Friday the 13th, Part VII - The New Blood (1988)

A philosophical quandary: when we truly get a glimpse behind the mask, do we like what we see? This eternal question is directly addressed in chapter 7 of the famed Friday the 13th gross-out series. Here, indestructible killing machine Jason meets his match in the form of a telekinetic teenage girl. Yes, it's "Carrie Goes Camping," although the young lady with special powers might have picked a better vacation spot than Crystal Lake, which has an awful track record for young blondes in tight jeans. This installment is exactly no better or worse than the previous Jason-o-ramas, with the added bonus of a climax in which the imperturbable Mr. Voorhees actually duels someone with supernatural gifts to rival his own. Yes, he does lose his hockey mask (the heroine mind-wills it to pop off), and the results ain't pretty--but then, neither is the Friday the 13th franchise. --Robert Horton Amazon.com

CARRIE VS. JASON....PLACE YOUR BETS!!!

This is a pretty good sequel. It's a lot better than Part V, but isn't as good as Part VI. Tina has telekinetic powers and accidentally resurrects Jason. She has to battle him using her powers like Carrie at the Prom! It's awesome! It's also cool that we see what Jason looks like. He is more of a monster now. If you love Carrie, and the Friday the 13th series, you'll love FRIDAY THE 13TH PART VII: THE NEW BLOOD!!! August 3, 2008

The funniest movie in the series.

You know, at this point the franchise just couldn't have gotten any worse.
No we have a psychic going up against Jason.
What is unintentionally the most hilarious movie in the series, we get to see Jason get smacked around by a telekinetic teenage girl.
The fights between her and Jason are some of the funniest in Hollywood history.
The acting is absurdly bad, the directing is even worse.
The music stinks.
This movie falls into the category of "It's sooooo bad, it's good"
I recommend part one and two for their masterful presentation.
This one, believe or not I'm giving it three stars just because it's so ridiculous, it's fun to watch.
Expect to lose a few IQ point by the time it's finished though.
A psychic brings Jason back from the dead.
GIMME A BREAK!!!!!!!
Still........... recommended.
Just get ready to laugh and not jump.

Decent film with the best Jason actor in the series

Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood is by no means a great but it's decent. The producers tie the film to the last sequel pretty good and the whole Jason v.s. Carrie plot is also cool. The film had one really funny death where Jason picks up a lady in a sleeping bag and slams her into a tree. April 8, 2008

The Last Good Friday...

This was a good horror film. Lar Park Lincoln is very sweet with the fans, and she did an excellent job as Tina. It was nice to see Terry Kiser play the evil Dr. Kruse. Although I liked the look of Jason better in part 3 and 4, he looked scary here too. People often call this the "Carrie vs. Jason," Friday film. You also have the mean girl who quickly learns not to mess with a person who possesses telekenetic powers after her pearl necklace busts to pieces. I did not care for part 8 when Jason takes Manhatten and Jason Goes to Hell had an interesting new twist but it was not the same. Jason X is definitely the worst of them all. I'm looking forward to the new one coming out next year. Hopefully they will go back to the basics before it gets any more ridiculous. I know gore hounds are upset that some of the more graphic scenes were cut. Gore is not really my thing so that does not bother me. My favorites are the original and part 3 but this one is a very close second! 4 stars March 24, 2008

JASON MEETS HIS MATCH!!

Tina Shepherd is a girl that has supernatural powers, Telekinesis is the actual term for the powers she has.
Her & her mom & her doctor are going to need those powers to make it out of the weekend their about to spend at Crystal Lake.
While feeling guilt about her fathers death that happened many years ago, she tries to bring him back, instead she frees JASON from his watery grave where we left off from part 6.
Tina Faints after seeing JASON break the top of the water.
As JASON walks out of the water Ms. Shepherd & the doctor run to see if Tina is OK.
Jason's first victim is a couple that have broken down on the side of the road, they're trying to get to a birthday party they won't make it on time in fact they won't ever make it there.
So they decide to walk the rest of the on the way the guy decides to make a pit stop, while taking a piss Jason kill his girlfriend as he's walking back to her he sees that she's been stabbed to death, he sees Jason coming at him he starts to run Jason pull the object out of the girl and starts to chase the guy.
All the sudden you see the object that was in Jason's hand come fling through the air and hit the guy in the back he falls to the ground Jason catches up with him, picks him up with the object and throws him off the object back to the ground.
Jason pretty much makes a blood bath out of everyone until he comes up against Tina, he quickly figures out that he's up against something that he can't kill.
A supernatural force that is created when Tina's emotions are at their peak you guessed it she uses her power against Jason.
She chokes, burns and blows him up and he still doesn't die.
Finally she brings the right father back and he pulls Jason back in to the lake and saves the day.
I rate this movie a 8 from 1to10!! March 24, 2008
