Friday the 13th Ratings & Reviews
The Hollywood Reporter
Ron Pennington
It's blatant exploitation of the lowest order.
Common Sense Media
Charles Cassady
Infamous teen slasher film has gory violence, sex.
Rob's Movie Vault
Rob Gonsalves
It hasn't aged well; its nonstyle renders it pretty sedate these days.
CinePassion
Fernando F. Croce
Within the dead-teenie realm it achieves a certain classicism
City Pages, Minneapolis/St. Paul
Rob Nelson
Has there ever been a more unimaginative exercise in big-screen terror?
7M Pictures
Kevin Carr
What makes the movie work is that the slasher genre hadn't been set in stone yet, and some choices that director Sean S. Cunningham makes in the film that work against type.
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
a campfire boogeyman story designed to do little more than build tension and deliver a few well-timed shocks, which it does with precision and even a bit of artistry
Apollo Guide
Brian Webster
How do you sum up a movie that's really quite awful yet helped define a filmmaking era?
Groucho Reviews
Peter Canavese
Cheap and virtually plotless, Friday the 13th keeps cycling back to those low expectations: as a scary campfire tale, it gets the job done.
LarsenOnFilm
Josh Larsen
...a woefully bad slasher flick, complete with an inept cast (including Kevin Bacon in uncomfortably tight shorts); laborious pacing; and an interminable catfight climax.
What Would Toto Watch?
Christian Toto
Friday the 13th set the tone for the modern slasher flick. So you know which film to blame for all those lousy horror films.
Slant Magazine
Jeremiah Kipp
You really have to wonder what exactly made the Friday the 13th series so wildly successful.
Movie Metropolis
John J. Puccio
...perhaps more than any other film, it helped to popularize the slasher genre and codify the formula.
TheFilmFile.com
Dustin Putman
A skillful, if by-the-numbers, horror pic.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
For all its shoddiness, the film manages, just barely, to achieve its ignoble goals -- it delivers what it promises.
Antagony & Ecstasy
Tim Brayton
Makes not the slightest attempt to hide the outright theft of every one of its ideas from much better films.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Joseph Litsch
The whole film is one of the best arguments for resuming movie censorship to come along in years.
