Crystal Lake Memories: The Complete History of Friday the 13th is an incredibly in-depth documentary that explores the making of one of the landmark horror franchises of the twentieth century. The film analyses the series from its low budget 1980s origin at a New Jersey summer camp to the blockbuster release of its 2009 “reboot.” It combines hundreds of rare and never-before-seen photographs and film clips, as well as outtakes, archival documents, conceptual art and behind-the-scenes footage. There is also a wealth of interviews with more than one hundred and fifty cast and crew members, spanning all twelve films and the television series.
