Friday The 13th still holds up 40 years! It is the 1st so called "Slasher" movie!! A must see for all Horror movie fans!!! Tom Savini steals the show with his cutting edge Special Effects. I've seen this movie over 1000 times and will gladly watch it 1000 more.
Great movie. Just a story about a mother’s love for her son.

A disgusting, artless shocker...A cruel film that offers teen-age girls in peril, as well as a gruesome beheading. Only for sickies. [11 July 1980, p.8]
As the bodies pile up amongst this testy crowd of horny teens, there remains a vacant hole were someone scary should be. In a strange way, this film stands unique amongst all slasher films as one where the killer is nearly intangible.
Friday the 13th is neither tense nor frightening (although, to be fair, it is at times creepy and atmospheric, due in part to budgetary limitations that led to a low-key style).
