so there does seem to be some horror coming, if the dog scene is an indication.

For any curious, here's my ratings of the first seven movies:

F13: 8/10
Part 2: 8.5/10
Part III: 7.5/10
The Final Chapter: 8.5/10
A New Beginning: 8.5/10
Jason Lives: 7/10
The New Blood: 7.5/10

So while it's not a series I absolutely love, I'm obviously a fan. Still haven't seen The Final Friday, though. :P

Now, I wouldn't put New Blood *above* Jason Lives, but I respect not putting Jason Lives at such a high pedestal that most seem to these days :P

Jason Lives feels right at B-, but New Blood trickles to C+ for me.

I like how I get roped in with zombie despite the fact I just gave a movie they enjoy a 3.5/10 earlier today. :P

Last time I watched New Blood was 2017 so it may be different now.

honestly it is the low-budget quality photography, heavily edited kills, and the goofy dad-resurrection that keeps what otherwise would've been a really solid entry down. Even the type-face on the end credits reek of made-for-video quality.
