Movies You’ve Only Just Watched

The original Friday the 13th.

More detailed review here (another shameless plug).

While being clearly inferior to Halloween from a technical and production standpoint, this was a fair bit more fun. It didn’t really take itself too seriously and knew it was mainly a shameless cash grab but something about it just worked. I think they handled their killer better (and I loved that twist) but the characters were mostly just forgettable and Annie should have been the final girl. I’m not really sure how they progress the story from here though but I’m interested in seeing them try.

Let’s go with, uh… 5.75/10
