Hamster

Plot hole: When Jason is going next door to chase after Trish, he pulls Jimbo's body down from the doorway and begins walking towards Trish's cabin. He is seen walking by himself.

Revealing mistake: When Trish and her mom are jogging, a bush in front of them moves before they run by it, caused by the cameraman brushing it as he walked backwards. (00:14:10)

Revealing mistake: Near the end when Jason throws the hammer at the girl, it sticks to the damaged part of the wall after it hits. But it's just against the wood with the flat top, there's nothing to hold the hammer there and it's only hit the wood on the other side of the wall. They probably used a magnet to attract and keep it there for safety reasons. (01:15:00)

Continuity mistake: Nurse Morgan's name tag is on the opposite side to the pocket with the pen in it, on her white nurse dress. Yet when Jason stabs Nurse Morgan, her name tag is right next to the pocket. (00:12:00)

Hamster

Revealing mistake: When Trish jumps out through the window, rolls off the deck, and lands on the ground below, she obviously lands on a mat or some other protective device covered to look like mud. It jiggles like jelly in a perfect square when she lands on it. (01:18:15)

Samantha: Come on, Sara. Strip and dip.
Sara: Sam, I said no.
Samantha: Well then, I'm gonna go under and stay under until you do.
