While the original Friday the 13th (1980) gets the credit for launching the slasher boom, (1981) is often cited by fans and critics as the entry that truly perfected the franchise's formula. Released just one year after its predecessor, this sequel successfully transitioned the series from a "whodunnit" mystery into the iconic legend of Jason Voorhees.
