Synopsis

When a summer camp at idyllic Crystal Lake reopens 25 years after the tragic drowning of a young boy named Jason, the woods fill with the happy squeals of young campers and the sight of the furtive couplings of libidinous counselors. But when a violent rainstorm isolates the lake, one-by-one the counselors are horribly murdered in this film that launched a modern horror genre.

Frank Mackey
Classic beginning to a classic horror series
06 December 2008
The original Friday The 13th was the one that started it all. It goes like this- Camp Crystal Lake, after being closed for a number of years is reopening. The Camp has been closed for so long due to a number of catastrophes such as the young boy Jason Voorhees drowning in the lake, cabins catching on fire, and tons of camp counselors being brutally slashed and murdered by a killer running loose in the camp. So when the camp is being reopened, its deja vu, the new camp counselors are in for it. The killer is back and is ready for more. This is the movie that started in all, the classic slasher series that has a total of 11 films to date. The movie is good, but don't expect a truly scary horror film. It’s full of some tense moments, nice jumps, and gore, lots of gore. Any horror collection isn't complete if you don't have at least one Friday the 13th film, so this one is not to be missed.
