The first entry of the F13 franchise is the beginning of many slasher tropes from the 80s. I had a good time watching it.

It’s a must watch because of its influence on the slasher genre, not because it’s particularly good.

A seminal slasher film that set the standard for the genre. With its eerie atmosphere and shocking ending, it remains a horror classic.

Pure exploitation, but required viewing cause of Tom Savini’s work.
