Jason X was surprisingly good -
The film may have ripped off the Alien series to death, but it was a welcome and refreshing change from the tired settings of the previous 37 instalments.
"FutureJason" - with his fused-on mask and nifty metallic bits and pieces - was an awesome sight (director James Isaac cut his teeth on special creature effects in Return of the Jedi and The Fly); the characters were quite likeable, murders weren't bad, and humour subtle but inventive (the "lakeside" illusion bit: "Well, he's done with the campers!").
And a David Cronenberg cameo!
