Now Playing Podcast Presents: The Friday the 13th Retrospective Series - Details, episodes & analysis

Camp Crystal Lake is open year-round at Now Playing Podcast. From the scrappy 1980 original through hockey masks, psychic showdowns, Manhattan detours, body-hopping mayhem, a space-bound slasher, and a Nightmare of a crossover, we’re covering every chapter of the Friday the 13th saga. Which films deliver genuine shocks? Which are pure ’80s cheese? And how does the 2009 reboot stack up against the blood-soaked legacy? Join Arnie, Stuart, and Brock as they revisit the kills, the camp counselors, and the ever-growing body count to find out which entries deserve to live… and which should stay buried at the bottom of the lake.
