The first and only Friday the 13th of 2008 is now upon us and millions of people around the world are cowering under their beds terrified of being run over by buses, struck by lightning, or shot out of the sky during a transatlantic flight. In order to ease these superstitious fears and still remain in the spirit of the day, I've decided to list the best nude scenes from the first four installments of that greatest of all horror franchises, the Friday the 13th movies.

Friday the 13th (1980)

Before Jason Voorhees rose from his watery grave to wreak havoc in Camp Crystal Lake his mother (Betsy Palmer) was on chopping duty, taking revenge for her young son's accidentally drowning by gruesomely murdering a group of counselors trying to re-open the camp. About 36 minutes in to the movie one such counselor, Marcie Cunningham (Jeannine Taylor) displays her bun-and-mams before a porking by a pre-Footloose Kevin Bacon. Politely waiting for the nudity to play itself out, Mrs. Voorhees dispatches of them both soon after.

Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981)

Featuring the first appearance of Jason as the killer (but still without the hockey mask) and the best nudity of the entire franchise, Part Two is a worthy sequel indeed. At the 45-minute mark, the unspeakably hot Norwegian beauty Kirsten Baker strips for a skinny-dip and gives us a good long look at her fronties, fanny, and furburger.

Friday the 13th Part 3 (1982)

Part Three is notable both for its use of 3D in the theatrical version and because it introduces the iconic hockey mask that gave Jason his recognizable look. Intercut with the extremely memorable scene of a guy walking on his hands followed by a through-the-floor shot of Jason bringing down his machete into the poor bastard's upturned package is the extremely MAM-orable scene of future Channel 4 News Co-anchor Tracie Savage taking a shower and showing off her perky rackage.

Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter (1984)

The fourth installment (and far from "the final chapter") features the talents of The Honker from Yonkers, The Last American Virgin star Lawrence Monoson, and all-around freak show/genius Crispin Glover. It also includes an epic skinny-dipping scene about 27 minutes in with twins Camilla and Carey More and Judie Aronson.
