It's Friday the 13th and you know what that means. We're continuing our critical look at our favorite of the slasher movie franchises, Friday the 13th. Jason is back, wouldn't you know it? He has, without explanation, endured an axe wound to the head and made his way back to his home turf of Crystal Lake for another round of murder and mayhem. By 1983 the slasher movie wave crashed and by 1984 it was receding but the kids just couldn't stay away as The Final Chapter promised one last showdown for the ages. Little did they know about the fuel that moves the Hollywood machinery and the effect that a solid box office return can have. Chop Jason up into little pieces all you like, they'll always find a new way to bring him back for another movie.
This movie holds a special place in Bryan's heart but then again, so did part 2. The Final Chapter may be the most cynical of the Friday the 13th sequels. How does it hold up to Bring Me The Axe scrutiny? You'll have to listen to find out!
