| My favorite Friday movie |
The movie starts off with our heroine from the last Friday the 13th in her apartment. She is feeling a little bit scared by being alone in her dark, empty apartment. What happens next? Well, you will have to see the movie to find out.
The next day we are introduced to the rest of main characters of this film. We are treated to yet another camp setting. Things go well for awhile until murders start to happen. People are disposed of left and right. Who is the one doing all of the murders? Is it the killer from the first movie?
This movie is great from start to finish. It held my interest all the way through. I hadn't seen this movie in quite a few years and remembered that this movie always seemed to be my favorite Friday movie and this time it didn't dissapoint. I loved hearing the speculation some characters had about an urban legend that was supposedly lurking in the woods.
This movie really has an early 80's feel to it, which I like. Right now I am working on building a time machine and when it is complete I plan on going back in time during the filming of this movie. I will warn the producers to save as much of the extra footage as they can so that in the future the rest of us will be able to watch the extra scenes to our heart's delight.

| Good Flick! |
| The Very Best of the sequels, BUT... |
I think there is nothing much more to say about this otherwise fine example of the 1980's slasher genre. You can find so many previous reviews concerning the plot, contents etc. of this film right here in Amazon... However, for the full uncut version I would give 5 stars right away!
Best regards to you all folks! August 13, 2008
| Jason takes the stage. |
Amy Steel is right up there with Jamie Lee Curtis as all time scream queen.
This is the last Friday I'm giving five stars.
The idea of Jason running around the woods as some crazed, hillbilly is brilliant.
In later Fridays he bacame more cartoonish.
The direction is great, the acting is good considering it's a slasher movie.
All in all I'd say this is the best of the series hands down.
And the ending???
They show Jason's face, it gave me nightmares as a kid and still does.
The music is some of the best in horror, Friday 2 is, like part 1, a classic and a must see.
Highly recommended!!! June 20, 2008
