Friday the 13th is a 1980 American slasher film produced and directed by Sean S. Cunningham, written by Victor Miller, and starring Betsy Palmer, Adrienne King, Harry Crosby, Laurie Bartram, Mark Nelson, Jeannine Taylor, Robbi Morgan, and Kevin Bacon. The plot follows a group of teenage camp counselors who are murdered one by one by an unknown killer while attempting to re-open an abandoned summer camp. The film was a major box office success, grossing USD 59. 8 million worldwide. It was the first independent film of its kind to secure distribution in the U.S. by a major studio, and led to a long series of sequels, a crossover with the A Nightmare on Elm Street film series, and a 2009 series reboot. A direct sequel, Friday the13th Part 2, was released one year later. The movie was inspired by the success of John Carpenter’s Halloween, and Cunningham wanted to be visually stunning and visually stunning, like The Last House on the Left. In the film, Jason’s decomposing corpse is shown at a hospital surrounded by a police sergeant and medical staff who are tending to her, at which point she awakens in a coma. The killer reveals herself as the killer, she attempts to kill Alice, but Alice knocks her unconscious. At the shore, she tries to kill her again with a machete, but she falls and falls out of her canoe which floats out to the water. The final scene shows Jason’s decomposing body in a lake, surrounded by decomposing corpses, as the lake is shown as the peace at the end of the world.
The last scene shows the lake as it is still the peace, with the lake still full of life and no sign of any sign of the boy who drowned in 1957, and the lake being filled with water. It is the last scene of the film before the lake turns into a lake full of dead bodies, and it is shown that the lake has been drained of all its life-sustaining water for the past 22 years. The ending shows the camp’s owner, Steve Christy, being chased by an unseen person, who chases him into the woods and slashes his throat. He is then killed by a woman who claims to be an old friend of Steve and his family, who reveals that her son, Jason, was the young boy who died in the lake in 1957. The end sees Alice and Bill leave the main cabin to investigate, and they find the axe in Brenda’s bed, the phones disconnected, and Ned’s truck inoperable. When the power goes out, Bill goes to check on the generator. Alice heads out to look for him and finds his body pinned with arrows to the generator room’s door. Later, Steve returns and recognizes the unseen killer, who stabs him. While Jack and Marcie have sex in one of the cabin’s bunk beds, they are unaware of Ned’s body above them, his throat having been slit. When Marcie leaves to use the bathroom, Jack’s throat is pierced with an arrow from beneath the bed.
