Friday the 13th, number ??? Do we really need to count them anymore? In
this flick we have obnoxious, drunken, dope-smoking, 20-somethings that
have their karma leveled by a hockey-masked super-killer named Jason.
As in previous renditions, there are a couple of sympathetic characters
added for audience appeal while Jason murders the other repulsive young
twits one by one. There is much discussion in these pages about the
lack of originality in this movie, but the fact is there is little
originality in the entire Friday 13 series. The first Friday the 13th.,
1980, was just an American re-hash of horror master Mario Bava's Bay of
Blood, 1971. Fortunately, Mr. Bava had the good sense to quit after one
entry; that good judgment is missing from the American side which
merely sees the opportunity to squeeze a little more cash out of a
dated idea. Only for hard core fans of machete-massacre movies.
