"Hello and welcome to Off The Shelf Reviews."
"I'm actually Jason's biological Father."
"And I'm Gary."
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
LADS WE NEED THE REST OF THIS SERIES PLZ! 😩
Are you covering the rest of the series?!! I hope so :D, there's so many videos of people covering this series but you guys are definitely some of the most entertaining movie reviewers on TH-cam (to me).
Please do the rest of the series
Funny how people say jason drowned but when he jumps out at the end I always thought jason looked like he was burned.
30 years of living at the bottom of a lake will do that to ya..
I just noticed recently that Annie was dropped off in front of a cemetery. Interesting foreshadowing!
I like the idea that Pamela killing the teens was a sacrifice to bring her son back from the dead but when she died it messed the ritual up and so Jason came back as an evil killer.
The camp where they filmed Friday The 13th now offers a "Friday The 13th Visitors Package" which allows fans to stay at the camp in the offseason, it only costs $10.000 US.
the twist of the killer in this movie still works. People who hear of this film series think of the iconic killer (JASON) and when they finally sit down (for the first time) to watch they end up surprised at who actually is the killer
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck yeah!
Kickin old school tonight!

I wish that I could have seen this and all other classics in cinema back when these movies were showing things noone had shown before. The movies are still great now, but most people get the ending spoiled way before actually watching it which takes away a bit of the charm when seeing it for the first time.
I saw this in the theater when I was about 10 years old. Yep, I had nightmares that night.
BETSY PALMER
RIP
said :
" I READ THE SCRIPT AND SAID
` THIS IS A PIECE OF SHIT ´
I WON'T DO IT "
then she said :
" SEAN CUNNINGHAM SAID
` I WILL BUY YOU A
NEW CAR ´ AND I SAID
I'LL DO IT "
That's a quote from the
HIS NAME WAS JASON
DVD set
I remember watching this at a party in the 80's. The guys kept playing the Jason scene over and over, frame by frame, to get a better look at him. I still love this movie.
KelBig17 pretty much! Lol
Jill Last how was it the 80s VHS lol I was born 1987
KelBig17 hey! VHS was pretty friggin awesome...awesome enough to see Jason frame by frame. 😊
Oooooh, I hope we'll be seeing more of this series. Unlike Hellraiser, the quality doesn't drop off so sharply in the sequels. To all the fans, I highly recommend Crystal Lake Memories which is a documentary covering the making of all the of the Friday the 13th films.
Also, I believe the first F13 is the only film in the series that shows us which state Crystal Lake is in. It's New Jersey 6:47 .
Gotta do Part III and include the funky disco theme...
Can I make a request for you to review The Descent?
The Bengals just lost a very winnable AFC Championship game so I came back to watch this, calms me.
20:13 It didn't start that trend, Halloween did it first with Laurie discovering her friends in Halloween.
I have been waiting two years for this review thank you so much guys!!!
I’m honored to be a highlighted comment thank u again Gary and Iain!!! Can I get a “too sweet” ??😂😂
Looks like the intro of that film was also inspired by Jaws. Bunch of folks playing music at night, two of them sneak off to have some fun.....
You guys should do the whole series it would be very entertaining
JASON VOORHEES
was born in 1946
in 1980
JASON would have been
34 years old
So excited to watch! Keep it up guys!
R.I.P. Betsy Palmer
I went to day camps as a kid. I've never been to a sleep away camp
They definitely didn’t ruin it with the sequels cause imo the sequels that followed, particularly the next three, were all better than the original one is I think. I even enjoy the utter cheesiness and badness of A New Beginning to the first one as well. It’s just so over the top with all its sleaziness and ridiculousness that I just cant help but sit back and watch it. Part V is a classic so bad it’s good horror flick!
I never thought about that but, yes, Friday the 13th really is a franchise that not always tells you who will be the hero straight away. That's nice. Reminds me of Alien.
Crystal Lake is 20 miles but Ralph rides his bike there…… uhhh?
The ending score is the best
A great review of an iconic film.
I can't remember where but I read a theory that Jason in fact commit a kill or two in the movie and didn't drown thus making the sheriffs statement true.
The first one isn't the best of the series, but it does have a couple of iconic moments at least. Its watchable without being great. Which probably true of most of the series. Its more of a guilty pleasure.
Hell Yeah! I'm hyped as hell to watch this review! Let's go Shelfers!
A horror classic for sure.
I saw it when it came out (I was just about to enter 10th grade) and when I saw it I could not understand what the big deal was. All of my peers claimed it was "the scariest movie ever made," a claim they later made about Poltergeist, and all I thought about it was that it was merely gory and not scary or suspenseful in the least.
Please continue on and do a franchise review!! Love you guys, love your reviews
What a great birthday present for me gentleman. Thank you very much! :)
Excellent. Happy Thursday the 12th!
You guys are my favorite!!!!
"this film doesn't have the iconic killer" aww come on now Gare cut mrs. Voorhees some slack, she might not have the infamy of her son but she's kinda iconic in her own right, right?
FINALLY FRIDAY 13th! :D
Your reviews are the best! A+
Please review the original maniac. I still think it's savinis best work. Rip Betsy Palmer she's awesome in this.
I can't watch the snake scene. :( Snake...... SNAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't want to be one of those "will you please review the rest of the series?" commenters cause you cover a lot of different things on your channel and the entire franchise would surely take a chunk of your time but I value your opinions much more than other youtube reviewers and this is by far my favorite film franchise so...erm...will you please review the rest of the series? 😁
Lovely review by the way!
I can't wait for y'alls review of Jason X
Fun fact when the character brenda is throwing throw the window that is actually tom savini dressed as her
Looking forward to this and in my opinion part 2 is best in series 👊🏻
matt midgley part 6 is
I think part 2 has the best, most intense chase scene in the series... a very creepy vibe altogether... kinda wish we had the gore intact...
2 questions
1.Will you do the rest of the f13 films
2. Will you do the new halloween like al the others
Guys, love the reviews as always. Any chance of reviewing some other eighties gems. .. Dragonslayer, The Sword and the Sorcerer (awesome slice of fantasy ham with an 18 rating) or even The Medusa Touch with Richard Burton...
The guy from Hellworld? Oh, you mean Lance Henriksen? That young go getter has got a long bright and variety laden career ahead of him
😂😂😂 Good ol Dodgy Dave Down the Road
This is still my all time favorite slasher movie. I know Halloween started the ball rolling, but I just liked this one better.
Friday the 13th takes from Halloween but dose it its own way it was made as a rip off but the film itself stands on its own making it a cash in.Halloween itself takes from Black Christmas taking themes an style from it.Every horror film is a crib from Psycho
Some even say Jennifer Aniston made quite a career for herself after she did Leprechaun.
The musc is awesome but blatantly riffing on the PSYCHO theme , let alone the whole loving mother and loving son trope too in the movie.
Love Friday the 13th (1980)
I prefer part 2 imho - obvious a carbon copy
Amy Steel rocks though
and Steve Miner
I like your shirt Gary
This is my favorite
OH HELL YEAH
HAPPY FRIDAY the 13th
*Turn up*
My favourite of the series, Mrs Voorhees was far scarier than Jason lol Bava's A Bay Of Blood was a definite influence. First person view ala Black Christmas (1974) - you need to watch that classic, far superior to Halloween IMHO.
My neighborhood didn't have a dodgy Dave, guess I should be glad
At the end of the film, when Alice is in the canoe and is attacked by Jason, wasn't she rescued by the cop standing at the side of the lake?
Galantski No man. The boat sequence was just a dream. The hospital scene actually did happen.
It's not clear one way or the other, is it? Watch the discussion starting at 27:38, where Ian notes that the policemen later told Alice, "We pulled you out of the lake". That took place in the real world, not a dream. Besides, if Jason attack actually happened it's the most logical way to justify sequels, since otherwise he died because of negligent camp leaders--game over.
Of course, horror sequels don't always have logical continuity, and if that's the case here, she might have just dreamed Jason. But there's another problem with it being a dream sequence, and that's the camera's point of view. It's not shot like it's from Alice's point of view, which would be the more usual way of shooting such a scene. It's like there's just the establishing shot from across the lake, then closer up, as Jason springs from the water.
A proper dream sequence would have the establishing shot, then a closer up one, then one from inside the canoe with the viewer seeing what she does. Say, perhaps, she sees a friend on the shore, waves, then turns back to look at the water when Jason pounces. Maybe the lack of knowledge in how to storyboard the scene caused the ambiguity as to whether Jason was really alive or just a figment of her imagination.
Galantski You make a lot of good points man....and all of them are very valid. But yes, that scene of Jason attacking Alice is just a dream. If she had indeed encounted Jason, he would have drowned her and that scene would have ended the movie. Instead, she wakes at the hospital all hysterical after dreaming that Jason had attacked her. I understand how confusing it can be. As you say, there are a lot of continuity errors in horror movies. And another reason why I know it was a dream? In Friday the 13th Part 2 it starts off when Jason kills Alice at her apartment. So it's kind of like she had a premonition type like dream that even though she escaped Camp Crystal....that she was still destined to die at the hands of Jason Vorhees.
I'm not as well versed as you in the various installments in the franchise, so thanks for bringing up the opening of Part 2. You may well be right, but then what are we looking at at the end of the original after the attack? Alice wakes up terrified in the hospital, but are we really sure it was just a dream or more like a flashback?
The sheriff says two of his men rescued her out of the water, which suggests she was in the canoe. She asked him if Jason was still alive, but he acts like he doesn't know who she's talking about. Isn't it possible that they just didn't see him when he pulled her under? You mention that Alice might have had a premonition of dying at the hands of Jason, and I can see that, but what about his successful attack in the apartment simply being the second time he sought to avenge his mother's death, while the canoe scene was the first attempt.
He's a link you might like to take a look at where the writer looks at it from both sides--dream sequence or real event. He even has a TH-cam clip from _Halloween,_ where he shows that the same kind of ambiguity shows up in other horror films, too.
www.philipmeade.com/movies/the-friday-the-13th-dream-sequence/
Galantski I just saw the link that you provided and without a doubt it is an incredible written article where it talks about the ending scene being either a dream or if it actually happened. I was convinced 100% all this time that the end scene was a dream but after chatting with you and reading the article I'm now at only 60% convinced it was a dream. I'm sure that everyone who has seen Friday the 13th, some people might think the end scene was a dream and some might think it happened for real. I think that was the director's intention of leaving the ending as ambiguous so as to get people talking after the movie was over and after chatting with you and looking at both sides....you gotta admit....Sean Cunningham succeeded in doing just that.
Well, here's a crowdpleaser! My favourite Fridays are 6 and 9 because they break the formula, this one is pretty lame except for Kevin Bacon, always entertaining to see big stars in embarrassing early horror roles. I always reckoned Jason is actually undead, we see the Necronomicon from the Evil Dead series in part 9 so I figure she used it to bring him back but he came back wrong and that drove her nuts.
Ralph was only trying to Give good advice his delivery left a lot to be Desired, so Misunderstood that Ralph, oh Well he tried to Warn them, on to the Body Count it is after all Friday the 13th
Friday june 13th.....thats my birthday.
Nice
First! I’m really excited to see what you guys think of this.
In 1980
JASON would have been
34 years old
not a child
He drowned as a boy... or did he?
@@GamerWho
I'm not sure
Hey, me an Iain have the same shirt. Cool. :P
Can't remake this one today, no way a load of teenagers can fix anything let alone a camp!
I will give you a dollar if your next intro is, "I am the wisdom of Iain"
Revolver movie review please :)
I see what you guys are doing this Friday is Friday the 13th so why not review Friday the 13th hahaha
andrue cates today should be gaming Friday that tomorrow the film...I'm glad we got this anyways
Yesterday was Friday the 13th again, would have been a nice opportunity to do another entry in the series..
This is a reupload, right? I mean, there no way you guys havent reviewed this before. Cmon.
I thought yall already did this movie?
Ki Ki Ki, Ma Ma Ma...
Sean S. Cunningham, whether he meant to or not, warped the slasher genre with Friday the 13th. After this film it was all about jumpscares and gore, before it was about atmosphere and dread. Carpenter even butchered Halloween II to make it more like Friday the 13th (for some reason, Halloween made more money than Friday the 13th so I don't get it). Halloween was how a slasher film should be, but no-one ever made a film like it again because slasher films were marketed exclusively to young people with short attention spans out for a quick thrill. That was not Halloween's audience, that was a different audience altogether.
Too many words for anyone to respond to I guess. That's usual. A shame that TH-cam isn't a place where people take an interest in thoughts that take longer than one sentence to express.
I appreciate this movie a lot but I always skip it when I re watch the series.Aside from the Pamela twist it has very little to offer.Are you guys doing the entire series?
review legend 1985!
Krylovix black as midnight,black as pitch, blacker than the foulest witch... 😁 i love Blix
Tim Curry as the Lord of Darkness is the best character in the film. While I prefer Jerry Goldsmith’s score, I like some parts from Tangerine Dream. Plus the sets look amazing.
Alea Anderson hearing tangerine dreams sound track took me deep into movie sound tracks! Favorite movie set to date! Both versions of the film provide a unique feel to me!
Finally!
poor snake, that´s terrible
The final chapter is the best friday after this one
You guys did not talk about the most important part of the film: Kevin Bacon's mysterious bulge
Is it really that much of a rip-off though? I mean it has a stalking killer obviously, but otherwise it's not similar really?
Johan Öberg I totally understand what you mean but Sean S Cunningham is quoted saying “have you seen Halloween? let’s rip it off” So while it is in a different setting and the back story is different the Execution is mostly the same
+Bruiser Brown i agree with my fellow (Brown) brethren. Plus they are using a date ( holiday ) as a title.
That was done before Halloween though Halloween took that idea from Black Christmas it also took parts of the style from it.
The execution is only the same in the sense it has some one not seen killing people an one survivor.But the style an themes are different as is the feel an tone.The theme of Halloween which itself takes from Black Christmas is about a girl who dosent focus on sex an represses herself then she has to deal with as man following her wanting to put a knife in her the original Halloween was never about the sister plot it was all a sexual metaphore. It wasnt Michaels story But Curtis.Carpenter took the first person view from Black Christmas himself as well as the killer stalking female angel.Halloween is a better film then Black Christmas but it just like how Friday took from it it took from Black Christmas which itself took from Psycho
And all rip off from Italian horror.
👍
Don't know if it meets your criteria for the female protagonist killing the villain, but "I Spit On Your Grave" came out in 1978.
Fuckin' A!
Seriously, fuck PlatinumDunes remake!
This original film is brilliant! Whenever a month falls on Friday The 13th, I "MAKE SURE" to watch this film everytime!
I don't know why, but whenever I watch this film, it makes me wish I was there in the 80s! Props to Sean Cunningham, Tom Savini, the cast and everyone involved with the film! *
I've never been a fan of this franchise. I think it's really overrated but it's fun to see your review. Hope you guys do the rest of the franchise like you did "Hellraiser" and "Halloween". It's gonna be awesome if you do.
Why not uploading it on friday 13?
Daniel Orozco Because Thursday is gaming Friday.
Daniel Orozco Sorry for any confusion. What I meant to say is Thursday is movie review and Friday is for gamin. That is why Gary and Ian released the review for Friday the 13th on a Thursday.
Goddamn it Ralph,
get out of that cupboard and GO HOME! 😮💨__👉
🐐🐐
Savini did come back in part 4 he figure he started it and would finish it.
One of those singular incidents where the sequels are better than the original film
eric brown lies
Those girls were cute why'd they have to die?
