  There aren't enough horror movies with killers wearing cable knit sweaters.

  Was this always this boring?

  I am a bit disappointed that this didn't age well at all. I appreciate what this film, even though it's riding the coattail of a true classic, has done for the genre, but it is far from a classic. It isn't even a particularly good film. You could even go so far as to say that we have all the shallow, trope ridden, 'ten little Indians' plot inspired films to thank for it.

  But still, credit where credit's due, this was one of the first ones and whether I agree with it or not, it has become an iconic film. Many slashers, including, the many sequels to this, are simple derivatives of this film, so…

  This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

  “Ma’am, we didn’t find any boy.” “Then he’s still there.”

  Suspicions have a way of seeping into the marrow and becoming a part of life, their omnipresence constituting perverse proof of their reasonableness. Take, for example, the belief in Friday the 13th’s unluckiness. There is no logical reason behind it, and yet it casts a pall over the day. So strong is the association that when Sean S. Cunningham decided to follow John Carpenter’s tremendously successful Halloween with a slasher of his own, he chose the title Friday the 13th before his story was even born, taking out an advertisement in Variety to secure his preference.

  But from where do the aspersions on Friday the 13th’s character arise? In truth,…

  Ms. Voorhees: "Kill her mommy. Kill her. Don't let her get away, mommy! Don't let her live... I won't, Jason... I won't."

  SYNOPSIS: A group of camp counselors is stalked and murdered by an unknown assailant while trying to reopen a summer camp where, years before, it was the site of a child's drowning and a grisly double murder.

  Without a doubt, the work of Cunningham and Carpenter during 1978 & 1980 rocked the world of the horror genre and kickstarted the slasher sub-genre into overdrive. Friday the 13th is one of the…

  “YOU’RE ALL DOOMED”

  Every few years my rankings for these movies change, but in my heart of hearts this will always be my favorite Friday. I love all of these movies for different reasons but this one definitely holds a special place for me—growing up not far from the filming location and being able to walk around the camp is/was a pretty awesome experience. I love the score, the characters, the camp, Crazy Ralph, the kills, giallo vibes, Betsy Palmer, the reverse norman bates shit, the yellow raincoats, the trucker saying “head full a rocks”, that decapitation, the Carrie ending, and all the sequels that would follow. 

  Dunno what else to say about this that hasn’t been drudged to death by now,…
