10 Most Disappointing Horror Movie Sequels

You know it’s bad when even Jason Vorhees in space is better than this. Even Kane Hodder’s return to the role couldn’t save it.

Where do we even begin with this boring and predictable pile of trash that’s so rancid it’s seeping out of the bin bag? Well, I’m glad you asked.

Firstly, it’s stupidly long. Secondly, Paramount were so embarrassed by this film that the saga was dropped and taken up by New Line Cinema. Thirdly, Jason is literally electrocuted back to life, randomly drifts into a harbour and jumps on a boat that conveniently takes him to New York.

Eventually it does anyway, as it takes at least ninety minutes for Jason to actually reach Manhattan! Not only that, but the people that he slices and dices are so one-dimensional that you can’t even enjoy or appreciate the creativity behind the kills.

Next on the list of offences, it simply isn’t scary. Jason had certainly become a cinema icon by this point, but all the fear associated with him was well and truly gone by the time the end credits of part eight rolled around. The weird flashbacks/ghost of baby Jason probably didn’t help.

I hate to be that person, but even the rooftop-boxing scene couldn’t redeem this movie.
