Friday the 13th
By Dawson Leatherman

Right out of the gate this movie has a few too many inappropriate things for me to talk about, but here is what I can tell you. Friday the 13th has some of the greatest gore and special effects that I’ve seen in a scary flick in a while. Of course Jason Vorhees still has his trusty machete, but the director updated his hockey mask with a newer model.

The plot may confuse you in the beginning because Jason starts the slashing off in the first couple of minutes, but don’t worry -- the slaying continues for the rest of the movie. With a diverse cast of characters, the newly-rebuilt Friday the 13th maintains the authenticity of young adults just looking to have a good time. When they stumble upon Camp Crystal Lake and the hockey-masked Jason Voorhees, it all hits the machete.

Rating: 8.5 out of 10 Chupacabras
