As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Oi. This was supposed to be the original Jason v. Freddy. But, it didn't quite work out that way, so the writers pulled a second-rate telekenetic heroine outta their ass. This is much the same forgettable film as V, except for the presence of the Carrie-like protagonist.

Being the same as V is a tragic fate, but somehow, a filmable movie is rent from the jaws of hell, though just barely.

Verdict : 1 star. It's Kane's first fucking film. I can't hate on Kane.

I have a soft spot for this one as I saw it in the theater on opening weekend with a packed house. It made the movie more entertaining, especially where the girl and Jason squared off for the first time. The audience popped big time so it made for a cool moment.
