A 80's slasher film with no nudity?
That fact alone makes this movie an utter failure in my book.
Show me the holes!
Nudity is a must in slashers. So i agree that it needed some t&a, but i wouldnt call it a failure or a bad slasher.
shareThe original A Nightmare on Elm Street and Black Christmas had no nudity and there was no nudity in Friday the 13th VI and that's the movie with the most respect from critics. If you nudity is your primary concern than switch it to porn. Some of us care more about a decent story and character development.
sharePart VI is a fan favorite and it was generally well-received, but it's not the one with the "most respect from critics". The original still stands as the most well-received film in the series, which isn't saying all that much given how much critics hate the F13 franchise. And for fans, Part 2 is also generally held in higher regard than Part VI. IV and VI are about on the same level.
Still, you definitely have a point. There was a time when slasher films were actually concerned with things other than just nudity and the kill count. Black Christmas and ANOES are prime examples of slashers without nakedness that were also quality films. Scream is also in that category.
I'd rather sit through a good film than a bad one, with or without the boobs. But hey, there's no reason you can't have both. Which is where Halloween comes in.

Really? Because most people seem to appreciate the original but like part 2 better or other sequels in the series. I wouldn't say that 4 and 6 are on the same level because as much as I love part 4 most if not all of the characters are unlikable and part 6 had a more well rounded cast and Trish wasn't as good of a heroine as Megan plus the death scenes were better in 6 in my opinion. Different strokes I guess.

Yeah, they prove you don't need nudity just a good story.

Elm Street has nudity when Nancy is being pulled down into the bathtub.

Judging slasher films by critical evaluation is foolish. Critics have never respected the genre and they can all lick my balls.
