Friday the 13th (1980)

Sean Cunningham’s horror classic with Betsy Palmer, Adrienne King, Kevin Bacon, and some great Tom Savini effects kicked off the 80s slasher film craze. Rolled 27x40 studio re-strike poster was issued when they made Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981) and put the original slasher classic back in theaters. You’ll find a ton of people calling this an “original” poster and charging top dollar for it. They’re not entirely wrong. It is an original studio issued poster. It’s just not an original studio issues poster. An original Friday the 13th one-sheet will be 27x41 and has the screen service announcement on the very bottom of the poster, which is all this restrike is missing. And it’s not worth quite what an original one-sheet is fetching these days, but is certainly a suitable, and cheaper, substitute that’s well worth owning. In Very Good condition.
