Then we get into the full review of Friday the 13^th with Steve and him barely doing anything in the movie. First person view. The plot trying to trick us to who the killer is. The first time we see on screen or at least we think it was of the Waring crazy guy character and of course we try to figure out if Mrs. Pamela Voorhees had strong powers like Jason would have because she throws dead bobbies up trees and through windows with no problem at all with a nice sweater on.

So, get out there and hick hike around town to get to a curse camp and hope you want to get killed and listen up to the Retro Blood full review of the original Friday the 13^th.
