	Media	Author	Review
		Vincent Canby The New York Times	"It's worth recognizing only as an artifact of our culture"
		Eric Goldman IGN	"In the scheme of things for 'Friday' fans, this movie was a stop gap"
		Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting	"It tends to be one of the most polarizing and divisive entries in the series. You’re on board with this brand of chaos, or you’re severely annoyed by poor, broken Roy Burns’ attempt to copycat an icon."
		Steve Davis Austin Chronicle	"In short: same as it ever was, same as it ever was."
		Jeremiah Kipp Slant	"Agatha Christie this ain’t. The tone is crude, raunchy, and leering, with kill scenes combined with more nudity than usual (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
