Greetings! In this episode I nerd out for about 30ish minutes on the 1980 Sean S. Cunningham classic FRIDAY THE 13th. That's right. The OG Friday. The one without the hockey mask-wearing, machete-wielding lake demon, known as Jason Voorhees.

Disclaimer: Jason was NOT the original killer in Friday the 13th... something that anyone who has ever seen SCREAM (1996) is more than aware of.  

Why you should listen: I discuss a little bit of the origins to Friday the 13th as a folklore. I breakdown the film a little bit. I offer a little personal perspective. And, yes, I share the scathing Gene Siskel review of this film. 

This is a fun(ish) one. Enjoy!
