Full Take

Rather quaint by today's standards, Friday the 13th still has its share of bloody surprises and a '70s-holdover aesthetic to slightly compel. Crystal Lake's history of murder doesn't deter counselors from setting up a summer camp in the woodsy area. Ace verdict: more niche than essential, even if the movie still has a few sharp edges.
