Friday the 13th

Friday the 13th is the only horror film series to achieve the "accolade" of having a franchise title, Friday The 13th, that has become synonymous with bad luck. This movie is where the phrase "day of doom" was coined and reinvented. The success of the original "Friday the 13th" movie led to eight sequels and made hockey-mask wearing Jason Voorhees a Halloween costume favourite and a pop culture icon.
