Friday the 13th Vengeance 2: Bloodlines

Hardly a love letter to the original Friday films, this badly acted and completely loveless Spin-off. Jason is boring instead of the menacing killing machine we all love. The characters are utterly stupid, and there is not even the slightest trace of suspense to be found. I guess the people that gave this film high ratings, were involved in the making of this film. I give 2 stars only for a few nice kills, and the appereance of Thom Matthews. A sleep inducing mess. Compared to this movie Jason Goes To Hell looks like a masterpiece. Obviously the first part is even worse, so I won't even bother to watch that.

I don't know what I expected, I think I assumed the worst but I didn't think it would actually be this bad.

The acting is school nativity play level.

The visuals are bowling shoe ugly.

The script is terrible, it doesn't know if it wants to be super serious or comedic and some of the lines I have to assume were contributions from the writers kid because I struggle to believe that an adult wrote that.

Jason looks awful, when he turns to the side you can see these dreadful oversized plastic teeth that are so far from believable it looks like something out of a Hammer Horror movie.

And then the guy who plays Voorhees dad? Wow, don't ever let him in front of a camera again!

Excellent movie and a dignified entry into the Voorhees universe, even though it's "just" a fan film. The movie picks up right where the first one ended and even though it starts out a bit slow, it pretty soon transforms itself into slay fest -22. Jason kills people in a wide variety of gory ways and he looks fantastic doing it. Hands, machete, axe, scythe and arrows, this killer is no stranger to the art of death and this film really puts his abilities on full display. It is also loaded with guest actors. Some, friday the 13th alumni themselves and others are just various people from the field of entertainment. The FX in this flick, besides being gory as all hell, are slightly above average and did satisfy this old gorehound. If you haven't gotten around to it yet, I strongly suggest that you do see it. Particularly if you are a fan of old "maggothead", low budget gore and a brutal A F killer in a hockeymask. It's an intense ride.

I thoroughly enjoyed this film,good story and great characters,plus good effects for a fan film .cj graham is awesome as Jason's father. I enjoyed it more than the the first film.the body count is high and Jason brooks plays jason very well,there are a lot of good kills in the film,and the effects are a lot better than the recent jeepers creepers film.jason brooks direction is good and I look forward to see what he does next.definitely watch this film you won't be disappointed ,a lot of people slate fan films but until they bring Jason back to the big screen these are the only way to see Jason in new stories thanks to these talented people.

This film hits on so many different levels. The way the camera work was done is top notch quality and the expressions displayed from the characters keeps you on the edge of your seat.

If you're a horror fan, Friday the 13th fan or Jason Voorhees fan then this one is for you!

This review is coming from a horror lover and someone who has been in love with the F13 franchise for nearly 30 years of my life.

The cast and characters poured their heart into their roles and you can tell scene by scene as to how important this film was to each of them. You won't be disappointed!

You wanna definitely watch this and dig right in... don't forget your popcorn!
