Tenth Friday The 13th movie sat on the shelf for almost two years before being released in 2002.

Taking an old horror movie sequel idea (that is put the main villian in space, an idea that has stunk up many a fourth entry in a series - Leprechaun, Critters, etc.) this is set in the year 2455 as a spaceship crew containing a medical professor and his students stumble upon the cyrogenically frozen Jason and his arch-rival Lexa Doig only for killings to start anew when a quite annoyed Jason is thawed-out.

This leads to all sorts of quick deaths (which are for the most part pretty cool), lots of silliness and a pretty dumb final third. You shouldn't take this film at all seriously as it's campy, ridiculous and mostly entertaining B-movie with a script by Todd Farmer that's silly and with some okay chuckles.

Apart from a really lousy "atmosphere" moment this has enough memorable scenes to please fans such as the cool "face freeze/smash" scene, a neat drill moment, the witty holodeck scene that recreates everyone's favourite death from part seven (think sleeping bag) and Lisa Ryder's fun turn as a bad ass cyborg Jason exterminator (that sequence alone is the films highlight) to make it a watchable, if pretty dopey, follow-up.

Genre director David Cronenberg shows-up in a bit part.

Directed By: Jim Isaac.
Written By: Todd Farmer.

Starring: Lexa Doig, Lisa Ryder, Chuck Campbell, Jonathan Potts.

Picture Ratio: 1.85:1 Widescreen.

Picture Quality: A crisp and clean picture, which is expected since this was converted to digital.

Extras: Finally New Line is able to do what Paramount couldn't (and didn't want to) by giving a Friday movie some extra features. There's the expected trailer, a so-so making of featurette, a very cool "Many Lives Of Jason Vorhees" featurette, the "Jump To A Death" feature seen in New Line's Nightmare On Elm Street discs and an okay commentary track.
