One of the best slashers ever made, in my opinion :)

Nothing original in the setting (don't expect it to be.) Not one good character (dont care if they die.) Not even fun (it's a predictable one by one kill with boring filler scenes.) Not even scary (maybe to kids in the 80s) Atmosphere? A little but even that's a psycho music rip off with added cha cha cha. Also Crazy Ralph... I love ridiculous but he's straight out of a pantomime. Is he supposed to be the character you think may be the killer earlier on? He couldn't catch a fly. Mrs Voorhees is just ridiculous although the most entertaining, which is sad. Some effects and deaths were OK. The whole horror story behind Jason is ineffective. Even by slasher standards it's mediocre. Gives horror a bad reputation

I'm usually pretty generous when it comes to movies that are outdated but in the case of _Friday the 13th_ I can't even begin to describe how utterly awful it is. It was the start of a bad franchise that just went (IMO) down the toilet almost from the get-go. I have to give props to the original for More

Certainly not the first slasher movie, but arguably the most influential.

This original film stands alongside _Part V: A New Beginning_ as the only two movies in a 12 film long franchise where they play the killer as a mystery, I think that premise would wear thin had they tried it every go aroun More

Horror films, and more specifically slasher films, have never been a high priority for me. In fact, until this week, I don't think I had seen a single slasher film. So, in recognition of the iconic reputation held by some of the classics of the genre, I am now setting out to remedy this gap in my More
