I've seen them all, though, for whatever stupid reason. There are one or two that are acceptable, but most are just very, very slow. They aren't even very good as cheesy campy fun.
Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter, the one with Corey Feldman, is okay.
Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives has hints of self-aware humor.
I kinda like the space one.
(I can't believe I just wrote all that.)

Well, he started out as just a “Ghost” or not even that... like, a memory or something. I forget. Then he became this unstoppable killing machine which rendered better in the remake than it did in the originals, all of which suck, some more than others.
But yeah, in the hierarchy of ‘80s horror movie villains, he was dead last in terms of imagination.
He’s basically Michael Meyers with a shittier backstory and a more confusing paranormal “status.”
