Jason In Space

Advantages: Some interesting death sequences, and an attempt to at least make this one different
Disadvantages: Some ridiculous characterizations and a film that looks like an expensive porn

...Opening with a sequence set in the not too distant future, unstoppable killer Jason Vorhees is being held captive by a group of scientists at the Crystal Lake Research Facility. They've discovered that Jason has an unheard of ability to regenerate skin tissue, therefore explaining his inability to die. However, when he escapes, he and one remaining scientist are criogenically frozen for 300 years. Once aboard a spaceship of potential victims in the 25th century, Jason unleashes carnage on a new spate of big breasted beauty's. When they attempt to defeat him once again, Jason is revitalised by a machine that turns human's into almighty cyborgs, and so begins a fight to the death in space. The Friday 13th franchise has never been famous for its plot, nor its consistent narrative, so to say that film number 10 is the best of a bad...

Review of Jason X (DVD)

Jason upgraded!

Advantages: Fresh sotryline, fresh characters, bloody good fun!
Disadvantages: It's not scary, but that's not the point...

...Two years after 'Halloween' came 'Friday the 13th' in 1980, a quick cash in on the genre. It was a decent horror movie, scary and bloody. After that came 8 sequels which weren't up to scratch. They were made quickly, without thought and blood-thirsty resulting in movies that only hard-core fans of the series could enjoy. Then came Jason X, a movie that you can enjoy without having to see the previous 9 and without having to be a hard-core fan. After numerous failed attempts to kill him off, Jason (Kane Hodder) is set to be cryogenically frozen until Rowan (Lexa Doig) can work out what to do with him. Except that things don't quite go to plan. Scientists and military personnel are killed leaving Rowan to fend for herself. She finally suceeds in leading him into and trapping him in the cryogen chamber but unfortunately for her...

Review of Jason X (DVD)

Jason Sex

Advantages: Hilariously corny
Disadvantages: The above

...Well the title says it all. Well, almost, you'll have to read on to understand. Of all the cult horror classics that the modern film culture had to go and destroy why did they decide to anhiliate the Friday the 13th enigma. If you haven't seen the film and dislike spoilers please don't read on because i'm so disgusted at this film i'm intent on telling everyone. Jason Vorhees,or just plain old Jason to you and me, has been captured and locked down deep inside a research facility. I'm assuming this happened during one of his many previous Friday 13th incarnations and somewhere along the line he has apparently developed the ability to regenerate lost tissue. Where, Why, How? Well this soon becomes irrelevant. Anyway, if you can avoid sheer predictabitily of when the kills are coming, which by the way total around 20 in total for a 15...

FREE DVDs

Advantages: Free trial, large choice, post included,new realeases
Disadvantages: see review

...I like movies and I like freebies, so when you get offered both in one swoop you?re bound to accept! I used my two week free trial with this company and remained with them for a couple of monthsbefore moving on to try many other companies free trials (and winning a new DVD player on Tesco DVD rental site on their free trial offer). I then had an email from DVDs 365 asking me to go back, and offering me a free DVD if I did so. I had just left Tesco (with my new DVD player) so I chose to go back with them. ∆◊◊ THE SERVICE THEY OFFER ∆◊◊ Basically it?s like going to a video shop and hiring films on DVD, except you don?t pay for each film you chose ? rather a monthly fee for which you can watch as many movies as you can fit in, for us this is usually around 8 a month (2 a week usually weekends...

JASON X 2001

Advantages: Classic slasher movie - with technology and android!
Disadvantages: A few inconsistency with plot and storyline.

...SYNOPSIS = In the far future, our Earth is detroyed and no longer inhabitable. A school field trip of scientists discovers two frozen bodies, one of a woman and the other of a man in a hockey mask and carrying a machete in his right hand. The scientists decides to bring the bodies back for research and to bring the woman back to life. The danger is that Jason was thawing and the adventure of the survival of their lives begins. REVIEW = I have only seen three Friday the 13th series in my life, and was actually quite impressed with Jason X. It was interesting that the location was set in the future, which meant with the help of technology, anything can happen. The storyline is standardard and predictable, as far as the series goes - Jason kills and heroine lives after a horrfic battle. However, I was thrilled...

Surprising Picture Quality - Panasonic DVD-S54

Advantages: Incredible picture quality when compared to my old non-upscaling player with a scart lead
Disadvantages: Sometimes disc drive can be really noisy when DVD's initially load.

...At first I wasn't convinced by up-scaling DVD player technology but was persuaded after reading an article in "What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision" magazine. Unable to afford a Blu-Ray player my sister and I bought the Panasonic DVD-S54 to match our parents brand new Panasonic TX-32LZD80 LCD television as their Christmas 2008 present. Admittedly it was a slightly selfish purchase as we both live at home and wanted to watch DVDs on the big new TV ourselves! We bought the player from the electrical retailer Comet for about £100 just before Christmas so there were no discounts applied. On Christmas day when opened we found a relatively small box tightly packed with the player in polystyrene packaging. All the components such as cables, remote and manuals were well presented in their own protective plastic bags, to keep them protected. The player...

Jason takes EARTH 2...

Advantages: Great story, Great Artwork, Great Value...
Disadvantages: Some pictures are hard to work out what's happening...

...* iNTRODUCTIOn * In 2005/2006 AVATAR released a series of comics based on New Line Cinema's horror legends including Jason Voorhees (Friday The 13th), Freddy Krueger (A Nightmare On Elm Street) and Leatherface (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre). The comics weren't expected to be that great but fans and others were surprised by the quality and consistency of them all, including me. The review here though is for Jason X SPECIAL Issue 1 released in November 2005. * sTORy * The story picks up after the events of the movie JASON X with Uber-Jason landing on Earth 2 in the year 2455. Don't worry though if you haven't seen the movie it doesn't matter as this is also a story on it's own. He (surprise, surprise) lands in Crystal Lake (where he originally hails from in the Friday The 13th movies) and begins searching for his latest victims...

Review of Jason X - Mike Wolfer

Jason Hotel Ipsos

Advantages: relaxing, quiet.
Disadvantages: Big hill to climb,

...I have just spent a week at the Jason Hotel in Ipsos Corfu. There is one other review for this hotel but as it is over a year old I thought i would write to update the hotel as things can change from year to year. On arrival to the hotel first impression was good from the outside, up a very steep hill lined with lemon trees Jason hotel has a square swimming pool and a out side pool bar. We checked in very early and was greeted by a night receptionist who gave us our keys and directed us to our floor. Jason has a lift to floors but it was broken for our week, this could prove difficult if you are elderly and need lifts to the 2 floors above. I carried our cases to our 2nd floor room which was a little hard work but we made it. On opening our door the first thing that i noticed was a smell of drains, which had a smell of pickled eggs...

Review of Jason Hotel, Corfu

Jason Donovan - Let It Be Me (or not)

Advantages: Sometimes, there *are* no advantages.
Disadvantages: Syrupy, schmaltzy, bad attempt at cashing in.

...Jason Donovan - Let It Be Me Who/What? You know Kylie right? Well, back when she was called Kylie Minogue, she starred in a little known Australian soap called Neighbours, and her on-screen (and off-screen) boyfriend was played by a fresh faced youth going by the name of Jason Donovan. Neighbours exploded (sometimes literally), and Kylie and Jason fever gripped the civilised world. Then he objected to being called gay, took lots of drugs, waved much of his career goodbye, and appeared in Joseph before disappearing off his face of the earth. It's fifteen years later and he may not be fresh-faced anymore (doesn't even seem that airbrushing can hide that fact), but he's back with a new album. I can barely contain my indifference. Highlights This is going to be difficult. There's a whopping seventeen tracks here, each one...

Review of Let It Be Me - Jason Donovan

King Jason Apartments

Advantages: Location, Cleanliness, Ameneties, People
Disadvantages: Only One Shop within 2 minute walk

...King Jason Apartments Paphos must be one of the most organised and well rounded places to stay on your Summer or Winter holidays. The staff could not be friendlier and the place itself is hard to beat. When you first arrive there is always numerous staff there to welcome you in, with a refreshing glass of pure orange juice or apple juice, morning, noon or night. In our experience it is usually about 3am! Your suitcases are taken along to your room which is extremely spacious and makes you feel like you have your very own home in Cyprus. The decor is simple but exquisite; white with hints of yellow to colour the room. The bathrooms all sparkling white with all ameneties, much like the Kitchen which has everything you could need. The balconies of the apartment makes the feeling of being on holiday all the better as you can sit out...
