<br />
==Ratings==<br />
===[http://www.mpaa.org/film-ratings/ MPAA Ratings]===<br />
<!--E.G., "Rated: R (Violence, Nudity, Language....)" --><br />
* Rated: PG (TV-friendly mild horror and mild adult humor)<br />
<br />
===Tentacle Ratings===<br />
A rough [[Tentacle Ratings|measure]] of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:<br />
* S____ (One Tentacle: Debateably Lovecraftian; has almost no direct connection to Lovecraft's work)<br />
<br />
The film sort of affectionately parodies many standard weird fiction and Gothic tropes, with the family summoning weird demons using a book that is essentially ''The Necronomicon''.<br />
<br />
''Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.''<br />
<br />
===Reviews===<br />
<!--A list of reviews for the work, along with the review's rating (for example, "4/5 Stars") * Author_andor_Location, ([URL link]) - RATING --><br />
Review Links:<br />
* Horror News dotnet, ([http://horrornews.net/50628/film-review-saturday-the-14th-1981/ link]) - "There are some movies that stand the test of time and no matter how long ago they were made still manage to enthrall audiences. I really wish I could say the same for Saturday the 14th.... I think the main problem with the film as I watch it all of these years later is that it is a product of the times.... Be warned if you decide to watch this: most will find it dull and while mildly humorous, not laugh out loud funny. Fans of eighties horror movies will like it more if not for the simple fact they saw it once upon a time and remembered it fondly."<br />
