Kevin Bacon Movie:

Editorial Review:
This splatter flick, along with John Carpenter's Halloween, helped spawn the great horror-movie movement of the '80s, not to mention eight sequels, many of which had nothing to do with the films that preceded them. It also gave birth to Jason Voorhees, one of the three biggest horror-movie psychos of the modern era (the other two being Halloween's Michael Myers and A Nightmare on Elm Street's Freddy Krueger). Forever duplicated, the original Friday the 13th popularized a number of themes and techniques that today are now clichés: the increasingly gory murders, the remote forest location, the anonymous and nubile cast, the murderer as cult hero, and, of course, the moral that if you have sex, you will die, very painfully. Still, if you have to see a Friday the 13th movie, this is the one to check out. A group of eager (and horny) teenagers decide to reopen Camp Crystal Lake, which 20 years earlier was closed after the shocking and mysterious murders of two amorous camp counselors. You can take it from there, as the teens get picked off one by one, during a dark and stormy night; of course, their car won't start and there's no phone. The ending stole shamelessly from Brian De Palma's Carrie, but it still provides a slight if campy shock. Look for a young Kevin Bacon as the requisite stud--you can tell that's what he is because when the cast appears in swimsuits, he's wearing a Speedo--who's the beneficiary of the film's best murder sequence, an arrowhead to the throat. Right after having sex, of course. --Mark Englehart

Friday the 13th [Region 2] Reviews:
Friday the 13th, part 1
2009-10-09 - When I was young, this movie literally scared the hell out of me. Especially the ending. I jumped so high, I hit my head on the ceiling, and I didn't sleep well for weeks afterwards. This is a classic horror movie. Lots of blood and it's scary too. The music and the sound effects "chee, chee, chee...ha, ha, ha!" will scare you, believe me. Watch it home alone, at night, in the dark and you'll be turning on the lights real fast. :-) Jason Vorhees was the man on the 80's. This is the original 'teenagers go to camp and get slaughtered one by one by maniac killer' horror flick. This is the movie that all the others ripped off. Highly recommended.

I recently saw the new Friday the 13th (2009) and surprisingly it too was good. Usually I don't care much for remakes, but it was good. Check it out.

A true horror and thriller classic....
2009-07-29 - I have to admit, I was impressed with this film. Due to the fact that isn't just a horror and slasher film. This film is a very stylish thriller, cause uses the plot idea from Agatha Christie's "And then there were none" and puts a modern spin on things. Basically, the story takes place at a place called "Camp Crystal Lake". Where two young counselors are murder, when they sneak off to be alone. Of course, the camp is shut down after that and is not opened. That is until 40 years later, a new group has taken over the campsite and is going to try open it again. However, the group consists of very young, naive and inexperince people. Once the group learns about the camp's history. They are soon stalked and hunted down by an unknown assailant, who is bent on making sure that the camp is never opened. Now, the group must fight to stay alive until morning comes and they can get help. This film is truly impressive!!! Also Betsy Palmer and Adrianne King were true credits to this film. They did a remarkable job with thier roles.

F13, still one of the best
2009-02-14 - Still the best F13, heads above them all, and this is still the best version available on DVD in my opinion, since it is in widescreen format. The other "uncut" version is zoomed in and you can't see the whole image.

Excellent
