Friday the 13th is a whodunit slasher film where a mysterious killer is going around a supposed haunted camp (Crystal Lake) and killing off the counselors. If it wasn't for Friday the 13th chances are the overpopulation of slasher films wouldn't have been as probable, and THAT deserves respect. It may have the goofy acting that many of them did, but it's still worth watching.There are no memorable characters (unless you count Kevin Bacon, and his "star" appeal). The replayability (if thats a word) is very high. If you watched the uncut version, you know that the ten seconds of extra footage actually helps improve the kills quite a bit. Anyone who enjoys a good slasher should enjoy this one.
