Jason X (2001)
a painful death

I am going to keep this brief - as labouring over a review for this would be a fruitless waste of time for me and you.
Acting performances were typically laughable. As for the horror, we have all seen more frightening displays on the Disney channel. The suspense factor was butchered from several angles, not least by the seemingly randomised synthetic score and game-show type camera-work. The violence was bloody but not excessive, and may have been a little more thrilling if I was not completely unenthusiastic about the entire setup. Still nothing was gruesome enough to penetrate my scepticism.
Worst of all, the pitiable concept was not played up as a "Funny, cos its rubbish" gag. Even for a Friday 13th movie, Its just plain rubbish.
