Friday The 13th: A New Beginning (1985, Danny Steinman)

Having never seen this one, I felt I had to after all this time.

Time has passed as Tommy Jarvis is now in his 20s, who is being transported to a new facility as we open. Haunted by the hockey mask some what, he better not look behind him then ...
I know Paramount had a downer on their slasher stepchild, but come on ffs , poorly written characters, no main focal point and the usuallly brutally shorn kills. And then .... I sort of sat up at that revelation. What affrontery on their part. The chap from Return Of The Living Dead was fun for all that.
