Camp 'Crystal Lake' is al meer dan twintig jaar verlaten, ten gevolge van een aantal afschuwelijke moorden, die daar gepleegd zijn én die onopgelost gebleven zijn. Een jonge man heeft het land gekocht met de bedoeling het kamp te heropenen, en huurt zeven jonge mensen om hem met de voorbereiding te helpen. Een plaatselijke religieuze fanaticus jaagt ze allemaal de stuipen op het lijf, wanneer ze hem verscholen in de provisie-kamer aantreffen. Hij waarschuwt hen dat er een 'doodsvloek' op het kamp rust en vlucht dan weg. Ongezien waart een sinistere zwerver rond... op zoek naar bloed.
Nee, helaas is Friday the 13th nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
