2 iconic characters in the same film (1 more)
Much better than most of the Friday the 13th films
Slasher fan heaven
A pretty cool hack'n'slash film. Almost tongue in cheek at times, it could almost be a spoof of both series of films. The effects are cool and there is plenty of blood for gore fans. Nice to see a recent film starring these two cult film characters giving the fans what they like.

Very low budget (2 more)
Bad acting
Nothing funny for a comedy horror
Watch Friday the 13th instead
Another low budget Horror currently on Amazon prime. Also another one to miss. Starts quite light hearted and tries to recreate the 80's B movie slasher films. Although nothing particularly funny for a horror comedy. The last part of the film doesn't fit with the rest of it. Sadly another low budget offering not worth your time.

Very amateur Slasher
Stumbled across this on Amazon low budget UK slasher film that tries to capture the 80's Horror vibe. Obviously influenced by Friday the 13th mainly. Some of the ideas are OK, the score was good and Killer mask wasn't bad. Unfortunately as with most basic budget films the execution is poor. Bad acting, poor almost non-existent plot, cheap effects really make it one to miss.

Sleepaway Camp 1984: Not The Final Chapter
Well its been a good Friday The 13th, i reviewed Parts 2 and 3, and to conculded Friday The 13th, I though reviewing Part IV aka The Final Chapter aka Not The Final Chapter. Siskel and Ebert said it perfectly in their review of this movie, that even though its called "The Final Chapter", it wont be the final chapter, their will be more to come, cause it gets alot of money.
Also my third favorite charcter is in this movie and that's Crispin Glover's charcter. Behind Jason and Shelby of course. I also like the kills in this movie. Axel- throat slit, and head turned around. Paul- Spear in the crotch, Jimmy- he stabbed him with a corkscrew and a meat clever.
Part IV- recaps parts 1, 2, and 3. Which is great, telling the story about Jason and showing his kills.
And of course you cant forget about Tommy Jarvis. This started, his trilogy. Tommy is my 4th favorite charcter.
The plot: A carefree lakeside vacation is interrupted by the re-emergence of killer Jason Voorhees (Ted White). After he escapes from a morgue, leaving bodies in his wake, Jason travels to Camp Crystal Lake where a group of friends is staying. The teens meet some locals: Tommy (Corey Feldman) and Trish (Kimberly Beck), as well as secretive hiker Rob (Erich Anderson). As the group of teenagers engages in drunken debauchery, their numbers begin to dwindle, and pieces of the past resurface.
See next Friday The 13th.

Sleepaway Camp 1980
Since its Friday the 13th today, im going to review the oringal Friday the 13th film. The one that started it all. The one that started the franchise. This one started teenagers being teenagers. The one without Jason as the villian, wait what? I think everyone knows by now that Jason is not the villian in this one and its Jason's Mom, so i dont think thats a spoil, because most to everyone knows that by now.
The Plot: Crystal Lake's history of murder doesn't deter counselors from setting up a summer camp in the woodsy area. Superstitious locals warn against it, but the fresh-faced young people -- Jack (Kevin Bacon), Alice (Adrienne King), Bill (Harry Crosby), Marcie (Jeannine Taylor) and Ned (Mark Nelson) -- pay little heed to the old-timers. Then they find themselves stalked by a brutal killer. As they're slashed, shot and stabbed, the counselors struggle to stay alive against a merciless opponent.
Its suspenseful, horrorfying, terrorfying, love the kills in this one and overall a fantastic phenomenal classic movie.

A teen flick wrapped up in a John Carpenter film
There are many elements of 1970's and 80's horror films in this modern movie. From the panning cinematography and quietness of The Shining, to the virgin aspect of Halloween and Friday 13th. In this case, they've used the idea of sex to transmit a curse hence the plot is rather thin. And while the dream like quality is always eerie, the story wasn't strong enough to warrant a good rating.
