I wasn't impressed with the Burning . Almost bereft of any kills , the raft mass killing accounts for 95 percent of the deaths in that film . The last few minutes in the mine and the raft bloodbath are just about the only things I'd reccomend this movie for . Cheap F13 knock-off IMO .

At any rate, if you want a good quality DVDr, try revok.com They are 14 bucks, but a very nice transfer.

You're right,but I think the lack of kills added alot of element to the movie.. expecting a kill and it doesn't happen...

Savini's work on this movie was outstanding , but I still think this movie was lacking in critical areas .

How is it better than F13 ? Cropsy is a Jason Voorhees clone . It promises many scares but doesn't deliver until the ambush on the raft . Two severed thumbs down .

Perhaps he is referring to Friday 1? Cropsy is a Jason clone indeed.

I'm wondering that myself considering he's on a F13 message board making that statement .

Maybe hes just a straight up gorehound and for that reason alone he prefers The Burning, cuz i could understand that.

True. The gore in The Burning was better than any Friday (but that is the MPAA's fault in a way, Friday more well known, and in turn more edited to not offen Reagan's "moral majority"). I alsothink Cropsy was a bit meaner than any Jason.
And Jason Alexander had hair in it.
(if friday was pre Reagan,sorry for bad memory of dates)

Just watched this tonight. I thought it was great. Kill scenes were pretty darn good. Better than I expected.

The Burning was being filmed at the same time Friday The 13th Part 2 was being fimed. Tom Savini turned down Friday 2 to do The Burning, so the similarities between grown Jason and Cropsy is purely coincidental. However, the premise for The Burning is taken from Friday The 13th.
The Burning even has a carbon-copy campfire scene like friday 2.

Well, it was no doubt inspired by F13. Some people call Cropsy a Jason clone, w/o knowing that Cropsy came before Jason.

Its a great film and Cropsy is a great Character... People have said hes just a Jason clone but when i watched this movie the first time round the only thing that entered my head was Oh its like Friday the 13th being at a camp and that was it. For the rest of the movie my eyes were peeled to the tv.
It might not have a lot of kills but that dosnt matter coz when the kills come they are pretty dam gruesome..
Its a great lil budget movie and shouldnt be flamed so fast as a Friday rip off..
