* {{Sequelitis}}: Even with the BrokenBase formed in recent years, this film is held to be among the worst of the ''Friday the 13th'' films for its subpar writing, production values and controversial twist ending. It isn't helped by the fact that it's the first movie in the series to be utterly slaughtered by the MPAA's cuts, while not the first entry in the series to suffer the wrath of the moral guardians, Part 5 began the trend of Friday the 13th films having kills which cut out the second they began, making it feel far less brutal and memorable than it's predecessors in terms of kills, despite having one of the highest body counts.

* ContestedSequel: While long regarded as one of the worst entries in the series, it has gotten more polarizing in recent years to the point of arguably becoming this. Supporters tend to cite CriticalBacklash as being in effect, pointing out that without the twist the film is perfectly serviceable as a standard ''Friday the 13th film'' and appreciate its trashier feel and attempt to return to the mystery killer aspect of the first film. Detractors tend to loathe the film for its subpar makeup effects accompanying the heavily trimmed down violence, Tommy Jarvis being heavily OutOfFocus despite being the protagonist, an abundance of bland or unlikable victims and a twist ending that suffers from CaptainObviousReveal and FridgeLogic.
* CriticalBacklash: Some viewers in recent years, particularly people new to the franchise, tend to be puzzled by the negative reception the film receives, noting that until the twist ending it plays out like a standard ''Friday the 13th'' film.
