Jason X (2001) 5/10

Starring : Kane Hodder, Lexa Doig, Chuck Campbell, Lisa Ryder, Peter Mensah, Melyssa Ade, Derwin Jordan
Director : James Isaac
Running Time : 90 mins

Jason Voorhees (Hodder) has been cryogenically frozen and wakes up in the 25th Century where Earth is no longer inhabitable and his body has been taken back to a colony in space after being discovered o a field trip which led a group of marines to Camp Crystal Lake. Once Jason's thawed out, it isn’t long before he starts murdering people with a refreshed vigour.

The problem with this movie is it made no sense. In part eight Jason’s body was destroyed and he regressed back to childhood (or something like that), and in part nine his spirit was possessing people, so where did the new body come from? Still, if you enjoy slasher movies, there are a lot worse ones than this.
