I was hoping for something a bit different....
Seeing the title, Jason X, I was hoping for a wacky adventure where Jason gives up killing to become a civil rights activist for zombies. He would claim he killed all those people cause they always treated him like an outsider, and now at his old age, he would give up the slayings and focus on bringing the human and zombie races together, or try to use the same propaganda to make himself rich, whichever.
Much to my chagrin, this was about Jason, cryogenically frozen, only to resurface 400 years in the future and cause some wackyness abord a spaceship, filled with, you guessed it, pretty teenagers....it works everywhere, people!! The female doctor who was in the room when he awoke was much too hot and young and scantilly clad to live, leading to an excellent kill scene, one of this movies few redeeming scenes. A few sex scenes, a few boobs, a few people trying to kill him and pooping themselves when he doesn't die, you know, all the basic things. They had a pretty cool looking regeneration system called Ants which looked pretty stellar, so they milked it for all its worth. The second half of the movie, Jason becomes more of an afterthought while the ship has problems, and I think that took away from the Jason experience and turned it into some futuristic drama, blahhhhhh!! Uber Jason comes back revamped, looking like a masked linebacker, to wreck havoc upon whats left of the crew, which isn't much. The end is in true horror movie fashion, leaving the door open for Jason 38, where he kills people from a wheelchair and complains about his hip and wears visible diapers.
Overall, a few excellent kill scenes, some boobies, and the rest was pretty much stupid. That being said I still watched it and didn't wanna kill myself. Im in a generous mood, so I will give this 2 1/2 out of 5 beers. A bad movie, but Ive seen much much much worse.

). But in acting, it was pretty poor.
