Jason X Description
A dispute between scientists over cryogenically freezing maniacal killer Jason
Voorhees (Kane Hodder) or researching his amazingly regenerative tissue is
literally cut short when Jason hacks up the research staff. Trapping herself in
the cryogenic chamber with him, Rowan (Lexa Doig) freezes Jason, halting his
rampage. Four hundred years later the two are discovered by the student research
craft Grendel. Both scientist and her subject are revived in space in the year
2455 when Earth has been destroyed, but Jason Voorhees proves what horror fans
have known for years, that his killing spree continues indefinitely.
Slaughtering most of the crew, Jason does meet his equal in a feminine android
(Lisa Ryder) only to receive an upgrade making this veteran killing machine of
ten movies an even more unstoppable force.
Although 2455 seems no different from the 2002 release date of this tenth film
in the FRIDAY THE 13TH series, JASON X does breathe life into the long-running
horror series with computer generated effects and a witty script by Todd Farmer.
Some clever self-referencing is particularly effective in a virtual reality
segment that confuses Jason and, of course, an ending that leaves an opening for
yet another entry.
"...The film is a nostalgic romp through horror mythology
as the film pulls from vintage Jason films and combines it with
new technology..."
"...The most entertaining of the sequels..."
