In 1957, a young boy named Jason drowns in a lake near Camp Crystal Lake. The next year, two counselors are murdered. In 1980, a descendant of the original owners reopens Camp Crystal Lake with some counselors' help. The counselors gets killed one by one by a mysterious person. Could it be Jason, out for revenge?

Is this the scariest movie you will ever see, no. Will it be burned into your soul forever and ever, no. But take a half a step back and understand that slasher movies were still in their infancy and still trying to work out what they were. I know people were scared in 1980, but in 2025 we are all desensitized to brutality. It's a good start to a long running and iconic franchise. I'm watching all of them this October for the first time and I can say I hope they get better. Hahaha.
