Summary
Pamela Voorhees, a local resident at Crystal Lake, New Jersey, has been stuck in an abusive relationship with her husband since she was 16 years old. Feeling helpless as she continues to suffer through more beatings and verbal taunts from her other half, Pamela decides to take justice for herself; she murders her abusive husband in his sleep, dumps his corpse and never looks back. Only one more issue; she has discovered she is pregnant. Now a single mother, Pamela gives birth to her son, a physically deformed little boy whom she names Jason. Raising her invalid son all by herself, Pamela has no choice but to take him with her to her job at the nearby summer camp, Camp Crystal Lake. Unfortunately, the other kids don't accept Jason for his differences and harass him, leading all the way to his demise under the lake. After years go by, Pamela once again takes justice into her own hands, killing the counselors who neglected her son and having no choice but to summon him back to life through prayer. Now angry and vengeful, Jason and Pamela are back to spread more fear as a group of young counselors arrive for a summer of fun, preparation and mutilation.

Plot
Opening at a trailer near Crystal Lake, New Jersey in 1946, sixteen-year-old Pamela Voorhees (Taissa Farmiga) is a married and pregnant recluse preparing for the arrival of her baby. She is peacefully sewing dresses to make herself look prettier while talking aloud to her unborn baby. Pamela uses a soothing, calm voice to communicate with the child inside of her, telling him that she's going to take good care of him once he's born and promises to never let anything happen to him. Pamela's husband, Elias (Jensen Ackles) arrives home after working a rough day at the mine and drinking at the nearby roadhouse. He screams for Pamela to greet him, and she quickly rushes to his aid. In an excited manner, Pamela brags to Elias that their son has been talking to her. Elias brushes off Pamela's claims and insists that she's making up stories, since it's impossible for an unborn child to communicate with their mothers. Pamela insists that she's telling the truth, but Elias goes into the kitchen and prepares to eat dinner. He asks Pamela what she made him, and she brings out a platter of baked chicken, brown rice and dinner rolls.

The couple sit across from each other at the table and quietly eat their dinner. Pamela asks Elias how his day went at the mine, and he reveals a bandage wrapped around his finger because of an accident involving a pickaxe. She asks Elias if he's alright, and he coldly rebuffs her concern and continues eating. Pamela points out that she's wearing a new dress that she made earlier, and Elias comments that her food tastes a little cold. Pam offers to reheat the food in the oven, and Elias declines her offer, saying that the oven is too old to function properly. Pam asks her unborn baby if the food she's feeding him tastes good, and Elias slams his fists on the table, ordering Pam to quit talking aloud to her stomach. Frightened and wordless, Pamela follows Elias' order and remains silent. Elias apologizes to Pam for yelling at her, saying that his job as a miner gets under his skin and makes him lose patience sometimes. Pamela accepts Elias' apology and returns to her meal.

After dinner, Elias retires to his bedroom and falls asleep with an open can of beer. While putting on her robe, Pamela talks quietly to her unborn child while gently stroking her pregnant belly. She informs her baby that she will be the greatest mother and do whatever she has to in order to protect him. Pamela then goes inside her bedroom and lays down next to Elias, who is mumbling in his sleep. He drunkenly tells Pam that he loves her, and the two cuddle together before falling asleep in each other's arms.

The following morning, Pamela is woken up out of her sleep by the bright sunrise. She gets out of bed and makes breakfast in the kitchen. While cooking, Pamela prepares herself a drink made out of egg yolks, cinnamon, herbs and ginger. Upon taking a sip, Pamela begins to feel an ache in her stomach. She lifts up her shirt and observes her enlarged stomach, just as the baby kicks. Overwhelmed with joy, Pamela breaks down into tears while laughing out of excitement. She sits down slowly onto the floor and begins another conversation with her child, telling him that soon enough, he will be born and will come out perfectly. Pamela then strips out of her clothes, steps into her bathtub and takes a bath. She relaxes herself in warm water while gently scrubbing her stomach with a bar of soap, telling her unborn child that she will keep him clean and healthy for his arrival.

At the mine, Elias is dressed in his mining uniform and chopping at the concrete ground with his pickaxe in order to find coal. Overstressed by the excessive exercise, Elias takes a breath before going back to chopping. After work, Elias heads down to the nearby roadhouse where he orders a large mug of beer. While sitting at a booth, Elias drinks an entire one liter beer mug and thinks uncertainly about where his life is headed. Once he finishes, Elias gets up from the booth and leaves the manager some change. The manager comments that Elias doesn't have a lot of money to spend, to which Elias responds that his boss doesn't pay him enough. He then exits the roadhouse and hobbles toward his car, without considering the dangers of driving under the influence. Elias drives home and manages to make it there safely, but not without crashing into a mailbox along the way.

Upon entering his trailer, Pamela informs Elias that she's aware he was drinking. He tries to defend himself, saying that he had another rough day at the mine with low pay. Pamela asks Elias to take it easy with his drinking for the sake of their child, to which he assures her that his habit will dissipate once his child is born. Pamela continues to lecture Elias about his reeking breath, and he slaps her across the face. Elias abrasively notifies Pam that he's going to do whatever he pleases and threatens to hurt her more if she tries to stop him. He then retires to his bedroom and leaves Pam standing in the kitchen, crying and gently rubbing her cheek.

Pam gets into bed with Elias, who apologizes for his aggressive behavior that he blames on drinking. Pam sleeps on her side with her back turned toward Elias. He cuddles up against Pamela in an attempt to reconcile, promising he will be better for their baby. Pamela quietly asks Elias if he's going to hit their child whenever he misbehaves, and Elias promises her that he would never lay a finger on their baby. Pamela lays in bed stolidly, staring off into space without feeling any discernible emotion. Elias begins kissing Pam on her neck and shoulders, but she remains silent and turned on her side.

In the middle of the night during a thunderstorm, Pamela is woken up out of her sleep by the loud noises outside, and goes to the kitchen where she fixes herself a glass of milk. As she's drinking her milk, Pamela speaks quietly to her unborn child and comforts him, believing that he's frightened of the thunder. While talking to her child, Pamela hears a creaking noise coming from the hallway and calls out for Elias. When he doesn't respond, Pamela slowly walks over to the bedroom and sees that he's no longer in bed. Once she turns around, Elias appears and punches a startled Pamela in the face, knocking her down. Pamela briefly loses consciousness, but begins to squeal out of pain and drag herself across the floor. While she's crawling away, Elias kicks Pam in the ribcage and stomps on her leg. Pamela cries for help as her nose bleeds profusely, and Elias turns her around, kneels down and lectures her for continuing to talk with their child. Pam is too injured to even speak, so as a consequence, Elias smacks her across the face. He goes on to accuse Pam of hiding his packs of beer, and threatens to bury her in the yard if she ever commits the offense again. Elias then exits the trailer and leaves Pamela bleeding and barely conscious on the floor. Her vision becomes blurry and she starts spitting up blood. Pam attempts to stand up, but her legs are unable to function properly. She softly rubs her stomach and whispers to her child, begging him to not leave her alone. Pamela bravely stands herself up and staggers over toward the telephone. She dials 911 but just as someone picks up, Elias comes back inside and Pamela quickly hangs up the phone. Terrified and in fear for her life, Pamela stands still and quiet, without muttering a word. Elias walks by Pamela and suggests that she make herself another dress to feel better. He then returns to his bedroom as Pam remains motionless, too shaken up to even let out a breath.

Early the following day, Pamela paints the walls in her nursery. She promises her unborn son that she's going to make his room paradise so that he feels like a king, referring to him as her "special boy". While painting a streak of periwinkle blue across the wall, Pamela feels a sharp pain in her stomach. She crouches down and allows the pain to pass, when suddenly her vision becomes blurry and shaky. Pamela wobbles around the room trying to catch her balance, when suddenly she begins to experience a hallucination involving a blurred image of a woman standing in front of her. Pamela falls to her knees and hyperventilates in panic, as the vision becomes clearer. The woman in her hallucination is revealed to be herself, standing with an axe in her hand. Pamela blinks repeatedly to make the visual disappear, but to no avail. In her hallucination, Pamela swings her axe down on an indistinguishable man and hacks him to pieces. She screams in horror as her vision abruptly concludes, and Pamela remains on the floor while sobbing. She rushes over to the bathroom and vomits uncontrollably, severely disturbed by what she has just seen.

At the mine, Elias and his gang chop up blocks of cement when their boss provides them with their salary. Elias is upset once he receives a mere $21.59, and complains to his boss that he isn't making enough money to support his wife and soon-to-be-born son. Elias requests a raise, but is denied one. Angry and bitter, Elias storms off and drives home while slamming the wheel and mumbling profanities. He kicks open the front door and childishly rushes to the kitchen. Pamela is concerned and asks Elias if he's alright, to which he explains that he hates his job and desperately needs to make more money. While the two eat their dinner, Pamela offers to reach out to her parents and ask them to give Elias a job, but this makes him angry and he accuses her of calling him a failure. Pamela denies Elias' absurd accusation, but his temper continues to shorten. He informs Pamela that he can hear her every night talking to her stomach, and claims that her delusions are making him go insane. Pamela asserts that their son is making contact with her, causing Elias to snap. He flips over the table, slaps Pam across the face and pins her against the wall. Pamela sobbingly pleads with Elias to let her go, but her begging goes unheated and Elias punches her in the stomach. He forces Pam down onto the floor and brutally sodomizes her, leaving her to scream hopelessly in anguish.

Once Elias finishes, he drinks a few bottles of liquor and goes inside his bedroom. Pamela lays crying on the floor, holding her stomach and praying to God for help. She suddenly hears mysterious noises in her head and begins to slowly crawl herself across the floor, attempting to follow the direction of the voices. Pam unexpectedly finds herself inside of Elias' truck outside, where she discovers an axe lying in the backseat. Carefully, Pamela picks up the axe and stares at it while quietly asking her son what he wants her to do.

As a heavy rainstorm sets in, Elias falls asleep after finishing his beer. Pamela quietly sneaks her way into the bedroom while wielding the axe in her hand. Elias mumbles in his sleep and appears to be fully unconscious from intoxication. Pam stands above her sleeping husband and simply observes him for a moment, looking down at him with sorrow and regret. She then raises the axe above her head, swings down and decapitates Elias. His head rolls off of the bed and onto the floor, while his body remains on the mattress. In a vengeful, unsatisfied state, Pamela hacks Elias to pieces with her axe, cutting into his stomach, chopping off his arms and legs, and reducing him to severed parts scattered in blood all over the bed. She places his body parts inside of trash bags and carries them outside, where she dumps Elias' corpse into a lake. Pamela then pours gasoline all over her trailer and leaves a trail of it outside the door, before lighting a match and setting the trailer ablaze. She watches as her trailer burns to the ground while smiling out of relief and caressing her stomach.

Jumping forward 11 years to 1957, 27 year-old Pamela (Jessica Madsen) has given birth to a mentally handicapped, physically deformed son whom she named Jason (Jordan Pressler). She raises him in their house at 42 Cars Crash Road and apart from other children. Pamela is cooking a special breakfast for her son since it's his eleventh birthday. She calls for him to come downstairs once breakfast is ready. Jason, afflicted with severe facial deformities, Hydrocephalus, an enlarged head and mental disabilities, waddles down the steps and joins his mother in the kitchen. Pamela gives Jason a warm, tight hug and serves him breakfast at the table. Jason is typically quiet while Pamela proclaims how proud she is of him, and how in awe she is that he's soon going to be a year older. Jason remains silent as he awkwardly consumes his meal, and Pam assures him that his father would've been so proud of him. She tells Jason that she's been offered a job at Camp Crystal Lake as the cook by David and Louise Christy, therefore he is going to have to deal with being alone for a few hours. Jason becomes slightly upset, but Pamela promises him that once she gets home, they're going to celebrate his birthday. As Jason eats, Pamela stares at him with passionate focus as she sips her coffee.

Pamela drives over to Camp Crystal Lake and upon arrival, she meets fellow camp counselors Barry (Trevor Wright) and Claudette (Stefanie Scott). She heads into the kitchen and begins cooking meals for the adolescent campers while Barry and Claudette hang out in the cabin. Barry asks Claudette to have sex with him in the barn where no one would find them, but Claudette rejects his offer insisting that they watch over the kids like they're supposed to. The two make out for a little while simultaneously looking after the kids. Barry asks about Pamela and where she came from, and Claudette mentions that she lives in seclusion with a son who's rumored to have major deformities. Barry laughs and makes a joke out of this information, and Claudette defends Pamela saying she admires her for looking after a child with special needs. Barry eagerly brings out a bong and insists that they smoke while the kids are out playing. Claudette tries to reason with Barry to fool around later, but Barry refuses to take no for an answer. Claudette gives into Barry's charm and agrees to smoke with him, and the couple sneaks off into a private room where they proceed to smoke marijuana.

Later that night at the Voorhees home, Jason celebrates his birthday with Pamela. Pam, who's dressed up in her 1950s style blue white small dot housewife dress, presents him with a cake made from scratch and sings "Happy Birthday". After Jason blows out his 11 candles, Pamela claps and embraces him warmly. She calls Jason her "special boy" and brings out a present on the dining room table. Jason frenetically opens up the box and rummages through the wrappings, where he uncovers a hockey stick. Smiling out of overexcitement, Jason picks up the implement and plays around with it while Pamela films him on a coronet 44 vintage camera. She mentions that she bought it for him after noticing how much he loves watching hockey. Pamela assures Jason that once she makes enough money, she'll be able to afford lessons for him to take in hockey. She then cuts the cake and serves a slice to Jason and herself. While the two sit and enjoy their cake, Jason begins eating briskly and ends up getting frosting all over his lips, which makes Pamela laugh. She wipes Jason's mouth with a napkin and playfully asks him to eat slower.

In the middle of the night, Pamela is in her bedroom talking on the phone with babysitters. She's begging them to come over and watch her son while she's at work, but because of Jason's disabilities, nobody is interested in taking care of him. Pamela becomes stressed out as people continuously reject her offerings. After the last hang-up, Jason carefully steps inside her room and Pamela asks him what's wrong. He implies that he had a nightmare and is too afraid to sleep alone, so Pam compassionately allows Jason to sleep with her for the night. Jason giddily jumps in bed with his mom, and the two lie beside one another while staring into each other's eyes. Pamela caresses Jason's forehead and tells him she loves him more than anything in the world. Jason has trouble falling asleep, so Pamela quietly sings "Over the Rainbow" to him. Thanks to her soothing voice, Jason slowly begins to sink into a calm, peaceful relaxation. He finally falls asleep in Pamela's arms as she continues to softly sing her lullaby.

At Camp Crystal Lake, Pamela is back in the kitchen cooking meals for the campers. She puts on her hairnet and attempts to work the oven, but it short-circuits due to old age. Meanwhile, Barry is searching for his weed when he comes across Pamela, who's sitting by herself in the lobby. He kindly sits beside Pam and asks her if she's okay, and Pam says she's feeling a bit stressed. She asks Barry if he has a lighter, and he offers one to light her cigarette. Barry and Pamela engage in a friendly conversation as they each smoke a cigarette, and Pam opens up about how hard her life has been taking care of Jason without a father. Though he's a little too immature to fully understand her struggles, Barry empathetically listens to Pam and compliments her for being strong enough to take care of a special needs child all by herself. Pamela thanks Barry for talking to her, then hands over his weed. Barry is surprised upon learning that Pam borrowed his weed, and she humorously explains that even though she's a mother, she still enjoys getting stoned once in a while.

During a homeschooling session, Jason becomes frustrated that he can't understand basic algebra. Pamela tries walking him through it, explaining the different functions of symbols and how to manipulate them. Growing more discouraged, Jason shoves his books aside and rests his head on the table. Pam comforts him and assures Jason that he's smart enough to work out the problems. After showing some examples, Jason manages to write down and solve an equation accurately. He begins to smile and feel better because of his accomplishment, giving Pam a sense of achievement herself. She congratulates and embraces Jason, rewarding him with self-worth and hope. Jason then begins to play around with his word blocks and spells out a message: "Why can't I play with other children?" Staggered by the question, Pamela explains to Jason that she's afraid to let him interact with other kids because they may hurt him on account of his disabilities. Jason conveys his sadness through facial expressions, making Pam feel guilty that she's sheltered him from the world his entire life.

Unable to find a babysitter and ready to expose Jason to the outside world, Pamela takes him with her to Camp Crystal Lake. Jason is wearing dark blue jean overalls with a blue plaid button shirt with 2 buttoned flap pockets and black worker-style boots. Once they arrive, Pamela introduces Jason to Barry and Claudette, who both react uncomfortably. Jason is too shy to even stare directly at the counselors, and Pamela promises Jason that he's going to enjoy summer camp. Claudette and Barry begin to warm up and welcome Jason to the camp, reassuring him that they're going to make sure he has the best summer ever. Jason hugs Pamela goodbye and goes with Barry to check out the cabin he'll be staying in. Pamela gives Claudette some final instructions, telling her to make sure Jason keeps his distance from the other kids and that he's watched closely because he doesn't know how to swim. Claudette agrees to Pam's demands and informs her that she and Barry are going to take good care of Jason. Pam thanks Claudette and heads into the kitchen where she begins cooking.

Jason settles into his cabin and unloads his bags consisting of clothes, swim trunks, a tent, sleeping bag and toothbrush. Barry informs Jason about the activities of the camp and mentions that the lake is always available to swim in, but Jason remains stolid as he's given the rundown. Barry officially welcomes Jason to the camp and leaves him to finish getting warmed up. Jason places a photograph of himself and Pamela on his bureau for emotional comfort. He stares out the window watching as the other kids socialize with one another near the lake, desperately wanting to join in with them but too timid and insecure to do so.

Because of Jason's appearance, which consists of hazel brown, crossed eyes, yellowish deformed teeth, strands of reddish-brown hair and several bloated skull deformities on the right side of his face, he decides to give himself a disguise. Jason places a pillowcase over his head and cuts out a single eyehole on his left side. Taking a deep breath, Jason courageously leaves his cabin and goes outside onto the campground. He sits by himself on a tire swing and avoids making contact with any of the other campers. Gabriel Evans (Levi Miller), a judgmental, unsympathetic bully watches Jason while he's swimming in the lake. He signals his friends to look over and stare at Jason, and they all wonder aloud who he is and why he's hiding his face under a sheet. Gabe calls Jason a "freak show" and asks him to reveal his true face, but Jason ignores his taunts and continues to swing peacefully on the tire.

Barry and Claudette run into the woods and begin making out. Claudette worries that something is happening with the kids and that they should be watching them, but Barry brushes off her fret and continues kissing her. Unable to resist, Claudette takes her clothes off and has sex with a naked and inflamed Barry around the wooded area.

While the campers are going inside for dinner, Gabe pushes Jason and demands that he take off the pillowcase. Jason timidly turns away and powerwalks while keeping his sheet on, and Gabe grows more aggressive. He shoves Jason, pins him down on the ground and forcefully removes the pillowcase from his head, revealing Jason's grotesque, deformed face. Gabe and the other children scream out of fear and call Jason a monster. Jason remains lying on the ground, ashamed and humiliated as the children stare at him. Gabe gives Jason back his pillowcase and leaves him in his lonesome, but not without telling Jason that he looked prettier with the sheet covering his face.

As the campers eat their dinner cooked by Pamela, she sneaks off into Jason's cabin and gives him food to eat privately. Jason pushes his food aside and appears upset, prompting Pamela to ask him what's wrong. Unable to communicate properly, Jason shrugs his shoulders and continues sulking over the torment he suffered through earlier. Pamela attempts to increase Jason's confidence, giving him a profound speech about how he's beautiful on the inside and no matter what people say, he will always have the strength to resolve. Jason rests his head on Pamela's lap and she holds him tightly in her arms, promising that things will get better. Pam kisses Jason on his enlarged head and he proceeds to calmly eat his dinner in bed.

Barry and Claudette hold swimming lessons down by the lake. While the kids perform their strokes back and forth in the water, Jason is standing fearfully near the edge. He dips his foot in the water to test the temperature, but stops short of jumping in. Claudette blows her whistle and instructs Jason to get in the water, but he remains standing still. Realizing that Jason doesn't know how to swim, Claudette offers to teach him. She guides Jason into the lake and helps him to feel more comfortable, allowing Jason to get a feel for the water. However, once he gets his entire body underneath, Jason struggles to keep himself afloat. He flails his arms around and kicks frenetically, so Claudette lifts Jason up and sits him down. She commends Jason for trying, then leaves him to decompress. Having witnessed Jason's ordeal while chilling on the dock, Gabe smiles sadistically upon recognizing that he can't swim.

On a sunny day at the campground, Jason is sitting on the field by himself sniffing fresh flowers and holding insects in his hand to observe them. Suddenly, Gabriel and the other campers gather around Jason and begin harassing him, calling him ugly, grotesque and monstrous. Jason tries to remain calm and ignore the kids' taunts, but Gabe escalates the bullying by pouring dirt on Jason's head before placing a sack over his face. Jason removes the sack from his head and runs away from his tormentors, whimpering all the way to the dock while the other kids pursue him. Once Jason approaches the dock, he freezes out of fear of falling into the water. The campers catch up to Jason on the dock and gather around him, leaving him to cry out of helplessness. Gabe and the others resume their name-calling and form two groups; one group gets behind Jason while the other stays in front of him. Together, Gabe and the campers grab onto Jason and throw him into the lake. Jason struggles to keep afloat and screams for help, but no one else is around. Cruelly, the campers laugh at Jason in his helpless state and happily rush back to the campground. Jason screams and cries aloud for his mother while keeping himself above the water by flailing his arms around and moving his legs back and forth. As Jason's strength begins to weaken and his arms and legs give out, he sinks underneath the lake and drowns.

Meanwhile, Barry and Claudette are having sex in the woods. Though in a great deal of pleasure, Claudette asks Barry if they should get back to the campground and check on the children, but Barry ignorantly dismisses her concern and continues humping. Though she's slightly worried, Claudette finds herself so intoxicated by Barry's lovemaking that she completely forgets about her responsibilities.

Later that night, helicopters and police cars are swarming the vicinity of Camp Crystal Lake in an attempt to recover Jason's body. Scuba diving teams swim beneath the depths of the lake but report that no body has been discovered. Sergeant Jack Tierney (Brian Cox), a patrolling policeman in Crystal Lake, assumes full involvement in the missing persons case. Pamela is beside herself with anguish, crying so uncontrollably that she can't catch her breath. She sits in a police station while sobbing endlessly, waiting to be interviewed. Claudette leaves the interrogation room after being interviewed about what happened to Jason, and she uneasily approaches Pamela to apologize. As she's giving her sincere condolences, Pamela slaps Claudette across the face, blaming her for not watching Jason and letting him drown. Claudette battles through tears as she repeatedly apologizes to Pam, saying that she wishes she could go back and fix what she did. Sergeant Tierney excuses Claudette from his custody and invites a grieving Pam to join him in the interrogation room.

While being questioned, Pamela dabs her teary eyes with tissues and explains that she was in the kitchen cooking meals at the time of Jason's drowning. Sergeant Tierney sympathizes with Pamela and assures her that he and his men will work incessantly to find Jason, whether he's alive or dead. Unable to stop sobbing, Pamela struggles to answer Tierney's questions articulately. She believes that Jason was bullied by the other campers because of his disabilities, and they must've exploited his inability to swim by pushing him in the lake. Tierney offers Pam his condolences but disregards her accusations, telling her that she shouldn't put the blame on children who haven't been proven guilty. Still shedding tears, Pamela insists that her son was murdered by the cruel children at camp. Tierney comforts Pam as she continues to grieve for her son, but she can't overcome her sense of hopelessness that Jason is dead.

Back at home, Pamela goes into her bedroom and puts on a silent video recording of her 16 year-old self cradling Jason as an infant in her arms. She then regresses to a fetal state; curling up in bed and crying hysterically. Pamela lets out her wails while begging God to give Jason back to her. She covers herself under a blanket and attempts to fall asleep, though her tears continue to pour all over the fabric. Hours later, Pamela wakes up after successfully getting some sleep and walks into her bathroom where she obtains some painkillers. Staring at herself for a moment in the mirror, Pamela can feel her mental state deteriorating. She quietly gets back into her bed and lies down, falling back to sleep as the videos resume. On the television, footage shows Jason and Pamela laughing and embracing one another as they celebrate Jason's tenth birthday.

After losing touch with reality, Pamela spends the next six months in a mental institution. She sits in a group circle populated by other patients suffering from mental/emotional scarring. A psychiatrist asks everyone to share their experiences but Pam remains stolid in her seat. She stares off into space, looking directly at the white floor and walls while blocking out the sound of everyone speaking. Suddenly, Pam's snapped out of her trance once her name is called upon to speak. She explains that her son went missing six months ago and still hasn't been found. Breaking down into tears, Pam expresses her grief over her child and how he was all she had. The psychiatrist compassionately asks Pam what her son's name was, and while struggling to catch her breath, Pam says "his name was Jason."

While lying in her bed at night, Pamela turns over on her side and visualizes Jason lying beside her. She begins sobbing silently and tells Jason how much she's missed him. Jason whispers to Pam that he doesn't want to live under the lake anymore because it's too cold down there. Pam quietly begs Jason to tell her what she has to do in order to bring him home, and Jason explains that she must make things right by killing the counselors who let him drown. Feeling both sad and angry, Pamela promises Jason that she'll get justice for his death. Jason whispers to Pam that he loves her and she returns the sentiment before he suddenly disappears.

Following her release from the hospital, Pamela resumes her position as the cook at Camp Crystal Lake. On July 4th, 1958, the counselors throw themselves a party; drinking, smoking weed and participating in sing-alongs. Meanwhile, Pamela is serving the children dinner and watching them as they happily interact with one another. While the kids are sleeping, Pamela quietly sneaks into their cabins and checks up on them to ensure that they're safe. She tucks in the young campers and turns out the lights. Unable to stop thinking about Jason, Pamela drops to the floor and silently breaks down into tears while watching the children sleep. As she cries hysterically, Pam hears the group of counselors singing at the campfire. Her emotion suddenly changes from sadness to anger. Pam picks herself up and obtains a hunting knife from the kitchen before making her way to the counselors' cabin.

At the campfire, the counselors are sitting in a circle and singing "Michael Row the Boat Ashore". Barry and Claudette stare at each other romantically while they sing, with Barry signaling her to ditch the event and go have sex. After the song concludes, Barry and Claudette hold hands and stroll around the cabin. Barry suggests that they run over to the barn because no one will find them there, but Claudette is apprehensive and wishes to stay with the others. Insisting that he's horny and in dire need of "alone time", Barry pleads with Claudette to have sex with him. Though reluctant, Claudette gives in to Barry's needs and the two run off together. Arriving at the vacant barn, Barry and Claudette eagerly rush upstairs and head into an empty room. They begin to undress themselves and make out, while Pamela silently climbs the stairs.

While the two are on top of one another kissing, Claudette informs Barry that she hears someone walking up the stairs. Barry doesn't take Claudette's warning seriously and proceeds to grope and kiss her. During their passionate makeout, Pamela hides the knife behind her back and solemnly approaches the frightened pair. Barry and Claudette quickly let go of each other, zip up their pants and throw on their shirts as fast as possible. Pam wordlessly walks over to Barry, and he attempts to sweet talk her into believing that they weren't doing anything wrong. Pamela stabs Barry in the stomach with her hunting knife, causing Claudette to scream in terror. Barry clutches his bleeding stomach with both hands and collapses onto his knees, spitting up blood. Succumbing to his wound, Barry lifelessly descends onto the floor.

Claudette screams and hurriedly zips up her skirt and throws on her counselor's shirt. She staggers to her feet and pleads with Pamela not to hurt her, but Pam slowly walks toward her with a vengeful hatred. Claudette runs out of the room and attempts to hide inside some of the other rooms, but they're all locked. She bangs on the doors begging for help, but no one is around to hear her. Finally, Claudette finds an unlocked door and rushes inside of the empty cupboard to hide. As she stands silently inside the closet, Claudette attempts to hold back tears and shakes uncontrollably in fear. She carefully opens the door just slightly, noticing that Pamela isn't anywhere nearby. Claudette quietly closes the door and remains silently in the confined room. After a prolonged moment of silence, Pamela's blade punctures through the wooden door and pierces Claudette's stomach. She grips her bleeding stomach, falls out of the closet and drops onto the floor. Pamela hovers over a bleeding Claudette while wielding her hunting knife in dominance. Crying and gushing blood, Claudette begs Pam not to kill her. Pamela lectures Claudette about letting her son drown while she and her boyfriend were off making love. Claudette sobs in agony while spitting up blood, and apologizes for not paying attention and watching over the kids. She repeatedly and sincerely expresses remorse for neglecting Jason while he was being bullied, and for having sex with Barry instead. Pamela berates Claudette for being a "slut" and breaking her promise to protect Jason, especially knowing that he couldn't swim. She kneels down and uses her hunting knife to cut open Claudette's shirt, exposing one of her breasts. Pam claims that she forgives Claudette, but that the decision to let her live isn't up to her. She hallucinates Jason standing beside her, and asks him what she should do with Claudette. Jason whispers in Pam's ear, and Claudette, realizing that Pam is insane, screams in vain for help. Pamela informs Claudette that Jason has decided she must die, and she slashes Claudette across the throat with her hunting knife. Claudette lies on the floor clutching her bleeding throat and choking on her own blood, slowly dying. Pamela laughs insanely while expressing her love to Jason, before calmly vacating the premises.

Another young couple giddily rushes inside the barn and runs upstairs with the intention of having sex. As they approach the top of the stairwell, the counselors witness Claudette's dead body lying on the floor. Both teens are petrified, and the young girl screams aloud in sheer horror while Pamela happily walks home in satisfaction and disappears into the night.

During a heavy rainstorm, Pamela wanders naked into Camp Crystal Lake's woods. Falling onto her knees and becoming drenched in the rain, Pam conducts a séance beside the lake and reads passages from "Necronomicon Ex-Mortis", a mysterious book that supposedly possesses the power to bring life back to the dead. She recites lines, phrases and offers of human sacrifice aloud to the skies, praying for Jason to rise from the grave. Tremendous flashes of lightning begin to occur as the rain grows stronger. Pamela lays flat on the muddy ground while smearing Claudette's blood all over her nude body and soaking in the rain. As the blood washes away from Pam's torso and progresses into the lake, ripples appear in the water followed by bubbles. Pamela simultaneously giggles and sobs as she rolls around in the mud, when she suddenly notices a figure curled up next to the lake. Pamela rises and deliberately walks over to greet the figure. She gasps upon realizing that it's a living being, and she carefully turns the figure over on its back. Driven to tears of joy, Pam discovers that the deformed figure is Jason - adorned with detritus from the lake and curled up in the fetal position. Pamela smiles and laughs as tears pour down her cheeks, and she cradles Jason in her arms while smothering him with kisses. As Jason lays immobile on his mother's lap, Pamela assures him that nothing will ever separate the two of them again.

21 years later, 1979: Camp Crystal Lake has been closed and damaged by several fires while Pam was never suspected of the murders. Steve Christy (Chris Pine), the son of former Camp Crystal Lake owners David and Louise, has decided to renovate the camp and reopen it. He's invested $25,000 into the project, thus convincing most of the townsfolk that he's insane. Steve and a group of repairmen are fixing up the cabins just as Pamela (Naomi Watts) drives up in her Jeep and observes the scene. Pamela furiously storms out of her car and confronts Steve, demanding that he abandon the project to reopen the camp. Steve orders his men to continue working and kindly approaches the enraged Pam, softly informing her that he plans to have the camp up and running by summertime. Pamela tries to persuade Steve not to open the camp because it's caused too much trouble in town, starting with the drowning of her son. Steve sympathizes with Pam and offers his sincere condolences for what happened to Jason, but insists that it's time to bring back the joint in order for children to enjoy their summers and to clear the rumors that Camp Crystal Lake is haunted. Pamela reminds Steve of the double-homicide that occurred in 1958, the poisoned water supply in 1962 and the numerous fires that have spread through the area, but he still dismisses her complaints. In an attempt at compensation, Steve offers to rehire Pam as the cook, but she abrasively declines. After Steve finalizes that he's pursuing his goal to reopen the camp, Pamela, feeling bitter and defeated, returns to her car and drives off.

At a nearby public restroom, a middle-aged, overweight African-American named John Farrin (Ken Sagoes) is urinating inside of a stall. Pamela suddenly enters the bathroom and casually walks over to John's stall, where she knocks calmly on the door. John informs the woman that he's taking a piss and will be finished shortly, but Pamela rudely opens the unlocked door and frightens John. While initially annoyed, John quickly zips up his pants and greets Pamela amicably. In an ingenuous fashion, Pamela apologizes for waking in unannounced, but claims she really needs to relieve herself. John assures Pamela that he's not mad at her, and is in fact pleased that it was a woman who walked in on him instead of a man. Sticking to her innocent act, Pamela begins flirting with John, claiming that bathrooms are her favorite spot to hook up. Both confused and infatuated, John finds himself turned on to Pam's odd flirtations. Speaking in a robust tone, John flirts back with Pam, and she leans in for a kiss. The two proceed to make out inside the stall, the sound of their kissing emanating through the restroom. As they continue to kiss, Pamela unexpectedly stabs John in his groin with her hunting knife. His screams echo loudly against the restroom walls as he holds on tightly to his hemorrhaging genitals. John drops to his knees before dying a bloody death on the floor. Pamela searches through John's pants pockets and steals the keys to his Jeep, before exiting the stall and leaving John's mutilated corpse in place.

Hidden inside of another stall, Debbie (Jessica Makinson) overheard John being murdered and finds herself cowering in fear and shedding tears. She quietly unlocks the door and peeks outside through the crack, seeing Pamela standing nearby drenched in blood. Debbie closes her door and keeps quiet while standing still in her stall, covering her mouth in shock. After hearing the front door close, Debbie assumes that Pamela has left. To be safe, Debbie stands on top of the toilet, lifts herself up to the window, unlocks the pane of glass and crawls through. While she's halfway through the outside, Pamela bursts through the stall door and grabs Debbie's arm as she's climbing out. Debbie screams for help and holds onto the window pane, but Pamela manages to yank her down and Debbie lands headfirst onto the toilet seat before falling on the floor. Her head starts gushing blood and she dies instantly from blunt force trauma, while Pamela nonchalantly makes her way out of the restroom. She gets inside John's jeep, puts his key in the ignition and drives off, leaving her broken-down jeep behind in the parking lot.

Early morning of Friday, June 13th, Annie Phillips (Amber Tamblyn) stumbles into the Crystal Lake diner after getting drenched in the pouring rain, dressed in a raincoat and carrying bags on her back. She asks around for someone to give her a ride to Camp Crystal Lake, receiving a series of surprised faces in the process. Annie approaches the counter and uncomfortably asks the patrons how she can obtain a lift to the camp since she doesn't feel like hitchhiking in the rain any longer. While enjoying his breakfast, Enos Tucker (David Born), a trucker employed by Elston Oil Supply, volunteers that the nearest bus station is over a mile away. He offers to give Annie a ride so that her distance will be shortened by half a mile, and she graciously accepts. Out of nowhere, a crazed old man named Ralph (Tim de Zarn) approaches Annie and warns her to stay away from "Camp Blood", claiming that it's cursed and anyone who goes there dies. Enos dismisses Ralph's warning and threatens to send him out in the rain if he continues to bother people. Annie becomes frightened and backs away while Ralph continues to urge her to turn around and go home. Ralph insists that he's a messenger of God and that Annie is doomed if she pursues her trip to the camp. Enos pushes Ralph away and aggressively grabs ahold of him, forcing the manager to dial for the police. After being released from Enos' grip, Ralph leaves the diner and rides away on his bicycle. Annie is confused and shaken up, so Enos offers to get her a warm cup of coffee.

Annie and Enos sit across from each other at a booth and engage in friendly conversation over coffee. Annie asks Enos who Ralph is and why he thinks Camp Crystal Lake is haunted, and Enos begins by explaining that Ralph is a well-known alcoholic who rides around town on his bicycle rambling about nonsense. Enos goes on to mention that he himself believes that the camp is jinxed because it was the site of many unexplained disasters. He informs Annie that in 1957, an 11 year old child drowned and his body was never recovered. In 1958, two counselors were murdered in cold blood while no perpetrator was ever caught. In 1962, the water was mysteriously poisoned and fires were set subsequently. After explaining Camp Crystal Lake's morbid history, Enos urges Annie to quit her summer job. She takes in Enos' words but ignorantly asserts that she doesn't believe in superstitions, nor will she give up her job that she's looking forward to starting. Annie plans on cooking for 50 kids and 10 staff, and also mentions that she doesn't want to return home. Enos comments that her boss, Steve Christy, is insane for investing $25,000 into reopening the camp and will probably end up broke like his parents. Annie subtly laughs off his suspicions and peacefully drinks her coffee as she and Enos sit and stare out the window, listening to the thunder and watching the rainfall.

Ned (Keir Gilchrist), Jack (Max Deacon) and Marcie (Kirby Bliss Blanton), three counselors hired by Steve to help renovate Camp Crystal Lake, carpool to the camp. While Ned is driving along the Crystal Lake roadside, Marcie and Jack are making out with each other in the passenger seat. Ned comments that he hopes to hook up with someone at the camp as pretty as Marcie, which makes her feel honored while Jack rolls his eyes out of jealousy. Marcie asks Ned to stop off at a convenience store to pick up some snacks, and he pulls over into the parking lot. Ned stays in his car while Jack and Marcie hop out and walk around the joint. Together, Jack and Marcie purchase some bags of chips and tasty cakes while discussing how junk foods will probably be prohibited once the summer starts. To take advantage of their last few weeks of freedom, Jack stocks up on treats and snags a slice of pizza at the counter.

While Ned is patiently waiting in his car, Ralph makes a surprise appearance outside of his window and frightens Ned. Ralph abruptly asks Ned if he's going to Camp Crystal Lake, to which Ned backs away toward the passenger seat and implores Ralph to step away from his car. Ralph informs Ned that he's doomed if he and his friends go there, but Ned is too startled to listen. Finally, Ned threatens to call the police if Ralph doesn't go away, and Ralph insults Ned, calling him a fool and claiming that he will die. Ned retaliates by insulting Ralph back and threatening to kill him if he comes any closer to his vehicle, resulting in Ralph getting back on his bicycle and riding off into the hills. Ned catches his breath and lays back in his seat, and while he's finally starting to relax, Jack and Marcie suddenly get back inside the car and accidentally surprise Ned, causing him to jump and let out a frustrated scream. Jack and Marcie laugh in amusement and apologize to Ned for scaring him, but because he's too tense to explain, Ned disregards his frustration and hastily speeds away in his truck. Jack eats his pizza while Marcie snacks on her chips. Ned mentions that a crazy old man startled him and warned him to stay away from their destination, and Jack and Marcie confidently dismiss the story, asserting that every town has its crazy residents. Ned concentrates on his driving but is still slightly bothered by Ralph's ominous warning.

In front of the camp, Steve is chopping up a rotting tree stump with an axe just as Ned, Marcie and Jack arrive. They introduce themselves to Steve and he gives them a warm welcoming to the camp and thanks them for helping him out. Jack assists Steve in uprooting the tree stump while Marcie observes the area, admiring the open land and its beauty. Steve is unable to find his assistant so he excuses himself and goes to look for her.

Inside the main cabin, Comanche Lodge, Alice (Portia Doubleday) is drawing sketches in a scrapbook. Steve finds Alice and questions her as to why she isn't helping out, and she apologizes claiming that she didn't hear him. Alice puts her pens and paper away and grabs ahold of a broom and bucket. Steve decides to look through her drawings and compliments Alice upon finding some impressive sketches. He discovers a sketch of himself and is slightly insulted by his appearance, but Alice humorously claims that's the way he looked last night. Steve informs Alice that she truly has a talent in art and should pursue it. While watching Alice obtain her cleaning utensils, Steve notices she isn't happy and asks Alice what the problem is. She confides in Steve that she may have to go back to California and work something out with another man she left behind. Desperate for help around the camp, Steve implores Alice to change her mind and stay with him for at least a week. Reluctantly, Alice agrees to stay as long as the camp is fully renovated by next Friday, and Steve asserts that it will be. Out of gratitude, Steve caresses Alice's cheek but it makes her slightly uncomfortable, so Alice backs away and quietly apologizes.

While Bill is chopping up the grass with a machete near the lake, Alice approaches him and introduces herself. As the pair becomes acquainted, someone appears to be lurking in the woods, watching them. Alice and Bill begin to flirt with each other as they discuss their feelings over how their summer will go as counselors. After their brief conversation, Alice walks back to the main cabin while Bill resumes his chopping. As Alice is walking through the woods, she feels as though someone is following her. She turns around and calls out for someone, but no one responds and the only noise is coming from the wind blowing against the leaves. After a moment of silence, Alice continues her stroll back to Comanche Lodge.

Brenda (Shelley Hennig) is carrying heavy, cushion-filled targets over to the archery range and hooks them around wooden poles. She takes a moment to relax and suddenly hears a crackling noise coming from the woods. Brenda calls out for somebody, thinking that Steve is secretly observing her work from behind the trees. She wanders into the forest and looks behind a tree, but realizes no one is present. Upon returning to the archery range, Brenda notices that one of her targets is lying on the ground. She becomes slightly frightened and picks the target back up, when suddenly an arrow is shot into the cushion. Brenda screams and jumps back, before turning around and discovering that Ned shot off the arrow. He laughs and comments that Brenda is beautiful when she gets scared, making her feel both angry and amused. Brenda takes a deep breath and playfully threatens to kill Ned if he ever scares her like that again. Ned asks Brenda to show him how to properly shoot an arrow into the bullseye, and she reluctantly agrees to teach him. Brenda stands upright with feet shoulder width apart, and feet at 90 degrees to the target. She keeps a relaxed grip on the bow handle and places the arrow on the bow. Brenda positions her fingers on the string, pulls back the string, looks down the arrow and aligns it with the target, and finally releases the arrow into the bullseye. Ned is clearly impressed and attempts to follow in Brenda's steps. After Ned places the arrow on the bow and aims it toward the target, Brenda puts her arms around Ned's shoulders and straightens his body upright. She then guides Ned's hand when he's positioning his fingers on the string, and they both stare at each other romantically. As Brenda guides his hand, Ned successfully shoots his arrow into the bullseye. Brenda congratulates Ned and he mentions that he's still having trouble with his aim. Ned focuses his arrow at Brenda and jokingly threatens to shoot, so she laughs and runs away while Ned playfully chases after her around the field.

Steve gets inside his car and starts the engine, preparing to drive into town for the rest of the day. Alice, Bill, Jack, Marcie, Ned and Brenda gather around as Steve gives them some final instructions. He mentions that it's supposed to rain later and that they must inform Annie to start cooking as soon as she arrives. The counselors agree to Steve's demands and he rides off into town, leaving his employees to finish working by themselves. Ned reveals to everyone that downtown, people refer to this place as "Camp Blood". The six remaining counselors then part from one another and return to their assigned tasks.

After dropping Annie off on the main road, Enos wishes her good luck and says his goodbyes before driving off. Carrying her luggage on her back, Annie walks alongside the landscapes while holding her thumb out with the intention of hitchhiking to Camp Crystal Lake. As many cars drive by and refuse to stop, a jeep suddenly pulls over and the driver gestures to Annie to get inside. Thrilled that someone has stopped for her, Annie throws her bags in the backseat and slides into the passenger seat next to the driver, who is revealed to be Pamela. As per Annie's request, Pamela drives off in the direction of the camp. During the drive, Annie makes friendly conversation with Pamela, telling her how excited she is to be cooking all summer for children and spending her days outdoors. Pamela keeps quiet and focuses on her driving, which begins to increase in speed. Suddenly, Pam shifts her car into low, pops the clutch and floors it. Annie becomes nervous and asks Pam to slow down, but she stubbornly accelerates and insists that she won't let the camp reopen because it will only cause more trouble for those who inhabit it. Annie turns her head around and sees a hunting knife, axe and arrows in the backseat. In a panicked state, Annie opens the door and jumps out of the speeding vehicle, landing on the street and breaking her leg.

With the bone in her leg sticking out through skin, Annie slowly drags herself across the street while whimpering in pain. She screams for help just as Pamela steps out of her jeep and slowly moves toward her. Annie grovels on the ground, begging for mercy. Pamela kicks Annie in her broken leg, followed by another kick to her stomach, causing Annie to scream in agony. Pamela kneels down and punches Annie in the face repeatedly, accusing her of being just as neglectful of a counselor as they all are. Annie manages to pick herself up and limps into the nearby woods, while Pamela remains standing in the road. While holding her injured leg, Annie hobbles around and hides herself behind trees. As she roams further into the forest, Annie realizes that Pamela is nowhere near her. While stumbling through the bushes, Annie runs straight into Jason (Michael Bailey Smith), who's fully grown and dressed in scavenged clothes. She collapses onto the ground and pleads with Jason not to harm her, and Jason places his hand firmly around Annie's neck before lifting her up in the air. Annie gasps for air and grips Jason's arm before he snaps her neck and tosses her body onto a bed of leaves. Pamela then joins Jason in the woods and together, they hover over Annie's corpse. Pam congratulates Jason for accomplishing his first kill and informs him that there's many more counselors at the camp who need to be taken care of.

At the camp, the counselors decide to take a break from working and relax at the lake. Alice, Marcie and Brenda lay under the sun to get a tan while Jack, Ned and Bill swim in the calm, refreshing water. After tying a rope around a large tree, Bill and Jack grab on together and swing over the lake before dropping under the water simultaneously. Ned climbs on top of the tree and arrogantly orders everyone to watch him as he performs a backward dive into the deep end. While the counselors hang out and enjoy the sunny day, Jason and Pamela watch them from behind the woods. In another attempt to impress everyone, Ned sits on top of a go-kart he made out of wood, a bicycle seat and wheels, and rides straight into the lake. After a moment, everyone notices that Ned hasn't come up for air and no bubbles are rising to the top of the water. They begin to panic and call out for Ned, but receive no response. Jack and Brenda run off of the dock and into the water while Bill and Marcie step inside a canoe and use the paddles to row ashore. Brenda finds Ned unconscious and lifts him above the water as Alice comes running onto the dock with a life preserver. Brenda grabs onto the flotation device, Jack gets out of the water and, with help from Alice, raises Ned out of the water and lays him on the dock. Brenda gives Ned mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, but he remains unresponsive. Suddenly, as Brenda continues performing CPR, Ned grabs ahold of her and starts kissing Brenda. Everyone playfully screams at Ned after realizing he was pranking them, and even though Brenda's annoyed, she gleefully pushes Ned away and laughs off her annoyance. Ned stands up and apologizes to everyone for pretending to drown, but they ignore him and disperse.

As the song, "Hot Blooded" plays on the boom box, Bill, Jack and Ned sit on the dock and pervertedly watch Alice, Brenda and Marcie while they sunbathe. Alice notices the guys from the corner of her eye, and she alerts her friends that they're being watched. Brenda and Marcie giggle and decide to tease the boys, so Marcie turns over on her stomach while Brenda seductively rubs lotion on Marcie's back, making orgasmic noises and faces in the process. Bill, Ned and Jack continue to watch the girls in awe as their jaws drop, while Alice lightheartedly rolls her eyes and continues working on her tan. Brenda and Marcie then share a kiss on the lips, and Bill, Jack and Ned humorously moan in excitement as Alice sarcastically gags in disgust.

Alice, Marcie, Brenda, Ned, Jack and Bill swim together in the lake while laughing, splashing water at each other and enjoying themselves. Marcie asks Brenda what Vitamin C is good for, and she uncertainly explains that it neutralizes the nitrates. As she's treading water to keep afloat, Brenda looks out at the nearby woods and notices that someone is watching her. She looks straight into the forest and squints her eyes in an attempt to see what's out there, when suddenly Ned jumps out from underneath the water and playfully clasps Brenda's arm, frightening her. Brenda jumps, punches Ned on his arm and tells him she thinks someone's watching her. Ned breezily dismisses Brenda's concern and assures her that it's probably Steve, suggesting that he likes watching the young girls who he hires. Brenda takes one more look at the woods but sees nothing, leaving her slightly unsettled.

Back at Alice's cabin, she steps out of the shower with a towel wrapped around her body and brushes her hair in front of a mirror. As she's brushing, Alice hears sharp knocking sounds emanating from her bedroom and becomes suspicious. Slowly, Alice exits the bathroom and searches around her room for the source of the noise. She carefully opens her drawers and looks underneath her bed, but finds nothing out of the ordinary. The rattling noise increases and Alice kneels down on the floor and looks underneath her bureau, where she discovers a garter snake slithering around. Alice screams and jumps back quickly, rattled by the snake's presence. She rushes to her door and screams out for Bill to come help her. As Bill is painting the lifeguard stand, he hears Alice's cries for help, grabs his machete and hastily runs into her cabin. With the machete tightly gripped in his hand, Bill cautiously approaches the bureau and tells Alice to stay quiet. Marcie, Jack, Brenda and Ned eagerly rush into Alice's cabin and stay still, scared but also excited to get a taste of the action. Bill wonders aloud how he's supposed to get the snake to come out, and Alice thoughtlessly demands that he calls for it. Marcie then screams that the snake is wriggling out through the other end, and it slides under the bed as everyone shouts in gleeful panic. The counselors huddle together and check underneath the bed, quietly whispering to each other about where it might've gone. After accidentally knocking over a nightstand, Jack pounces on the bed and irritates the snake into slithering elsewhere. Marcie, Brenda and Ned energetically whack the snake with pillows, and as Bill gets a clear shot of the reptile, he brings his machete down and chops the snake in half. Everyone takes a moment to decompress as they observe the snake's mangled body. Ned comments jokingly that they should eat the snake for dinner, and the girls playfully pummel him with pillows.

In the kitchen, Alice is cleaning the pots and pans. She carries a load of stockpots over to the pantry, and once she opens the door, Ralph is revealed to be standing inside. Alice drops her pots, jumps backward and screams in shock. Ralph steps outside of the closet and proclaims that he's a messenger of God, sent to warn the counselors that they're going to die if they stay at the camp. Alice remains in place and stays quiet, just as Ned and Marcie run over to Alice's aid and stop short upon seeing Ralph. Crazily and sincerely, Ralph insists that Camp Crystal Lake is plagued by a death curse. Alice and Marcie ask Ralph who he is and what he wants, but he simply repeats that God sent him to warn them that they're in grave danger. Ned abrasively commands Ralph to get out of here, and before exiting the cabin, Ralph makes a final dramatic plea for the youngsters to leave while they still can. Ned continues eating his sandwich while Alice and Marcie take a deep breath. Outside the cabin, Ralph approaches his bike as Alice steps outside to watch him go. Before getting on his bike, Ralph turns to Alice and creepily informs her that "you're doomed, you're all doomed!" He then bestrides his bicycle and rides away from the campsite while Alice watches. Alice, who is deeply crept out, slowly walks back inside and closes the door.

In preparation for dinnertime, Jack cooks burgers on the grill, Marcie makes a platter of sandwiches and Brenda concocts a healthy vegetable dish, mixing celery, zucchini, spinach and cucumbers to get the right amount of protein. However, Brenda makes it clear to everyone that she doesn't plan on cooking all summer just because Annie hasn't shown up. Alice tugs on the switch to the light bulb, but it doesn't turn on. Jack suggests that they use the emergency generator because town power lines are supposed to be lousy. Ned jokingly mocks Jack for his macho talk, which faintly annoys Brenda. Jack, Bill and Brenda head over to the generator room while Alice, Ned and Marcie stay in the kitchen and watch over the burgers.

Once Jack, Bill and Brenda arrive at the dilapidated shed, they take notice of how old and run-down the generator appears to be. Jack connects the generator cord to the transfer switch, turns off all the circuit breakers in the transfer switch to the off position and starts up the generator. All the light bulbs suddenly turn on, impressing Brenda and Bill immensely.

At the Voorhees home, Jason vigorously makes his way upstairs and into his childhood bedroom. He abruptly stops and looks around at his former belongings, staring at them with a childlike sense of nostalgia. Jason then stares at himself in a mirror, taking notice of his grotesque appearance which includes a bald, enlarged head, crossed eyes, protruding teeth and several bloated skull deformities. Feeling ashamed of his hideous appearance, Jason pounds the mirror with his fist. Pamela enters Jason's bedroom and presents him with a gift box for his thirty-third birthday. Still retaining some of his childlike wonder, Jason slowly approaches Pamela in curiosity and excitement. He removes the lid from the box and carefully pulls out a goaltender mask, which has a red arrowhead triangle between the eyes and two red triangles on either side of the nose that both point in upward diagonally towards the eye holes. Jason straps the mask onto his head and stares at himself in the cracked mirror, admiring his new look. Pamela stands beside Jason in front of the mirror and sincerely assures him that he looks more beautiful than ever.

At the archery range, Alice, Brenda and Marcie shoot bows and arrows together at the targets. They amicably discuss their individual crushes with whom they hope to share a summer relationship. Marcie talks in great detail about her love life with Jack and believes that she feels ready to finally sacrifice her virginity for him. Brenda reveals that she likes Ned despite his sometimes annoying and immature antics, and can't resist his boyish charm. Alice has harbored romantic thoughts about Bill ever since she met him earlier, but is unsure about what to do about her former relationship in California. As their girl talk progresses, Alice reluctantly admits that she was involved in a brief affair with Steve Christy. Marcie and Brenda relish Alice's confession and giddily beg her to explain in more detail, and Alice simply clarifies that she liked Steve, but broke up with him because he wanted to have sex and she wasn't ready. Marcie asks Alice if she wants to have sex with Bill, and Alice uncomfortably confesses that she's a virgin. Brenda and Marcie crack up and playfully tease Alice for being so pure, then she shrugs off their jokes and concludes their conversation as the three resume shooting bows and arrows.

Jack approaches the girls and asks Marcie to join him down by the pier, and she enthusiastically runs off with him and leaves Alice and Brenda at the archery range. Jack and Marcie hold hands and stroll around the lake while Ned sits by himself on the dock skipping rocks. Feeling bored and lonely, Ned turns around and sees Jack and Marcie passionately holding each other and making out. He watches them for a brief moment and begins to feel jealous, but turns his attention back to the lake and continues chucking stones into the water. Brenda encounters Ned in his lonesome and sits beside him on the dock, where she begins skimming rocks into the lake. Brenda and Ned peacefully talk to each other and agree that there isn't much to do once the sun goes down. Ned grows silent and distant as though something's upsetting him, and Brenda concludes that he secretly has a crush on Marcie. Ned denies Brenda's assertion and confides in her that the reason he jokes around a lot is because he wants people to like him and pay attention to him. Brenda compassionately leans in and kisses Ned on the lips, which provides him with an instant flash of joy. Quietly, Brenda and Ned sit closely next to one another on the dock and stare out into the sky, watching as the sun becomes shielded by clouds.

As storm clouds begin rolling in, Jack and Marcie walk down to one of the other lodges. Marcie wraps her arms around Jack's neck and the two kiss each other. Marcie voices her complaints about Ned's behavior and how he's been acting like a jerk, and Jack jokingly screams out for Ned so Marcie can lecture him. Jack asserts that Ned is going to do whatever he wants, and he accepts that because Ned is their friend. A flash of lightning occurs and it reminds Marcie of a recurring dream that she's had since childhood. The couple sits down on a wood log while Marcie explains her childhood nightmare that's rendered her afraid of thunderstorms since she was a little girl. In the dream, Marcie was trapped in a thunderstorm and the rain sounded like pebbles as it hit the ground. She tried blocking out the sounds with her hands but it didn't work. Suddenly, the rain turned into blood and washed away in little rivers. Jack comforts Marcie and assures her it was only a dream. After hearing this tale, the two are inundated in a thunderstorm and run off to seek shelter in a cabin.

Brenda flees from the lake while Ned decides to stick around outside because he likes thunderstorms. As the sky opens up, Ned wanders around the campground in search of a dry spot where he can avoid getting soaked. He finds a large tree in the middle of the woods and decides to sit underneath of it as the rain begins pouring down. Sitting calmly with his back propped up against the tree, Ned patiently waits for the rain to die down when he suddenly hears a crackling noise. He stands up and calls out for someone nearby, but no one responds. Ned walks out into the rain and gets drenched, but continues to pursue the origin of the noises. He discovers a cabin and contemplates going inside, and after deliberating for a moment, he enters the cabin. Once inside, Ned calls out to see if anyone is there and begins sauntering around the seemingly deserted cottage. During his stroll, Ned briefly spots a figure moving upstairs and proceeds to follow it. He softly asks who is there and what they want, and once Ned reaches the top of the stairs, the hallway is vacant. As Ned stands silently in the middle of the hallway, Jason rushes toward him in a surprise attack and slams Ned against a wall, rendering him unconscious. Jason grips Ned's neck and lifts him up in the air before slitting his throat with a machete. Ned spits up blood as the blood in his open neck wound gushes out all over Jason's Big Mac shirt, and Jason drops him on the floor. After observing Ned's corpse momentarily, Jason picks him up over his shoulder and carries Ned into a bedroom where he hides his body in a bunk bed.

Jack and Marcie come across the same cabin and quickly run inside after getting soaked in the rain. They skittishly run upstairs and find shelter in a bedroom, where Jack lights a candle while Marcie lies down on the bottom of a bunk bed and takes off her panties. After Jack places the candle down on the nightstand, he slowly climbs on top of Marcie and they commence French kissing. As they're making out passionately, Jack unbuttons his shirt and Marcie vigorously removes his undershirt before stripping off her own top.

Inside Comanche Lodge, Bill is playing the Swedish song, "Dear Old Stockholm" on the guitar, Brenda is baking apple pie and Alice is staring out the window and watching the storm hit the lake. She worries that Marcie and Jack are going to get soaked, but Bill assures her that they're probably having sex inside of another cabin. To pass the time, Brenda suggests that they play Strip Monopoly, where instead of paying rent, they pay clothes. Alice and Bill are both intrigued by the idea and gather around the table, where they set up the board game, smoke weed left by Marcie, drink beer and eat Brenda's apple pie.

Cast
Naomi Watts as Pamela Voorhees - Pamela Voorhees (nee Sue) was born circa 1930. As a teenager, Pamela met and married Elias Voorhees, a miner from Ohio. As the couple lived in a trailer near Crystal Lake, Elias would often abuse Pamela verbally and physically for any perceived misdeed, be it real or imagined. In 1946, sixteen-year-old Pamela became aware that she was pregnant with a son. She became convinced that the unborn boy was speaking to her. One day, Elias arrived home from work after a rough day at the mine, and he became tired of Pamela's psychotic ramblings and savagely beat and raped her. Enraged, Pamela went to her husband as he was sleeping and hacked him to pieces with an axe, convinced that this was the only way to protect herself and her son. Pamela then blew up their trailer and dumped Elias' body in the lake. Soon after, Pamela moved into 42 Cars Crash Road after she imagined her son exclaiming how beautiful the house was, despite warnings from the real-estate agent that the building was haunted. Pamela's son, Jason was born on June 13th, 1946 at Wessex County Marshall. Pamela proceeded to raise her son apart from the other children in their new house. In the summer of 1957, Pamela is offered the job as a cook at Camp Crystal Lake by David and Louise Christy. Taking Jason with her, Pamela attempts to keep her son sheltered from the other children, but her attempts are in vain. One day, the other campers harass Jason and chase him onto the dock, where they proceed to throw Jason into the lake where he drowns. After Jason's drowning, Pamela loses touch with reality and spends the next six months in a mental institution. Following her release from the hospital, Pamela is rehired as the cook at Camp Crystal Lake in 1958. Pamela finds that she is unable to stop thinking about Jason's drowning, and each night, she goes to the children's cabin while the occupants are sleeping to ensure that they are safe. On July 4th, Pamela suffers a break down while watching the children sleep and goes into a fit of rage. She starts crying hysterically as she thinks about Jason while watching the children peacefully sleep in their beds, and hears the group of counselors singing at the campfire. Convinced that it is the counselors' fault that her son has died, Pamela gets a hunting knife from the kitchen and follows counselors Barry and Claudette to the barn, where they commence sexual foreplay. Pamela sneaks upstairs and catches the teenagers off guard before murdering them both with the knife. Pamela is never suspected of the crime and Camp Crystal Lake is soon closed. In the years that follow, Pamela continues her vendetta to keep the camp closed. In 1962, Pamela poisons the water and sets several fires around the campground to prevent the camp from opening. In 1979, David and Louise's son, Steve Christy begins fixing up the abandoned camp. Pamela tries to persuade him not to open the campground, but Steve is determined to end the story of the curse of Camp Blood. On June 13th, 1979, what would have been Jason's thirty-third birthday, the camp is almost ready for reopening, and Pamela decides to take matters into her own hands. Taking with her a hunting knife, axe and arrows, Pamela makes it her mission to kill all of the new counselors at Camp Crystal Lake to prevent another child-drowning tragedy and ultimately avenge her son's death.

Taissa Farmiga as Young Pamela Voorhees

Jessica Madsen as Young Pamela Voorhees

Michael Bailey Smith as Jason Voorhees - Jason Voorhees was born in the small town of Crystal Lake on June 13th, 1946 to Elias and Pamela Voorhees. Jason was afflicted with severe facial deformities, Hydrocephalus, enlarged heart and was mentally disabled. Raising Jason on her own, Pamela kept the boy isolated from the community, not letting him attend school and educating him in their home on the outskirts of Crystal Lake. In the summer of 1957, Pamela, unable to get a babysitter for Jason, resorted to bringing him to Camp Crystal Lake where she worked as a cook. While being bullied by the other campers, Jason attempted to escape from his tormentors and ran onto the dock on the lake, but the cruel children caught up to him on the dock and they threw Jason into the lake where he drowned. The counselors were supposed to be watching the children, but instead they were talking and having sexual intercourse in the woods. Decades later, Jason mysteriously resurrects as a full-grown, gruesome monster with protruding teeth and crossed eyes and he makes it his mission to kill anyone who enters "his" lake in an act of vengeance against society for his mistreatment as a child. Physically, Jason is ogre-like, bald with some facial and skull deformities. He wears a Big Mac-styled dark green worker shirt with long sleeves and 2 pockets (the left one is a buttoned flap pocket while the right one is a simple buttoned patch pocket), a white sweatshirt underneath, a black leather belt, silvery-grey cargo work pants, black security boots/shoes and his trademark hockey mask with the 3 Detroit Red Wings signs. While Jason is able to murder his victims using a variety of methods such as strangling with his bare hands, ripping someone apart or killing with whatever is handy, his favorite weapon is his machete which he uses for stabbing, gutting or slashing throats. Jason is able to survive any kind of injury, can be brought back to life, and possesses a unique ability to regenerate any lost and damaged tissue. Jason is shown to be extremely intelligent and high-functioning, while possessing some tactical sense and strategic planning despite his hydrocephalic deformities. Jason can seemingly appear near his victims through means of walking, and he can easily slip in and out of areas undetected. Jason can use anything at his disposal as a weapon, he can create improvised weapons, and instantly use them effectively. He needs only to pick up a weapon before he instantly becomes proficient in it.

Deaths
Elias Voorhees - While Elias is sleeping in his bed after beating his wife and getting drunk off of multiple bottles of liquor, Pamela sneaks into his room wielding an axe. Elias mumbles in his sleep and seems to be fully unconscious from all the booze. Pamela stands above Elias' bed looking at him with sorrow and regret, and she lifts her axe above her head and swings down, chopping off Elias' head. Elias' head rolls on the floor and his body remains in bed. Pamela, in a rageful state, proceeds to hack Elias to pieces with her axe until his entire body is reduced to severed parts scattered in blood all over his bed.

Jason Voorhees - While Jason and the other campers are outside enjoying the beautiful day on the campground, the counselors who are supposed to be watching the children are having sex in the woods or in the cabins. Knowing they're not being watched, the kids take the opportunity to harass Jason. Jason is sitting on the field by himself sniffing the fresh flowers and holding insects in his hand to observe them. The other campers, led by Gabriel, gather around Jason and taunt him for his deformities and lack of social skills. Gabriel pours dirt on Jason's head and then places a sack over Jason's face. Jason panics and stands up before taking the sack off of his head and runs away from his tormentors. The other kids laugh and run after Jason together, and Jason whimpers while running to the dock on the lake. Once Jason arrives on the dock, he freezes because he's worried he'll fall in the lake. The group of campers catch up to Jason and gather around him. Jason stands helplessly and cries. The campers continue to taunt him and laugh, and some of the kids walk behind Jason and the others stand in front of him. Together, Gabe and the campers grab onto Jason and throw him into the lake. Jason screams for help and struggles to keep himself afloat in the water. The campers laugh and run away back to the campground, leaving Jason alone in the water.

Barry Jackson - During a 4th of July sing-along at Camp Crystal Lake, Barry convinces Claudette to leave the other counselors and go upstairs with him to have sexual intercourse. Claudette is reluctant to leave the others thinking they will get caught, but Barry insists because he is horny and says no one will discover that they're gone. Claudette gives in to Barry's needs and the two run upstairs while avoiding everyone else. Barry and Claudette go into one of the rooms upstairs and begin to undress themselves and make out. While the two are on top of one another kissing, Pamela begins to make her way upstairs. As they are making out, Claudette tells Barry that she hears someone coming up the stairs, but Barry doesn't take her warning seriously and continues to hold onto and kiss Claudette. Claudette ignores her suspicion and proceeds to kiss Barry. During their long makeout, Pamela arrives upstairs and confronts the couple. Barry and Claudette quickly let go of one another and try to put their clothes on as fast as possible. Pamela walks over to Barry and he attempts to sweet talk her into thinking they weren't doing anything wrong. Pamela then stabs Barry in the stomach with her hunting knife.

Claudette bangs on the doors begging for someone to help her, but no one is around to hear her. Finally, she finds a closet that is unlocked and hides inside of there. Claudette attempts to hold back her tears and shakes uncontrollably from fear. She slowly opens the door just slightly, and Pamela is seemingly not around. Claudette closes the door and remains in the closet quietly. Suddenly, Pamela stabs Claudette in the stomach with the hunting knife through the closet door, leaving Claudette to bleed profusely. She grabs onto her stomach with both hands and falls out of the closet and onto the floor. Pamela stands above Claudette while wielding her knife and Claudette begs her not to hurt her. She spits up blood and cries in agony, while Pamela blames her for not watching her son when he was being bullied, and therefore resulted in his death. Claudette continuously sobs and apologizes to Pamela for not watching after her son, and was instead having sex with Barry. As she berates the helpless counselor, Pamela kneels down and uses her hunting knife to cut open Claudette's shirt, exposing one of her breasts. Pamela tells Claudette she forgives her, but that the decision to let Claudette live is not up to her. Pamela hallucinates that her 11 year old son, Jason is standing by her side. She asks Jason what she should do with Claudette, and Jason whispers in her ear. Pamela tells Claudette the answer is to kill her, and she slashes Claudette across the throat with her hunting knife, leaving her to choke on her own blood while she tightly clutches her throat.

John Farrin - While John is in a community bathroom urinating, Pamela sneaks in and walks over to John's stall. She knocks on the door and John assumes she's waiting to use the stall, so he tells her it's taken. Pamela opens the door and frightens John, who is surprised upon learning it's a woman knocking. Pamela begins to flirt with John and tells him bathrooms are her favorite spot to hook up. John is confused yet strangely turned on and flirts back with Pamela. Pamela slowly leans forward and kisses John, and he returns the favor. While the two are kissing, Pamela stabs John in the groin with her hunting knife, causing him to scream in pain. John clutches his bleeding groin and falls onto his knees before slowly collapsing on the floor.

Debbie - While Debbie is inside the community bathroom urinating in a stall, she overhears John being murdered in one of the other stalls. Debbie begins to panic and cry, fearing Pamela will come after her. Debbie peeks outside her door through the crack and sees Pamela covered in blood. She keeps quiet and stands still while covering her mouth in shock. Pamela leaves the bathroom and Debbie decides to escape through the window just to be safe. She stands on the toilet and lifts herself up to the window, opens it and crawls through. Suddenly, Pamela breaks the stall door down and grabs Debbie's arm while she's climbing out the window. Debbie screams for help and holds onto the window, but Pamela overpowers her and throws Debbie down where she hits her head on the toilet and falls on the floor. Debbie's head starts gushing blood and she dies from blunt force trauma.

Annie Phillips - While Annie is hitchhiking around the streets of Crystal Lake, Pamela drives by in her Jeep and picks up Annie. Annie unloads her pack for the summer and gets inside the car, and Pamela drives off. Annie tells her to take her to Camp Crystal Lake and begins to tell Pamela about how excited she is to be cooking for kids all summer. During the drive, Pamela shifts her car into low, pops the clutch and floors it, making Annie nervous and she asks her to slow down. Pamela refuses to listen to Annie and tells her she won't let the camp reopen because it will only lead to more deaths. Annie jumps out of the speeding vehicle and falls on the street, injuring her leg. Annie painfully crawls across the street while pleading for help. Pamela gets out of her car and walks over to the wounded Annie, and Annie begs for her life. Pamela kicks Annie in the wounded leg and in the stomach, causing her to scream in agony. Pamela then kneels down and punches Annie in the face repeatedly, accusing her of being just as neglectful of a counselor as all are. Annie manages to pick herself up and limps into the woods, where she runs into a full-grown unmasked Jason. She falls on the ground and begs Jason not to harm her, and Jason picks Annie up by her throat and strangles her. Annie gasps for air and holds onto Jason's arm as he holds her up in the air, and Jason snaps Annie's neck before throwing her on the ground.

Ned Rubenstein - While Ned is hanging around the campground, it begins to rain but he doesn't feel like going inside with the others yet. He walks around the woods looking for a dry spot to stand by, and comes across a tree to sit underneath of. While Ned sits below the tree waiting for the rain to die down, he hears a crackling noise. He stands up and calls out to see if someone is out there. No one responds but the noise seems to be coming from another cabin. Ned is confused but decides to explore where the noise is coming from. He walks into the cabin and asks if anyone is inside. Ned wanders around and sees a figure move upstairs. His curiosity gets the best of him and Ned follows the figure upstairs, only to find the stranger is gone. Jason then runs into Ned and slams him against a wall, knocking him unconscious. Jason picks Ned up by his neck and slashes his throat with a machete, making Ned spit up blood before Jason drops him on the floor. Jason then picks Ned back up and brings him into a bedroom where he places Ned on a bed.

Brenda Jones - Sitting quietly in her bed while reading a book, Brenda suddenly hears a cry coming from a child outside. Due to the excessive rain, Brenda is reluctant to go outside because she's warm and cozy in her nightdress. The child-like cry increases and Brenda becomes worried. She gets out of bed and stares out of the window to see if anyone is outside looking for help. Brenda then gets ahold of a flashlight and walks outside of her cabin and calls out for the child in trouble. No one responds to Brenda and she decides to investigate further, getting soaked in the rain. Brenda continues to call out for the child and offers to help, when suddenly the lights all around the campground turn on. Brenda becomes blinded by the light and backs up slowly. While backing up, Jason appears behind Brenda and strangles her with a roll of rope. Jason then carries Brenda's body over to the archery range where he uses the rope he strangled her with to tie her to a wooden board.

Jack Burrell - After Jack and Marcie finish having sex in their cabin, Jack decides to take a shower. He goes into the bathroom, takes off his clothes and steps into the steamy shower. Jack washes up while Marcie is lying in bed reading a magazine. After Jack gets out of the shower, he wraps a towel around his waist and walks over to the mirror to brush his hair. He begins to admire the way he looks and stares at himself for a brief moment. Since steam has covered the bathroom, Jack has to scrub the mirror off. As he wipes the mirror clean of the fog, Jason appears standing behind him and he smashes Jack's head against the mirror, shattering the glass and causing Jack to collapse onto the floor. While Jack lays barely conscious on the floor, Jason stabs him repeatedly in the back with a glass shard. Jason then turns Jack over on his back and stabs him in the stomach with the glass shard, before dragging the shard up through Jack's sternum and taking out his intestines and other internal organs.

Marcie Stanler - After Jason kills Jack, he grabs one of the shards from the mirror that he broke with Jack's head and exits the bathroom. Marcie gets out of her bed and walks over to the bathroom to find Jack. She walks inside the bathroom and discovers Jack lying dead on the floor surrounded by blood and glass, and screams. Marcie panics and runs out of the cabin and into the rain. While she is running around the campground screaming for help, Jason jumps out from behind a tree and stabs Marcie in the left side of her stomach with an axe, causing her to fall on the ground. As she lays bleeding and sobbing in pain, Jason grabs the handle of the axe and drags Marcie along the street as she screams in agony. Later inside a cabin, Alice finds Marcie tied down on the floor bleeding and barely conscious. Alice tries to untie her and holds Marcie in her arms, and Marcie uses her remaining strength to beg Alice to leave. Alice tells Marcie she's going to get her help, and Marcie, who can barely speak, quietly informs Alice that "they're watching us." Alice turns around and sees Jason and Pamela standing nearby. Pamela orders Jason to "set her free", and Jason stabs Marcie in the forehead with the axe.

Steve Christy - While Steve is driving around the campground, he sees Pamela walking up the road and calls out for her. Steve asks Pamela what she's doing out in the rain all by herself, and she vaguely tells him she's fine. Steve offers Pamela a ride and she declines, so Steve gets out of his car and comforts Pamela, telling her he can get her some help. Pamela questions Steve as to why he opened up the camp, and he insists that she be treated. Pamela quickly pulls her blade out and stabs Steve in the stomach with the hunting knife. Steve looks at Pamela in shock as blood begins to pour out of his stomach and she taunts him saying none of this would have happened if he hadn't opened the camp.

Bill Brown - While Bill and Alice are waiting by themselves inside the cabin, Bill decides to go find the others. Alice asks Bill to stay with her because she doesn't want to be alone in a rainstorm, but he assures her that he'll be back very shortly. Bill kisses Alice goodbye, puts on a raincoat and goes outside with a flashlight to see where everyone is. He searches through the woods and doesn't find sight of anybody, which makes him deeply suspicious. Bill turns around and is shocked to see Alice behind him, as she wanted to surprise him and help him find the others. Bill and Alice hold hands and search around together. They come across a mysterious cabin they haven't seen before and decide to enter. While exploring the cabin, Alice finds a bloody axe on the floor and demands they leave. As Bill agrees that it's time to go, Jason sneaks up behind him and pulls Bill into another room. Jason holds Bill by his mouth so he can't alert Alice, and Jason slashes Bill's throat with his machete. Jason then impales Bill through the back, chest and stomach with arrows and pincushions his body against the door.

Jack Tierney - Alice runs in the middle of the road and is greeted by Sergeant Tierney in his police car. Jack invites Alice in, and she is hysterical. She tells him her boyfriend was just murdered and a deformed maniac is after her, and Alice breaks down crying in Jack's arms. Jack assures her that he'll keep her safe and find the person responsible. He drives Alice to the police station and she has calmed down during the ride there. During the drive, one of the wheels on Jack's car flattens out, leaving the two stranded. Alice begs Jack not to get out of the car, but he does so anyway and looks at his tire. While Jack is kneeling on the ground and observing his tire, Jason stabs him in the back with an axe. Jack attempts to crawl away as he screams in pain, and Jason proceeds to stab Jack repeatedly in the back with the axe.

Pamela Voorhees - While Alice and Pamela are fighting, Alice manages to run into the back of the cabin but Pamela chases after her with a machete. Pamela yells at Alice and tells her that she must be punished for her sins, to which Alice replies that she hasn't done anything wrong and that Pamela is the sinner for turning her son into a monster. Jason stands near the two and listens as they argue. Pamela tells Alice that everything she is doing she is doing for the sake of her beloved son, who was the only thing in the world she cared about. Alice communicates with Pamela, telling her that she has brought her son back to the world as a vengeful monster for her own self pity, and that this isn't what Jason really wants. Pamela begins to sob as she knows Alice is right. Alice offers to help Pamela and promises her that all this anger can end if she lets go and moves on. Pamela is silent for a bit and wipes her tears away before walking up to Alice. Pamela apologizes for her actions and drops the machete on the ground, and Alice sympathizes with her. However, Pamela lunges toward Alice and pushes her onto the ground where she leans above Alice and chokes her with her bare hands. Alice gasps for air as she tries to pull Pamela's hands off of her neck, and Pamela angrily tells Alice that she'll never forgive the world for taking away her only son. As Alice becomes weaker and loses more oxygen, she uses her fainting breath to tell Pamela that she and her son can both rot in Hell. Alice then grabs the machete on the ground next to her and uses the blade to slash Pamela across the throat. Pamela stares off in shock and her head slowly loosens from her neck and falls off, landing on Alice. Pamela's body then falls over onto the ground.
