The movie that gave birth to one of the most famous killers of all time,Jason Vorhees.Although he became the killer in part 2 this was the movie gave us his name.This is by no means an original horror movie even when it was released in 1980,it borrowed heavily from classics such as Halloween,Psycho,Black Christmas E.T.C .The acting may be cheesy and maybe dull but this started the now extremely tired story of half naked teenagers having sex then being brutally murdered until the virgin girl is the last one left.This does have some scary moments and very creepy music.This is by far the best in the series with part 2,3 and 4 being worthy sequels but part 8,9,and 10 being dire and boring.Overall this is an underrated classic and though some of the sequels make the series look silly i would recommend you watch this one and see when the series was at its best and scariest.
