Synopsis

In the year 2455, Old Earth is now a contaminated planet abandoned for centuries -- a brown world of violent storms, toxic landmasses and poisonous seas. Yet humans have returned to the deadly place that they once fled, not to live, but to research the ancient, rusting artifacts of the long-gone civilizations. But it's not the harmful environment that could prove fatal to the intrepid, young explorers who have just landed on Old Earth. For them, it's Friday the 13th, and Jason lives!

spencer_blass If you're a fan of Friday the 13th, it's a must to watch! Yeah, the plot is stupid but there's really great special effets for its time and plenty of gruesome murders yet to be seen!! I'm a big fan of the franchise and overall I'm glad I saw it.
adonis98-743-186503 Jason Voorhees returns with a new look, a new machete, and his same murderous attitude as he is awakened on a spaceship in the 25th century. Jason X is the Halloween: Resurrection of the Friday the 13th Series and the 10th i repeat the freaking 10th film in the series and once again the Saga makes no sense especially if you remember what happened at 'Jason goes to Hell'? The acting was really awful, the dialogue even worse and Jason punching 2 chicks against a tree was so over the top and lame and makes sense that the series reboot next. (0/10)
George Taylor I'll be honest to start. I'm not a big fan of the Friday series or Jason. I find the idea of the indestructible boogeyman a stupid one. By the time the 3rd sequel came around (the 3D one), I went to see these for two reasons: Nudity and Killings. When the censors started cutting the gore out - I stopped paying attention at all. Jason X is the best of the later sequels. It has an interesting idea, Jason waking up in the future, and a cast that can actually act and that the audience can actually root for. Jason is as menacing as ever (honestly, I could have used more gore, a lynchpin of the originals), and it's quick and fun. Just grab some popcorn and, as usual, turn off your brain.
FreedomWatchTower (I am Reviewing this Film in the Context of the Series and as mildly as possible as an actual Film on its own)To quote a line from the Film itself which perfectly describes the Whole experience "This sucks on so many levels!". If one would want to describe the Whole Film in as sparse words as possible it could simply be described as "Jason in Space" or "Imagine Alien without the Alien but with Jason instead and much cheaper looking".First a bit about the Background of this Flick, it had the Biggest Budget of the main series (1-10) and it was meant as an re-igniter for the franchise, for the reason of "Jason goes to Hell" being the introduction for the long planned "Freddy vs Jason" (which finally came to fruition in 2003), one of the writers had the idea of Sending him to Space so the series could get a fresh entry.The problems of this sequel are to many to count, from unnecessary transition scenes that break the mood to a horrible and cheap sounding Film Score, Bad lighting, and and and. The Worst problem of this Sequel is that you can see and feel that the Sets got made cheap and fast and the CGI was worse than on most TV Shows that where made in the 90s and the Dialogues where laughable Bad (even for a Friday the 13th Film). There are so many scenes where you force yourself trough and think how in the F#@*ing Hell did this get green-lit. Some examples: One of the Characters gets grabbed trough a Wall by his throat and Jason Pushes his Machete through the Wall and his back, the character says something like "aah oh god, how could you think you can kill me like this" and Jason Punches another Sharp object through and the Character says "ah that's it two is better than one" and he faints. Or a scene near the End Where a protagonist gets sucked trough a whole and right before she falls trough she says "this sucks on so many levels". This Film made me angry as i was plowing through the Whole Series, which grew to my Heart even if most of them where Trash they at least where a Big Bumper Bag of Fun, this one is not. One highlight of this Flick was a Scene where trough VR technology Jason gets transported to the 80s Crystal Lake and kills two Chicks in old Classic fashion, and as a wink to one of his predecessors, he hammers a girl in a sleeping bag against a tree.This Film was an affront to everything that was Fun to the Series, the other Films where made way cheaper but managed to look way more expensive. The Director didn't seem to have enough of Fantasy and Vision, as laughable as the Idea may be imagine a more talented Director at the Helm. Ugly, Laughable, Boring and a Machete to the heart to one or mostly many fans of the Series. Don't watch this Film!!!
