Ive got to be honest and say Im not really a Friday 13th Fan. I've seen a few of them years ago (i still intened to watch all of them at some point). I dont really have a favourite of the ones I've watched but I do have a worst, Jason Takes Mahatten.
When I saw the title (and the extremely Cheap price) in HMV I knew I had to see it. I imagined Jason prowling through central park at night, Jason killing greedy yuppies in tall apartment buildings and maybe even a finalle on the Empire State Building!
Ok maybe not that last one as the film probably didnt have the biggest budget ever, but what do we end up with? Some kids on a boat going to manhattan, a chase through the sewers of New York and Jason strolling through Time Square without anyone batting and eyelid!
Howerver the artwork below is one of my favourite horror posters of all time. Its just a shame the film its promoting is pure rubbish.
