Friday the 13th Part VII--The New Blood

Psychic powers meets psycho killer. Discuss. Now Playing Podcast continues its Friday the 13th retrospective with Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood. This 1988 sequel tries to shake things up by pitting Jason Voorhees against a new kind of opponent and leaning harder into supernatural elements than ever before. Does The New Blood inject some much-needed life into the franchise, or does it feel like the series is shambling along on fumes? The hosts dig into the gimmick, the kills, and whether this experiment gives Jason a jolt of energy, or makes them wonder if they should have just watched Weekend at Bernie’s II instead.   {Friday the 13th Series}
