As
most horror fans know, the fourth Friday the 13th film was intended to
truly be The Final Chapter. However, since it wound up being the highest
grossing film in the series, Paramount rushed into production The New
Beginning. Fans were not pleased with the "Jason-Free" sequel, so the
studio decided to bring the Crystal Lake slasher back from the dead for a
sixth film. JASON LIVES was the first sequel in the series to receive
positive reviews from critics. It also broke the fourth wall with its
self-referential humor a full decade before Wes Craven delivered Scream.
This was also the first film in the series in which supernatural
elements were introduced. These are just a few of the reasons Jason
Lives is one of our favorite Friday the 13th films.
