best movie i've ever seen.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Friday the 13th is my all time favorite horror slasher film off all time. "Friday The 13th" that started the 80's boom of Slashers, and became a franchise it is in my top 5 best favorite Friday the 13th films. It is one of my personal favorite horror movies. It is my number 4 favorite "Friday the 13th" movie and my all time favorite film in the horror genre. Adrienne King is my favorite the final girl she is a bad-ass incredible heroine in the franchise. They aren't movies like are this one today.I love this movie to death and it is instant classic for me. I have the t-shirt about this movie the original film and I always wear it so much I love this film and this franchise. I watched this movie 8 years ago when I was a fan of Superntural and I have heard that actor Jared Padalecki was staring in the reboot Friday the 13th (2009) so I decide to checked 4 Friday the 13th movies: Friday the 13th the original, Friday the 13th Part 2, Jason X and of course the 2009 reboot because of Jared Padelcki and I have fun watching them. What can I say? I love this film to death I love it. I have all 12 films on Blu-ray discs and I re watch every year cause it is my favorite horror franchise and I have fun with them so much I love them. It is a great horror suspense film. I am more a fan of the sequels this film isn't my number one favorite film, but that is not bad, it is in my top fives best Friday the 13th films and it is in my fourth rank in the franchise. About the film this is a classic the death scenes are too slow very slow it is very slow paced. We never see the assailant or who does those murders but it is a great mystery who is doing the murders and I love it. When it comes one hour around the movie it self's becomes interesting, intense, fast paced and goes bloody around. Watch the last 30 min's with Betsy Palmer and Adrienne King there showdown, Betsy steals the show in my opinion. The last 30.mins of the movie is worth of watch. Betsy Palmer of the film was the best in my opinion and I really miss the actress so damn much. Directed and produced by Sean S. Cunningham. Tom Savini (From Dusk Till Dawn, Dawn of the Dead (1978) does special makeup effects for the film that I enjoy and they are great.In 1958 A tragic accident at Camp Crystal Lake a young boy drowns in the lake, while the camp counselors are too busy making out, then a little later on two teenagers are brutally murdered and the Camp is closed down. Then fast forward to 1980 and a bunch of teenagers are hired to open up the camp, despite the warnings and then one by one they are killed off.We have a beautiful cast in the film that I like such a: Betsy Palmer, Adrienne King, Robbi Morgan, Kevin Bacon, Walt Gorney, Peter Brouwer, Laurie Bartram, Jeannine Taylor and of course Ari Lehman as young Jason. All those actors were beautiful and excellent to watch.I love the gory, death scenes which were nice kills, the special effects were real practical and real done. I love practical effects and not the CGI's that are done today. Why are not horror movies like are this one today? Hollywood doesn't make movies like are this one today. The kills in my opinion were gory real practical. There was a snake that was killed in this movie and no she was not a puppet she was a real snake in this movie that was killed off, so the death scene was for real. The effects are really good and shows even this early, Tom Savini knows his stuff, like the throat slit, axe in the head and the epic head chopped off those are my favorite scenes of the film. Harry Manfredini makes a beautiful music score for this film. Friday the 13th the original film is my personal favorite horror film it is a great movie to watch it does kind a get slow the first hour but when Betsy Palmer appears it get's faster around.The DVD and Blu-ray has uncut version of the film which I am glad with it, I love this film to death, I enjoy it I love everything they done with the film. It is my number 4 favorite "Friday the 13th" slasher horror movie. In my opinion it is Sean S. Cunningham best film he every did. I want see any new films like are this one today.In 26. May 2017 Friday the 13th: The Game (2017) was released and I also bought Friday the 13th t-shirt with Jason's hockey mask on it and of the original film I have a t-shirt.R.I.P. Betsy Palmer, Walt Gorney, Laurie Bartram, Rex Everhart and Sally Anne Golden you are really missed. The first and the original movie get's my Bad-Ass Seal Of Approval 10/10 by me this is the one that started all the slasher boom.
Having been on a Friday binge lately, the time finally came to re-watch the original for perhaps the first time in a decade. Two things struck me immediately: 1. Kevin Bacon is in the movie and 2. how well it holds up. Granted, it's nearly 40 years old so the acting and effects aren't always the crispest, but overall it holds up very well, even better than some of the later installments. The movie also contains a sentimentality that the later ones do not; before the series turned into the Jason Voorhees hack-fest we all know and love, it was about a mother who loved her little boy so much she went mad. After the finale ending with the protagonist Alice decapitating Ms. Voorhees (praise Tom Savigni), we get Alice floating floating around in a canoe in Crystal Lake, while the sweet end theme by Harry Manfredini plays, until the infamous Jason-bursting-out-of-the-lake shot into Alice waking up in the hospital. We see some nice dialogue in the hospital as Alice and a police officer briefly talk about the events, ending with this: Alice: "The boy, is he dead too?" Police officer: "The boy?" Alice: "The boy, Jason." Police officer: "Jason?" Alice: "The one who attacked me, the one who pulled me underneath the water." Police officer: "Ma'am, we didn't find any boy." Alice: "Then he's still there..." cue a zooming-in shot of Crystal lake into end credits while the melancholic end theme plays again, highlighting the sadness of the little boy who drowned in the lake all those years ago. I got close to shedding a tear here. This piece of dialogue is also a brilliant foreshadowing of what was to come. Overall, a well done tragic slasher which by all means deserves to be viewed as a classic in the horror genre.
Friday the 13th is my favorite horror movie ever (im only 11). I may be 11 but doesn't mean i haven't seen a horror movie and this ones my favorite. but anyway lets get into the movie!!!!so we start our film in 1958 were 2 counselor's are killed by mystery person. we then skip to 1979 June 13th. here we meet Annie who gets killed in the first half an hour....so once weave met all our friends for the next hour we have some time till poor old Ned walks into a cabin and dies. so then a huge storm comes and begins the night of Friday the 13th... so at this point is when we see the teens get killed off one by one.so when Alice is the only one left a fun jeep appears with a fun face!! the films middle aged woman Mrs Voorhees who brags on and on about what happened to her boy Jason (warning major spoiler ahead don't continue if you don't want it spoiled)so then we find out shes the killer and she is going to kill Alice so for the next 15 Min's we see Alice run away until Alice has had it and chops Mrs voorhees head off...so then she goes out on a boat on the lake but a boy called Jason pops out and pulls her under. but this is only a dream (or is it) but in fact she wakes in a hospital bed and boom the end!now i love this movie as much as a nightmare on elm street and Halloween but for me this ones my favorite but we have many sequels to come hehehehe but for one final conclusion i love this movie to bits!
A group of camp counselors are stalked and murdered by an unknown assailant while trying to reopen a summer camp which, years before, was the site of a child's drowning. From the many horror films of the 80's i think that this is without a doubt the worst of them all. The marketing is out of place with the Poster where it makes you think that it's Jason who kills all of those kids but in fact it's his mother, the acting is terrible, the kills are predictable (poor Kevin Bacon). The characters are thin and the overall story is boring of course the Franchise became worse with each installment but this one i think it's very overrated as it is. And the fact that a bunch of teenagers can't kill an old woman makes it even more ridiculous and if there's a good thing about it? It's the final shot of Jason getting out of the water and drag a woman inside the water but other than that? It's not something special to brag about. (0/10)
