History YMMV / FridayThe13thPartVIITheNewBlood

* HilariousInHindsight:
** Eddie comes up with a concept of "star mummy" for his science fiction writings, which isn't that far off from "[[Film/JasonX space zombie]]".

** Tina's mother is played by Susan Blu, who is best know for voicing [[Franchise/TheTransformers Arcee]]. Nearly two decades later, Creator/MichaelBay, the director of the ''Film/{{Transformers}}'' film franchise, would produce the [[Film/FridayThe13th2009 remake]].

* TheScrappy: [[AssholeVictim Dr. Crews]] is easily the most hated character of the movie thanks in part to his {{Jerkass}} attitude towards Tina and her mother, as well as his manipulative treatment towards Tina by making her believe she’s a monster for her telekinesis while blanketing it as he’s trying to help her. [[spoiler:Needless to say, nobody was sad when Jason sliced him open.]]

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: While Fred Mollin's score is generally considered not as strong as Harry Manfredini's work on the previous six films, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BImmD_4rk0w the title credits theme]] is simple, yet effective.

* {{Narm}}:
** [[SignatureScene Awesome as the scene is]], the sleeping bag kill becomes much sillier when you realize she’s not only being whacked against a fairly small tree, but judging by the placements on where Jason hits her, she splits her head open after her feet make contact with the tree. [[WhatCouldHaveBeen Granted, she was supposed to be thrown against the tree six times]] [[ExecutiveMeddling before it got cut down]], but still.
** Zombified or not, the idea that Tina resurrects her dead dad to defeat Jason once and for all is still a ridiculous sight to behold. This isn't helped by the fact her dad simply looks like a regular man covered by dirt instead of the zombified look they originally planned on using.

* FranchiseOriginalSin: Having unlikable heel characters so the audience can root Jason on isn’t a new concept to this series. However, the previous films still made an effort to balance them out by showcasing likable teens, some of them as good friends even and gave them enough establishing character moments so their deaths made some impact on the viewers. This film takes the AssholeVictim concept and cranks it UpToEleven by making just about every character, even the teens who the audience is supposed to like (aside from Tina, Nick, Maddy, and Tina’s mom) as stupid, snarky, and mean spirited towards each other [[EightDeadlyWords to the point where it’s hard to care about anybody that dies in this movie]].

* FanNickname: The film is called "Jason vs. Film/{{Carrie|1976}}" due to Tina's psychic powers.

* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: Jason's rotting appearance (you can see his ''spine'') and Tina's psychic powers. Also, the animation of Jason's mask being lit from behind and then cracking in half in the opening credits.

** [[AlphaBitch Melissa]], big time. For about half the viewers, Melissa was an [[EnsembleDarkhorse entertaining, brilliant, manipulative bitch who owned the screen.]] For the other half, [[TheScrappy she played the part too well and couldn't die soon enough!]]

* EnsembleDarkhorse: [[{{Meganekko}} Maddy]] is remembered for being one of the few nicer victims of the film when compared to the unlikable cast of teens.

* MoralEventHorizon: Dr. Crews had already proven himself to be a bastard long before, but he went right over this the second he [[spoiler: forced Tina's mother to take a killing blow from Jason in order to protect himself.]]

* OneSceneWonder: In a object-based example, Jason's weed hacker of doom, used oh so perfectly on Dr. Crews. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asyV7Uz6Uao Even better in the uncut version.]] (It's the second death in the clip)

* {{The Scrappy}}: [[AssholeVictim Dr. Crews]] is easily the most hated character of the movie thanks in part to his {{Jerkass}} attitude towards Tina and her mother, as well as his manipulative treatment towards Tina by making her believe she’s a monster for her telekinesis while blanketing it as he’s trying to help her. [[spoiler:Needless to say, nobody was sad when Jason sliced him open.]]

* SoOkayItsAverage: Amongst fans who don’t love or hate it as others in the fandom. It’s not hated, as some love the addition of Creator/KaneHodder as Jason and appreciate Tina and the final fight at the end, but also felt that the film gets too dull at the 2nd act and that it’s use of AssholeVictims, excessively watered-down kills and rehash of [[Film/FridayThe13thTheFinalChapter a more well beloved sequel’s structure]] hurt it from being one of the better entries.
* SpecialEffectsFailure: There's a couple shots late in the film when Jason is wandering around the teens' cabin where Kane Hodder's natural eyes can be seen in his mask.

* TheyCopiedItNowItSucks: A common complaint that fans have with the film is that, story wise, it plays out too much like a poor man’s ''[[Film/FridayThe13thTheFinalChapter The Final Chapter]]'', from the concept of teens going to a cabin by the lake to party, to the opening montage of clips set to a spooky narration before the film starts, one kill has Jason throwing somebody out a window (they even reshot that death at the same house from ''The Final Chapter''), Maddy is seen wearing a blue dress similar to what Trish wore, heck they even use [[StockFootageFailure obvious stock footage of a tent in the rain from The Final Chapter at one point despite no rain being present in the film]]. The only ''major'' difference is [[spoiler:instead of a 12 year old boy, it’s a teenage girl with telekinetic powers that defeats Jason]], and more characters you’re rooting Jason to kill. The fact that [[WordOfGod it was a request by Frank Mancuso Jr. to copy that film’s structure]] only adds to the criticism.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: While Harry Manfredini's score, which he co-composed with Fred Mollin, is generally considered not as strong as his work on the previous six films, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BImmD_4rk0w the title credits theme]] is simple, yet effective.

* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: Jason's rotting appearance (you can see his ''spine'') and Tina's psychic powers.
* TheWoobie: Tina. She can't control her powers, accidentally caused her father's death, is manipulated by a greedy doctor, is humiliated by neighbors, and has her mother murdered by Jason. Oh, and Jason tries to kill her and the man she loves all night long. It is impossible not to give a shout of happiness when we finally see her learning to use her powers to give Jason his well deserved punishment.

* OlderThanTheyThink: The infamous sleeping bag murder is very similar to one of the kills in the 1980 film ''Night of the Demon''.

** Nick also falls here. Some see him as one of the worst leading men in the series who felt the relationship between him and Tina was unnatural and forced, that he had a bland backstory and was poorly acted. On the other hand, others think it’s one of the better characters of the series who thought he and Tina had good chemistry together and appreciate his willingness to search for his brother and friends when things go FromBadToWorse, as well as seeing right through [[AlphaBitch Melissa]]’s scheme easier than the other teens

* ContinuitySnarl:
** ''[[Film/FridayThe13thPartVIJasonLives Jason Lives]]'' established that the town renamed itself from Crystal Lake to Forest Green as the townsfolk wanted to forget about what Jason did. In this film it’s back to being called Crystal Lake.
** When Megan rammed the propeller into Jason’s face the right side of the mask broke off and cut his right cheek open. In this film it’s the left side that’s bruised up.

* EnsembleDarkhorse:
** [[{{Meganekko}} Maddy]] is remembered for being one of the few nicer victims of the film when compared to the unlikable cast of teens.
** Even the people who hate this movie love Tina for being, alongside Tommy Jarvis, one of the few people who make Jason suffer the most. That, and Creator/LarParkLincoln's LargeHam acting.

** Zombified or not, the idea that Tina resurrects her dead dad to defeat Jason once and for all is still a ridiculous sight to behold.

* {{Sequelitis}}: The film is divisive, but most of the fans at least agree that with the plot being a mere remake of part 4 and all the death scenes censored by the MPAA, there is not much left to enjoy here.
