Friday the 13th

Friday the 13th stars Betsy Palmer, Adrienne King, and Jeannie Taylor. This movie was shot in 1980.

Friday the 13th is about a boy who drowns at Camp Crystal Lake. He then comes back from the dead as a grown man, and starts mass murdering the camp counselors. The name of the killer is Jason Vorhees, but his mother starts the killing first. Jason ends up getting a hockey mask, a jump suit, and boot as his attire for the murders. He uses a machete as the prime weapon. No matter how hard someone tries to kill Jason, it is like he is indestructible and returns to finish his business.

I would recommend this movie to anyone who likes a scary movie once in awhile.
