A great underrated movie

13 years, 7 months ago at Aug 20 8:39

" In 1957, a young boy named Jason drowns in a lake near Camp Crystal Lake. The next year, two counselors are murdered. In 1980, a descendant of the original owners reopens Camp Crystal Lake with some counselors' help. The counselors gets killed one by one by a mysterious person. Could it be Jason, out for revenge? Friday the 13th, marked the beginning of a blood, series of horror films, and a successful one too. Kevin Bacon, made one of his first film appearances and was memorably killed off."

Pros and Cons of Films: Vol. 1 (121 movies items)

"Pros: The make up effects by Tom Savini The over atmosphere of the film, and initially not knowing who the killer is. The music by Henry Manfredini. The ending. Adrienne King As Alice, and Betsy Palmer, as Pamela Voorhess. Kevin Bacon, in one of his first film roles. The scares. Con: Some are turned off by the violence, that occurs in the film."
