Often deemed the worst of the franchise, Jason Takes Manhattan remains overly hated. It's not a great movie by any means, but audiences looking for a silly slasher can count on this entry. The original Friday the 13th, while iconic, feels like a film student movie rather than one for general audiences.
The movie's content contains every horror imaginable, including decapitations, violent stabbings and throat slittings, and machetes and axes being driven through skulls. There is also underage teenage drunkenness and illegal drug abuse, plus abundant foul language and extremely explicit sex and nudity.
