by jeff419 on August 28, 2009 16:08 for The 13 Best Horror Sequels of All Time!
If the most powerful fear is the fear of the unknown, how do you keep a franchise scary after nine sequels have made your villain the most familiar slasher in horror history? The answer: You don't, as the makers of Jason X mercifully realized when they merged their horror franchise with science fiction, action and comedy to create this under-rated and subversive gem. It may not keep you awake at night, but there are enough clever kills, "BOO" scares and throwbacks to the rest of the franchise ("Hey Jason? Do you want a beer? Or do you want to smoke some pot? Or can we have premarital sex? We LOVE premarital sex!") to satisfy every breed of horror fan, from A to X.
