We’re definitely getting into the Halloween zone! The Rio Theatre’s Friday Late Night Movie series continues on Friday, October 13 with one of the all-time great entries into the blood great slasher movie canon, the original 1980 summer camp classic FRIDAY THE 13TH. With countless sequels, remakes, and reboots, it remains one of the longest-running film franchises ever, in no small part thanks to the original’s iconic aesthetic.
See it on the big screen.
On… Friday, October 13. That’s so meta! (Or something.) Also: Kevin Bacon.
Crystal Lake’s history of murder doesn’t deter counselors from setting up a summer camp in the woodsy area. Superstitious locals warn against it, but the fresh-faced young people — Jack (Bacon), Alice (Adrienne King), Bill (Harry Crosby), Marcie (Jeannine Taylor) and Ned (Mark Nelson) — pay little heed to the old-timers. Then they find themselves stalked by a brutal killer. As they’re slashed, shot and stabbed, the counselors struggle to stay alive against a merciless opponent.
