Leave your thoughts about Friday the 13th Part III.
| VarietyVariety StaffFriday the 13th was dreadful and took in more than $17 million. Friday the 13th Part 2 was just as bad and took in more than $10 million. Friday the 13th Part III is terrible, too. |
| TheFilmFile.comDustin PutmanAs a tried-and-true slasher film, it has its moments, but ... it grows tedious by the end. |
| 7M PicturesKevin CarrWith this film, there's more sex, more nudity and more creative kills. |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid NusairThe Friday the 13th saga continues with this typically underwhelming entry... |
| The New York TimesJanet MaslinAs in each of the other recent 3-D movies, of which this is easily the most professional, there is a lot of time devoted to trying out the gimmick. Titles loom toward you. Yo-yos spin. Popcorn bounces. Snakes dart toward the camera and strike. Eventually, the novelty wears off, and what remains is the now-familiar spectacle of nice, dumb kids being lopped, chopped and perforated. |
| Groucho ReviewsPeter CanaveseNot since Psycho has a movie taken such advantage of the phallic nature of slasher horror. [Blu-ray] |
| Washington PostTom ShalesThe horny teenagers all seem like banal, plastic, eager-to-please refugees from a sitcom, desperately hoping with their every line of dialogue for a canned laugh. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonThe gore is surprisingly suggestive, rather than blatant, and therefore the audience doesn't quite get what it pays for. |
| CinefantastiqueSteve BiodrowskiThe funny thing is: as lame as the story and characters are, the movie actually works as a crowd-pleasing piece of junk entertainment. |
| eFilmCritic.comScott WeinbergJust in case you thought the series couldn't get any more stupid. |
