Friday the 13th: Vengeance

The effects weren't bad at all! I think the movie was very entertaining, for being a fan made movie. nothing beats the original, but I don't think anyone would have expected this to be better. but as I said the effects were really good. thanks for an entertaining movie with my favorite killer jason.

Great storyline , not straying to far from the original source material .while trying to fill in the gaps and plot holes , loved the kills and Jason was on point , this pays respect to the principal studio films while giving a spin on Jason's " father " , who just just happens to be one of the greatest Actor/Stuntman to wear the Mask . The acting was good , the cinematography was good , and the soundtrack was really good as well . The movie kept us entertained and rooting for Jason as those that deserved to die were killed on screen and rooting for our final girl to survive and get away while Jason lives to kill another day !

Vengeance is a fan film with a really cool premise: opening with the scrapped Elias Voorhees ending for Part 6 where Elias visits Jason's (empty) grave. The plot of the movie retcons everything after Part 6 and takes place 30 years later in 2019 centering on descendants of some of the survivors from the previous films. When they bring in familiar names like Henry Manfredini, CJ Graham and Steve Dash, you know they made a remarkable effort.

There are some awesome callbacks for fans of the series, but be warned: it's really cheesy... even for a Friday the 13th movie. Still, I have to recommend it!

Just watch the film. If you are at all a fan of the Friday the 13th series, this film is certainly for you. It looks, sounds, and feels like it fits into the franchise perfectly. I am skeptical that this is really a fan film as I can almost guarantee you that later down the road, it's going to come out that there was something going on here because of all the stupid lawsuits with the franchise rights. At the end of the day, it's a solid. The whole Father/Son angle has not been used before in the franchise and this is nothing like what was connected between Jason and Mrs. Voorhees. This is actually a fresh coat of paint on a series that needed something new to breathe life into it. Needless to say, it's here. Good acting and well filmed, the people behind this should be proud. Hopefully we can get a physical media release of this. I've seen many of the fan films in this series and this one, hands down, is the best one yet and much better than that last "Reboot" that was put out by Platinum Dunes. I'm quite impressed and well entertained. You should see it.

My quick rating - 6,2/10. This is far from your typical fan made movie. This easily could've had a theater release. All aspects of the slasher movies are done quite nicely in this. Starting off 30 years after Friday the 13th part 6, the story very fluidly and intelligently extends the whole Jason universe including aspects from the original flick and even the ones that came after #6 so it didn't act like those things never happened. Being impressed with the script of this was about the last thing I expected to happen but any fan of the series will be floored at the attention to details and the manner of keeping the story going while adding unique new elements. The kills are easily on par and sometimes exceed what we have seen before. If you decide to have sex, expect to die in this one as well. The body count is setup perfectly for them and everyone knows that staying together is a terrible idea and makes sure to separate every chance they get. All the beloved tropes are here, all the characters (welll, many) return so Tommy Jarvis will come into play as well. If that name rings a bell, you have found the movie you have been waiting for in the series. I know the acting is supposed to suck, but that is really the only low point here. I don't know how such a well made movie, looking so great, camerawise, editing, cinematography, sound, the whole production value sits at being a fan film. This is feature film quality and I hope there is a sequel.
