friday the 13th is well-known or even a classic in its genre and i have searched for the vcd for a long time. too bad it does not meet my expectation. in fact, everything is not what i have expected, it lacks suspense, surprises and chasing which are the rules for a successful slasher flick. comparatively though it is unfair to do so, scream (1996) redefines the genre and fulfils all those requirements and it rocks as a result.
the final twist is surprising and saves the film from getting a failure. the only reason to watch the sequels is to find out whether jason, the long dead son of the crazed alice would return.
