Friday the 13th: The Series Ep. 63 Year of the Monkey Review

Year of the Monkey originally aired on January 15, 1990. This was yet again another good, but not great, episode. There are two cursed antiques in this episode. One that's mentioned at the beginning is a tea set that can make the tea become poisonous. This is retrieved off screen after the credits role. The second antique and the prominent one in the episode is three statues of monkeys. These are the see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil monkeys. If the children fall and use the monkeys evil powers, they will die. The villain is a father who has been the same father for six generations. He keeps on killing his children until he finds someone who is honorable. He finally finds someone in his daughter. She opts to take her own life as opposed to killing her father. She shows honer, however twisted it may be, even in her own death. The villain gets tricked and is killed by the own statues he used to kill his children for six generations. This episode was fine, but not very memorable in the long run.
