I was listening to a podcast about F13 and I got the hankerings.
Holy moly did I pick the right slasher. I love some slashers because they’re gnarly, some because they’re weird, some because they’re genuinely good, and some because they hit the right buttons. This one is all over the place, but it hits the right notes for me.
The soundtrack! The absurd characters (doubled up by the Italian factor). “Colorado.” Dirt bikes! Aerobics while jogging. Charles Napier and Derek Hess. “I like Iron Maiden!” A scene where everyone throws buckets of water on each other. I found some of it spooky. The annoying “comic relief” is punished (go raiders). The setting is amazing. Sticks th landing. The slasher villain is done perfectly.
“Yeah? Well, you know what I think about democracy... let alone campers!”
It’s not gory but its sleazy and mean. Dark and intense when it’s not goofy. I cannot imagine there are that many other people who vibe on this, but it’s special.
I’d put it up there with The Slayer and Curtains.
