 Review:

 This movie sets up the basis for the rest of the series, especially "Freddy vs Jason."
The music is iconic almost everyone knows it or has heard it as one time or another. Most of the kill shots are in the first person camera mode, making sure you don't really know who's killing until toward the end of the movie. The acting isn't bad, but the town crazy might have been a bit over the top. 
Keep in mind that Friday the 13th was a low-budget film. The movie spawned 11 movies including a reboot, which mean Jason's legacy will continue to live in the hearts of horror fans.Paying attention to the details is what I do. that being said, why is there a deadbolt on the inside of the pantry other than giving a character a place to hide?

If you have seen the reboot and not the original, SHAME on you! lol
