Brief Synopsis:
The fifth installment in the Friday the 13th franchise follows a teenage Tommy Jarvis (John Shepherd), who still suffers from nightmares of the mass murderer Jason Voorhees—whom he killed as a child—and is institutionalized at a halfway house near Crystal Lake. However, Tommy has to face his fears when a new hockey-masked killer begins another series of violent murders.

Kidjupiter92 presents his definitive edition of the fifth installment of the Friday the 13th franchise.
Intention:
After purchasing the Friday the 13th Deluxe Edition boxset from Scream Factory and marathoning the entire franchise in three days while in quarantine and fighting off Coronavirus, one film in the series stood out the most to me and that was Part 5. Part 5 is so different from the rest of the series that I wasn't completely sure how to feel about it, and giving it another watch recently, I realized that I was meh about it: I didn't love it but I didn't hate it like most of the franchise fans do. When I realized that, I had it in my mind that I was going to create my own personal version of the film to enjoy for future viewing.

Trimming away some of the film's sleaze, a conversation contradicted by the next film in the series, a few nips and tucks, and creating a new ending via more trimming, I managed to create a version of Part 5 that I could actually enjoy. Pleased with how it turned out, I decided to share it with you all here.
Additional Notes:
Additional color correction was done on top of Scream Factory's color correction to give the film an HDR-like look. There will be a "non-HDR look" version made available in the very near future. Mono 2.0 and 5.1 audio tracks included.
