This should be rated PG
Because it's not scary, has unrealistic gore, limited nudity, and Jason becomes a moralistic wimp. Fun for the whole family!

Just because Jason didn't kill the children doesn't make him a moralistic wimp. He probably understands that they pose no threat to him and is angrier at the adults. After all it was counselors like them who let him drown while he was still a child himself. Plus he spent most of the fourth film trying to kill Tommy, who was a child at the time. It was only after Tommy disguised himself at the end that Jason hesitated to kill him. As for the movie being PG rated, limited blood and lack nudity aside, this movie has some pretty brutal kills.

This would've never passed for a PG rating. The atmosphere, directing, and overrall comedy does give it a bit of a Joe Dante vibe at times though.
shareYou know, call me crazy, but I have this strange theory that Jason decided not to go after children after the incident with Tommy in Part 4; because let's face it, we have seen him kill a pregnant woman in Part 3 (granted, he had no way of knowing she was pregnant, but she was still pregnant nonetheless). So, perhaps after seeing Tommy with a shaved head (which reminded him of his 11-year old self), something may have clicked in Jason's mind that made him realize he was a child once.
Anyway, I don't get why gore hounds are slamming films like this or Part 7 for not having any child deaths, when Parts 1, 2, and 4 never technically had any either!
Let the storm rage on, the cold never bothered me anyway...

Jason has never killed a child.
It's simple really, he knows that they were not to play for his death, nor his mother's death.
He murdered a pregnant woman in part three and a handicapped man in two. Plus, Jason drowning in part one was a child death in itself. Much more horror there.

Whatever hipster metal dude. Brutal (a trendy word) kills? Name one. Like the black girl's head getting twisted off? Haha! ok.
Part 3 Jason is much more evil and kooler.
BTW, I love real hip hop. You metal nazis always try to bully people who like other genres. Get better hobbies.
