Meurtres en 3 dimensions

It took 2 films to get to Jason, 3 films to get to his mask, 6 films to get the camera angles and play on the foreground/background, and 7 films to get to decent music. You have to admire the F13 franchise, it may be slow, dull, and stupid, but at least it's persistent.

To reiterate, the highlight of this film is Jason getting his hockey maks and putting it on. That's it. If we compare it to number two, we get a great ending. If we hold it up to normal standards it's just a plain "eh, right, whatever" ending. But at least it's not some pathetically idiotic BS stunt that would only work to destroy any intimidation Jason might have had. After F13pt2, I'd wouldn't be surprised if shadow puppets could distract the killer.

Of course, this is assuming you can get past the title "F13pt3: 3d" - oh, how incredibly clever. 3 . . . 3D . . . never would have saw that fad coming. Then can you bear to sit through the opening credits with cheesy 3D lettering and godawful music that should have been dead before this film. It's not as bad or annoying as the unbearable crap in Jason Lives, but still very much cringeworthy. Ironic style and even cultural twists are great in music, but not this. God no, not this.

Jason kills, kills some more, then kills some more. You hear the ch-ch-ch-ha-ha-ha. Camp Crystal Lake. Lots of victims. Something jumping out of the lake again (wow, didn't see that coming for the third time). All these the wonderful traits are strangely found in every F13 making it pretty much indistiguishable from the other nine making it pretty pointless to watch this one unless you're really bored, are obsessed with horror and have to see 'em all, actually like this trash, absolutely have to see the 15 seconds it takes for Jason to get his hocky mask and put it on. Yeah, that last one's worth 90 minutes of my life and the $1.09 I spent on the rental .. . oy.

The third film in the Friday series demonstrates the fact that Jason cannot be dispatched with ease. In fact he seems pretty damned indestructible. There is a group of friends hanging out at a cabin around Crystal Lake, and Jason is not having it. This was originally in 3D, but it works just as well in 2D. You will have to overlook the obvious attempts to make the most of the 3D film though. A very solid entry into the franchise and we get to see Jason claiming his hockey mask.

There's so much I love about this movie. It's definitely a step up from the last. The setup is the same as Jason targets a new group of druggie, horny teens but this time in 3D. The kills are great. The eye popping scene is the best and the effort put into the 3D effects is really impressive and goofy. From the get go I absolutely loved the disco theme. The acting is pretty bad but in a fun campy way. The final girl is mostly useless but hilarious as she faces Jason down. I love the bikers and the movie is overly entertaining and highly successful mostly because it's not aiming very high. Plus this is the one where he finally gets his iconic mask

3.5/5

as one of the first horror movies i ever viewed(and the first friday movie i ever saw!!)it is still my favourite horror movie to date! although the friday movies have taken a battering over the years,being typcast as a typical slasher movie or an immataion of halloween,friday the 13th 3 is reccomended viewing for any horror fan(as are the first 4 movies in the friday series) it starts were part2 leaves off then enter some funky music(hot ice)and the 3-d images and you certainly dont think your watching a friday movie!until the movie starts!grainy and dark adds to the atmosphere as does the excellent sound track(along with the traditional ki-ki-ki-ma-ma-ma!)then the killing begins!!!this is the one were jason gets his hockey mask,this is the most intense friday and this has the best ending of a friday movie! i strongley recommend that if you have seen any of the friday series this ones a must!or if your just a horror fan in genral then check it out!put in the dvd,dim the lights,grab the pop-corn and join jason in the woods!!!

The last of the scary ones, "Friday the 13th Part 3: 3D" is one of the best in the series. The plot does have some holes in it and sometimes the acting leaves a lot to be desired, but the interesting component of the film is its use of 3-D. Don't let the 3-D aspect fool you into thinking the movie is bad (as in "Jaws 3-D" & "Amityville 3-D"). The film is great; as far as these type of slasher flicks go. Highly recommended.
