As always, returning to Crystal Lake means the usual teenage motley; wild 80's parties, skinny dippings, first-time try outs fronted by the usual stoner. This teenage group might be a dead ringer but we're also met with two inspirational new character forms; the revengeful 'Outback Jack' Rob Dyer, who's set in hunting down Jason to revenge his sister's death. And the divorced next door neighbor's son Tommy, played by the amazing Corey Feldman (amongst other 80's classics Stand by Me, The Goonies & The Lost Boys).
Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter is my favorite so far after the first movie. The death scenes are clearly inspired by the mid 80's wave of horror movies, becoming more inventive and challenging. The amazing final scene where Tommy's passion for mask- and costume making saves the day; it's clear that the costume and makeup has sufficiently improved, which is enhanced in the ending scene where Jason's mask is finally torn off and the face of his true character is revealed.

BEST PART OF INTRO SCENE
Plastic covered police hats and matching rain coats when it's not even raining.
BEST LINE
Tommy: (watches the teenage group go skinny dipping) "Some pack of patootsies, huh".
BEST NUDITY SCENE
-
BEST DEATH SCENE
Most comic one, at least. Bonnie Hellman's appearance as 'the hitchhiker' is so short and even less charming, that I had to give her chubby banana eating face a spot on the list.
BEST SCREAM
With not enough Scream Queen action, the award would have to go to Trish in her final strength to fight of Jason.
MOST GORY SCENE
Doug gets his face crushed in the shower.
BEST KILLER FEATURE
Tommy's half beheading of Jason.
