About this movie

Terror and suspense abound in this 24-hour nightmare of blood. Camp Crystal Lake has been shuttered for over 20 years due to several vicious and unsolved murders. The camp's new owner and seven young counselors are readying the property for re-opening despite warnings of a "death curse" by local residents. The curse proves true on Friday the 13th as one by one each of the counselors is stalked by a violent killer. This film is widely acclaimed for its horrifying and creative murder sequences.

Ratings and reviews

Do not support this movie. They killed a real living pet behind the back of the owner for a scene that was not originally in the script. The owner found out after his beloved pet was killed, actually killed, and was completely heartbroken! The real death of this beloved pet was recorded on camera and left in this movie. This is unacceptable. As the owner of a beloved pet ball python I am infuriated at every one of the people who worked on this scene and regret spending money on this movie.

This is one of the best horror movies. I like the way the kills ar ebut they are kinda cut down and they are mostly of camera and they aren't that good. But there's another reason this movie is not that good in my case (A-)

I wish they showed more than first person view but still good movie.
