Well you did use a bad refference for quality.
Halloween, The Thing, Poltergeist, Nightmare on Elmstreet. Just a few within the same period of time are all so much better than Friday.
Also, from all the movies mentioned above, Friday was the one with the least 'heart' put into it. As Sean S Cunningham later admitted, the movie was quickly made just to cash in on the Halloween succes (which they did well, obviously).
That said, from the iconic 3 slashers (Halloween, Nightmare and Friday) Friday got the better reboot. Zombie destroyed Halloween and the Nightmare on Elmstreet reboot really missed what Robert Englund put in the Freddy character. I honestly expected the Friday reboot to continue where the other two were doomed to fail (I believe a new Halloween movie, based on Carpenter's vision is in the making).
But I'm ranting. Hope you enjoy part 3 (although it was just a silly excuse to use the cheap red&blue 3d gimmicks. I'm sure it will make you chuckle at times
EDIT: I see you saw it and found it... better than 2. Hahaha we are so way off in horror taste
