[@Shorty_Lickens]

6:40 the biggest problem in any horror franchise is a very regular, very nasty tendency to drastically reduce the budget IMMEDIATELY before filming starts. Then the director has to change everything about the film in order to accommodated the new budget. A small budget is fine if everybody involved knows what they are getting into long before production starts. Roger Corman is famous for taking small potatoes and putting together decent-looking films, but thats because he's a master budgeter and he knows what he's getting into. If you were to remove some of his funds at the last second he'd have difficulty. I dont know why horror films more than others continually get stomped on right before filming. Seems to be a trend but I cannot figure it out.

I've thought about what direction this movie might've taken if Jason still came to New York, but cut an indiscriminate wide bloody swath through it as he pursued the survivors. He kills his way to Central Park, and he feels a sense of familiarity. He chooses to cease pursuing the Lazarus survivors and instead lays claim to the park and kills anyone he finds within it. Central Park is essentially the new Crystal Lake and nothing the police try works to stop or kill him. How would New York handle such an epic killer? What would it do with the surrounding neighborhoods? How might such a movie play out after that?

The guy who played Jason in the second one was my aunt Patricia's on call taxi call whenever she had to meet clients. He had free headshots of himself, and Jason in the backseat signed Steve Dash. He was a nice guy.

I hope they reboot and make a new Friday the 13th. So many Michael Myers movies the past few years.

[@ryanstauffer119]

They really need to make another. Even if the next is truly the last one to ever be made. You see, there are 12 films total in the franchise. If they make another, there will be 13 films.

I remember my brother renting this..and with us being born and raised in NYC we were ecstatic about seeing Jason in New York killing a bunch of people lol ...of course (aside from some kills and funny moments)we were so disappointed... I remember my sister saying "that shit was whack" when the movie ended lol ...I didn't say anything because I was the youngest and they would have made fun of me but I actually enjoyed it haha I thought the boat stuff was fun but that ending was confusing. I still say out of all of the Friday movies this is the one that deserves a remake in my opinion...too bad it will never be made...

[@AnnieBoBannie421]

Yeah, I don’t get the bashing…. ANY Jason is good…. The ‘boxing’ scene is iconic 😂😂 if it’s so bad… why do they ALWAYS show that and him coming out of the water onto the docks? Yeah….wasn’t that bad!! I’ve always liked it!!!❤💋

[@iLLWiLL173]

@@AnnieBoBannie421 yea I agree...it was fun to watch a kid and even as an adult you can't watch the Fridays and leave this one out....a lot of iconic kills and shots were done in this ....the shot of Jason in the train was/is still pretty cool to me ..

The director's original vision of "FRIDAY THE 13TH Part 8: Jason Takes Manhat-tan" deserves to be made into a graphic novel or a paperback novelization.

[@TomTom.o.]

When I was 9 my moms lady friend took me and my 10 yr old brother to the movies and I was adamant about Jason and his Manhattan adventures. My older brother? Not so much. She gave in to my wants, and we watched, what was my first true horror, in a theater! I was already hooked on vhs blood guts and gore and my poor pussified brother cried and complained so much, we weren't allowed to go to the movies with my mom's friend alone ever again. I love this movie!

[@brianredgrave2992]

I personally love this one. It's probably in my top 5 lol

Always a good time staying up late watching Friday the 13th movies with some friends back in the 80's and 90's. I have seen a few of them on DVD recently but it is nothing compared to watching them on a grimy old video tape

[@michaelcampbell6326]

Jason Takes Manhattan is my favorite one. I was born in 84’ and loved horror movies as a kid.

[@lambrosk3790]

If this movie made Paramount pictures $50 million we’d all be talking about weather or not it was one of the best instead of the worst. I always loved it. I think they should’ve done a Die Hard Crossover with Jason Takes LA. With the film taking place in a still unfinished Nakatomi Plaza and Bruce Willis being the hero constantly talking shit to Jason who inexplicably kept a walkie talkie on him while Willis uttered out timeless one liners. “Come to the coast, let’s get together, again, have a few laughs.” A man can dream.

[@MoreBuffMoreMuff]

Part 5 was awesome, and part 8 was awesome. Bunch of haters.

[@nickfromohio6032]

Is this a recut of other videos? I feel like all that's missing is the "Black sheep" of Friday movies.

I was so excited when I was a teenager to find out that the guitar girl in the movie played by Saffron Henderson voiced Gohan in the ocean dub of Dragon Ball Z
