"Freddy VS Jason". What else do you really need to add to that? Ever since Freddy's gloved hand pulled the hockey mask underground at the end of "Jason Goes To Hell - The Final Friday", this is the horror movie match-up that every slasher fan has wanted to see.
Freddy Krueger has a bit of a dilemma. Somehow, the residents of Springwood have managed to do the seemingly impossible - get rid of Freddy. By eliminating every single mention of him and drugging their children so they don't dream...Freddy has no power. So...how can he return to his former glory? He must make the people of Springwood afraid again. And to do so...he recruits Jason Voorhees, the hockey-masked monster from Crystal Lake. Jason proceeds to do what he does best...kill. And Freddy grows stronger. But when Jason won't stop killing, Freddy has a new problem on his hands - competition!
As I previously mentioned, this is one of the most eagerly anticipated horror movies of all time. The unique contrast between the two killers is apparent - Freddy's over-the-top gallows humor and ironic ways of killing his victims against Jason's silent, brute force assault. My only true complaint with the movie is this - It seems that the filmmakers tried to turn Jason into the "hero" of the film. It should have been pure and simple...two monsters slugging it out to see who got to kill every single person in sight. But, even with that minor complaint...this is still an excellent movie.
For the horror movie battle of all time..."Freddy VS Jason"...place your bets!
