There are many similarities between the '80s horror classic and the 1971 Giallo slasher.

With eight films released in ten years, the Friday the 13th franchise was the king of the 1980s slashers. Though the first film excelled as a mystery with the reveal of Pamela Voorhees as the killer, it was the sequel and the introduction of Jason Voorhees that turned the movies into a pop culture phenomenon.

A Bay of Blood tells the story of greedy, unlikable characters all fighting with each other over real estate and fortunes, with a bunch of them hacked up as a result. It can't quite be considered your typical slasher, as there is no final girl and the plot doesn't follow the typical tropes. A Bay of Blood lies somewhere in between a giallo and a slasher, but one segment of the film would go on to directly influence what Friday the 13th would find great success in recreating.

The rest of A Bay of Blood is more of your typical Giallo in an odd and hard-to-follow mystery story with multiple adult characters offing each other over money and the bay's ownership, but for one act anyway, it was a full-fledged precursor to Friday the 13th. You don't have to be a slasher aficionado to see the tropes first created here.
