expect a little effort and a story that is consistent and logical to some extent. Jason X has absolutely nothing going in its favor. I would sooner poke my eyes for 90 minutes than to sit through this crap again.
