I'm suprised so many people here are giving such bad reviews... Considering the crap that's been pumped out since Jason Takes Manhattan came out, I'd say this was a definite breath of fresh air. Maybe too many people have become accustomed to zombie, slumbering around Jason... I don't know.First off, I think Derek Mears did a terrific job as Jason! I'd say he's the best Jason has been played since Ted White. The movie did have that 'TCM' feel, but Nispel did direct it too, afterall. It did have a different feel than the originals, yeah, but when you consider camps aren't really a thing of the times now, it can't be a 'modern' campy movie so much. Out of all the Slasher remakes that have come out so far, I'd say this is my favorite. And I'd like to note, out of pure spite, that Rob Zombie's Halloween is STILL at the very bottom of the list; if you even want to consider it attached and in any way worthy of being included in a list.
