Tommy Jarvis (John Shepherd) killed Jason once and for all and since then he was mentally scarred by him.
He is now all grown up and has been transferred to another mental institution near a farmland.
He has a hard time adjusting to things there as most of the people there are way more disturbed than he is as he encounters one of the clients there hacking up another client with an axe and then sent away to prison.
He also encounters a crazed mother named Ethel Hubbard (Carol Locatell) and her more crazed son Junior (Ron Sloan) as they live near the area and complaining about the clients trespassing and threatening to shoot them.
He keeps seeing images of Jason as well as having nightmares of him returning making him temperamental!
Then people are getting slayed there as well as around the neighborhood area and the killer is wearing a hockey mask and this time it's for real. (Is Jason still alive he wonders).

 

Mick Martin & Marsha Porter's DVD/Video Guide said this about the film. "They did it! They promised that The Final Chapter would be the last of it's kind. They lied!!!!" Which was the total truth of course.
Jason wasn't even in this one (You'll see what I mean when you watch the end).
Plus no Crystal Lake so what's the point of this one?! This was noted to be the worst Friday film to fans.
The film was also extremely silly to top it all off.

The acting is in good shape so far which is much better than the plot behind the film.
John Shepherd does extremely well playing the disturbed patient Tommy Jarvis showing no emotions and keeping to himself. 
I used to watch Reggie Shavar in the series Different Strokes as he played one of Gary Coleman's friend's. Shavar does well with his part as I liked his character too as an outgoing kid who wants to have fun and make people happy.
Carol Locatell also delivered as a nutcase which she did really well at performing making her character come to life. But however, Ron Sloan who plays her cracked son plays way too comedic as he seems like he's performing a comedy than playing someone who is mentally crazy.
This was also one of Miguel A. Nunez's first acting gigs before he made it big time.

Debbie Sue Voorhees exposes her big breasts while making out with John Robert Dixon's character in the woods and her body is almost all revealed too. There is also a butt shot of her while she is lying dead
Juliette Cummins takes off her top wearing nothing but tight underpants while getting undressed to go to bed.

Lots of graphic violence.
The most gruesome scenes were a showing of a corpse of a guy in the asylum who was brutally slayed by an axe showing his body pieces
Theres a bloody slit throat
An axe is whacked in a head
Eyes are plucked out
A sharp object is stabbed through a guys chest
by another client there as well as a guy being decapitated.

Danny Steinmann knew what he was doing for this film as he knew his craft as a director as he tried his best to make the film itself entertaining but however he makes it look way too comedic with the liners of the actors police officers and coroners.
He did show a great dream sequence during the beginning of the film with Corey Feldman watching two teenage pranksters digging up Jason's grave.
John Shepherd is great when he looses his temper in a scene where John Robert Dixon's character tries to scare him. Great energy.
He was also noted for directing the cult low budget action flick Savage Streets which starred Linda Blair. A much better film than this one.

The music was composed by who else??? Harry Manfredini as he composes a little different than his usual work in the films using intense horn and violin playing.
Plus, there's a songtrack of "His Eyes" by Pseudo Echo

Sheriff Cal Tucker: Morning, Ethel. My, don't you look lovely today.
Ethel Hubbard: Horse shit! Now, Sheriff, you better hear me, and hear me good. I want this looney bin closed down. You hearin' me fella? Now these kids ain't nothing but trouble. They don't respect other's property, and they're all crazy!
Junior Hubbard: You tell 'em Ma! Ha hah.
Sheriff Cal Tucker: Ethel, these kids weren't doing...
Ethel Hubbard: Doing? Doing? You think I don't know what those two perverts were doing in my yard?
Junior Hubbard: Say it like you mean it, Ma!
Ethel Hubbard: Would you shut the fuck up?
[the kids laugh for a minute]
Ethel Hubbard: Now, I'm gonna tell all of ya, you mark my words, the next little bastard that comes near my farm, I'm gonn' blow your fuckin' brains out, you hear me?
[Tucker approaches]

Vinnie: I'm telling you Pete, this is bullshit. This really sucks!
Pete: Just do it. Fix it, man. Those cunts aren't gonna wait all night.
Vinnie: [Looks under the hood] Oh fuck, this is a mess.

Vinnie: This is a mess. No way. I refuse to do this! You're the one who keeps fucking around with it so get off your ass and fix it! You understand? Pete!
Vinnie: [Pete honks the horn loudly, startling Vinnie. He then begins to laugh] You are an asshole!
Vinnie: Aww, what's the matter, Vinnie? You scared of the dark? You all creeped out by that murder at the nuthouse?
Vinnie: Oh yeah, sure. Look, as far as I'm concerned, all those loonies should be killed off one by one. Can you try it now?
Pete: [Engine won't start] Geez, man, can't you do anything? Stop screwin' around! Get this thing done by the time I get back. I gotta take a crap.
Vinnie: Crap my ass!
Pete: Just do it, man! I mean it.
Vinnie: [Pete walks away] Fucking asshole!

Demon: You're gonna get it, bitch!
Anita: Lighten up, Demon, you'll feel a lot better after you shit.
Demon: I'll feel a lot better when I'm out of here. This shitbox is gross.
Anita: You better watch out for the snake that's going to crawl up that crapper and bite your ass

George: Go and let everyone else know breakfast is ready.
Reggie: Yo! Breakfast! Come and get it!
George: I could've done that.

Ethel: [to chicken] I'm gonna chop you into itty, bitty little pieces, my friend. Just like they done to that piggo over at that fuckin' crazy farm. Eeeeyah!
[decapitates chicken]
Junior: Eeeeyah!
[imitates Ethel using spoon]
Junior: Ha ha ha ha.
Ethel: You big dildo. Eat your fucking slop! Ain't I make the best goddamned stew in the whole wide world?
Junior: Best goddamned stew in the whole wide world, Mama.

Sheriff Cal Tucker: I know who it is.
Mayor Cobb: What?
Sheriff Cal Tucker: I said I know who it is.
Mayor Cobb: Who?
Sheriff Cal Tucker: It's Jason Voorhees.
Mayor Cobb: Jason Voorhees? You're outta your fucking mind. You've been out in the sun too long. Jason Voorhees is dead! His body was cremated. He's nothing but a handful of ash.
Sheriff Cal Tucker: [Tucker stands up firmly] You know that for sure, Mayor? Were you there? Did you see him cremated?
Mayor Cobb: Jason Voorhees?
[Tucker nods]
Mayor Cobb: I can't believe this! Look.
[pulls out glass dish with Jason's ashes inside]
Mayor Cobb: This is your "Jason Voorhees" here.
[pours ashes out]
Mayor Cobb: This!
[plants dish in Tucker's hand]
Mayor Cobb: Your ass is on the line here, Tucker. Are you getting that? You get me a Goddamn LIVE suspect!
[Cobb exits. Tucker, enraged, breaks the glass dish by throwing it against a wall]

Ethel: Holy shit! Who the fuck are you and what the fuck do you want?

Ethel Hubbard: That is one fucking ugly man that goes there.
Junior Hubbard: That's one fucking ugly man, Mama.
Ethel Hubbard: Would you shut your trap? You ain't so pretty yourself, you know.
Junior Hubbard: I ain't so pretty myself, I know.

Tina: Eddie, we can't. Matt will kill us.
Eddie: Fuck him!
Tina: Fuck you.
Eddie: Exactly. Fuck me.

[Billy is preparing cocaine]
Billy: That's it. That's the whole fuckin' thing right there. There it is, you just stay right there, doll. That's just what the doctor ordered. Nothin' like a little prevented medicine. And, the forecast is; Cloudy in the mountains, sunny in the valleys, and snow flurries, up your nose!
[Takes a whiff]

Billy: [pulls up to diner] LANA! HEY, LANA!
Lana: Sorry, buster. We're closed.
[giggles]
Billy: It's all right, I just want a take out order.
Lana: You do, huh? Well, what would you like?
Billy: I would like Lana to go with nothing on her.
Lana: Oh, and who wants her?
Billy: The pride of the Unger Institute of Mental Health, who has just dumped his last bedpan and would like very much to party. Will you get your ass out here?

Lana: [shows her breasts] It's... Showtime!

Ethel: [after Junior is decapitated and Ethel hears the door open] 'Bout time, you fuck wad. I knew you couldn't pass up on my stew.

Pete: Alright, either you got the car started for you're a dead man.
[while humming a tune, he tries to start the car]
Pete: It ain't starting, man. You fucked up again. It ain't startin'. I'm gonna kick your ass... Kick your ass. Come on now. Come on now, everybody... It ain't starting. Come on, motherfucker... Fix the fucking car! You fucked up again, you asshole... Hey what you doing out there Vinnie?
