Friday the 13th Part 3 (3D) - Steve Miner - (1982) DVD

Friday the 13th part III" starts immediately after the events of part II where at the end, Jason gets a machete through the shoulder.

At dawn, police finds the dead bodies of 8 counselors spread over the camp, they also give medical attention to the lone survivor Ginny Field (it's presumed that Jason killed Paul).

After a recap footage of the ending of the previous film, we see a scene where Jason recovers from the injury and escapes after Ginny and Paul leave his cabin in the woods. This time Jason leaves Camp Crystal Lake and heads to an unknown destiny, which later turns to be "Higgins Haven". On his way to the haven Jason murders Harold and Edna (the owners / attendants) of a rural K-Mart like store. This time Jason's unlucky victims include Chris Higgins (owner of the haven), Rick, Chuck, Chilli, Shelly, Debbie, Andy, Vera, and a gang of motorcycle bikers: Ali, Fox, Loco. Highlights of the movie: Jason and the bikers, Chris revealing to Rick about her previous encounter with Jason (not knowing it was him), Chuck watching Jason thinking it's a hallucination, Andy's death, and of course , Jason getting his trademark mask; and at last but not least the great funky groovy opening theme. This tune added some humor to the tension felt towards the beginning of the carnage.

Give a try to this flick even if you're not a Friday the 13th fan, it's surely a great slasher flick. Not the best in the series but delivers some good scares, gore, a cool theme, and a hockey masked Jason! And the 3D adds some serious punch to the enjoyment factor.

Note: The opening sequence which is a recap of part 2, is not in 3D and seems oddly a lower quality than the rest of the film.
