When the girl goes skinny-dipping you see her leaving her purse and clothes on the pier. When it cuts they have suddenly disappeared. See more...

Trivia

The director, Ronny Yu, was reluctant to get involved with this movie as he knew nothing of Freddy or Jason, but that is exactly what New Line wanted: somebody with a fresh look and fresh ideas for the legendary franchises. See more...

In the scene where Lorie is dreaming, and where she appears in front of her house towards the end, if you play it frame by frame, you can see some extra leaves appear when Lorie pops into the frame. [If it involves slowing the film down in anyway it does not count.]

Near the middle, when Jason is rampaging through the cornfield party, a guy standing by the back of a truck with a keg in it starts to throw drinks on him. Jason swings but the guy appears to get out of the way and Jason slashes the keg. Even though it looks like Jason misses him, you see the guy with a huge slash on his chest with blood spurting out. [Jason does not miss. He cuts through the guy, hitting the keg behind him.]

When Jason throws his flaming machete into the fat guy's neck at the party, the way the machete is thrown is impossible. It flies straight, as though it were shot out of a gun. When Jason throws the machete, it should be spinning. [We don't ever see how Jason throws the machete. The only shot that we see is the fat guy running, and then the machete impaling him. Obviously rather than throwing the machete like a throwing knife, he threw it like a spear.]
Edit
Originally fan favourite Kane Hodder was going to reprise the role of Jason but, to much disappointment, the director felt he was too short and didn't have the right type of eyes for the more sympathetic character Jason eventually becomes in this film. Ironically even long standing Friday the 13th fans eventually admitted they thought replacement Ken Krizinger played the role better than Hodder. [While the reason Hodder didn't get to reprise his role is correct, the rest is pure speculation. I for one am a long standing F13 fan who never thought Ken did a better job then Kane.nor have I personally heard or read anything about any other fans feeling that way.]
Edit
In the end scene (spoiler) Freddy stabs BOTH of Jason's eyes, obviously blinding him. Yet throughout the rest of the fight Jason knows accurately where Freddy is, even in the final end where he uses his glove against him. Also, when he sinks away you see one eye staring up as he dies. [The two characters are essentially magical. I wouldn't think a little fast healing would be a problem.]

When the kid gets the flaming machete through him at the party, some of the blood he spits lands on the camera at the lower right corner. [This is not a mistake but a film technique. Lots of films include the camera being covered in blood to add a gory effect.]
Edit Time
When Jason impales the skinny-dipping girl against the tree, the camera shows his machete going straight through the tree and protruding out the other side a few inches. This is impossible, being as the tree seems to be about 3 feet wide. [This segment is a dream and as such anything is possible.]
Edit Corrected by MasterOfAll Time
When Lori finds her dead boyfriend in the bed, his eyes dart to his right. [First of all, Gibb finds her boyfriend dead in the bed, not Lori. Second, I have just watched this scene several times and his eyes do not move at all.]

In the scene where Jason is on fire at the rave, one kid is throwing cups of beer on him while he is on fire. Jason then swings his machete at the kid who dodges it, instead hitting the keg which sprays the fire out. Jason then turns towards the camera after the fire is out. You then see the same kid in the background shaking and gurgling as though he was cut. [Jason does hit the kid. The machete goes through the kid and hits the keg.]
Edit
In the scene where Lori wakes up in the police station and follows the dropping blood, she turns a corner because she hears a little crying. Right after she turns the corner, the cameras show office windows. You can see someone sitting down and a cameraman on his knees. [I just watched this scene 5 times in a row and there is absolutely no cameraman or person other than the little girl]

In "Jason Goes to Hell", it is stated that all the cabins at Camp Crystal Lake were torn down. Yet in this movie we see many of them, and Freddy and Jason even fight in one. [This movie ignores some of the earlier movies. Therefore they can add anything to this movie they want.]

In the corn scene, Jason is set on fire, and then takes out his machete and the sheath is still on, but then its gone after the machete is thrown into the air. [After Jason pulls out his machete, there are several shots where he is not shown and the camera is on the kid he is chasing. He had plenty of time and opportunity to remove the sheath.]
Edit Corrected by Twotall
When the kid wakes up and his father is sitting beside him with his neck chopped on the porch of his house, the kid hears a noise in the bushes. As he walks towards them, we get a shot of the bushes moving - if you look to the right of the bushes, the shadow of someone shaking them is visible. [First of all, Blake hears the noise in the bushes in his dream, before he wakes up to find his father dead. Secondly, why shouldn't there be a shadow? There is actually someone there, namely Freddy. It's a bit sloppy of him to expose even as much as a shadow, but it is possible, espescially seeing how eager and concentrated he is on scaring and killing Blake.]

In the scene where Linderman, Kia, Will, Detective Stubbs, and Freeburg are sitting at a table discussing how to destory Freddy and Jason, there is a Sprite bottle on the table. The cap to the bottle is seen right next to it, but as the shots change angles, the cap is about 6 inches away from the bottle, and then back to being right next to it again. [This never happens. Even so, there are several shots not showing Will and the Sprite bottle at all. He could have had several sips from the bottle placing it close/near the cap without us noticing it at all.]
Edit Corrected by Mortug Time
In the final fight, when Freddy is knocked off the construction site and is hanging by his foot, in one shot his hat has fallen off his head, but when the camera changes back to him when hes swinging his hat is back on his head. [His hat never reappears on his head, while he's hanging there.]
Edit Corrected by Mortug
If you watch the final battle on the dock (I think it happens other times in the movie) Freddy's shirt comes up over his back revealing no burns. It's stated many times in all the Nightmare on Elm Street films (and this one) that Freddy's entire body was burned badly. [I watched it over and over, but Freddy's shirt never flies up revealing no burns.]
Edit
This is the first movie where Jason speaks. Just after he throws the table and walks towards Freddy, you can hear Jason whisper the word "die" at least four times as he walks. [After a close listen, I think that you will find that it is part of the song that is just about to play.]
Edit
After Freddy shoots the gas tanks at Jason, there's a shot of Jason flying through the air, landing and getting up. The next shot is of Freddy on top of the scaffolds where he says, "Hey A**hole. Up here." Now there's no way Freddy could have gotten from behind where the gas tanks were to the top of the scaffolds in that short a time. And he's in the real world so he doesn't have all of his special abilities. [In the real world, Freddy does in fact still have some powers. As already shown, he can withstand a lot of pain and as proven in "Freddy's Dead", he can defy gravity and climb up walls. Who's to say he can't run faster than a mortal?]
Edit
Mark is trapped in his dream and at the window yelling for help, then he is slashed across the face by an invisible Freddy. Will and Lori look across the room, and in the mirror they see the reflection of "Freddy's Back" burned into a dead Mark's skin. Freddy would have had to have written the words backwards, in order for them to see it correctly. [Well Freddy knew they would see it in the mirror and then wrote in a way so they can see it in the mirror.]
Edit
When the guy from the party at the start wakes up and finds his dad sitting next to him, he taps his shoulder and his head jumps right off where Jason has cut it. There's no way it would jump up, it would just tip forwards. [It does not jump up in the air. Blake tapped his father's head and it fell sideways into Blake's arms.]
