Corrected entry: If there have been multiple killings at Camp Crystal Lake and everyone, even the police, knew about it wouldn't they have closed it down for good by now?

Correction: The camp was closed down after the events of the first film. At one point in the second film, a character looks at a sign for Camp Crystal Lake and says "this place is on the same lake we're gonna be." In another correction someone mentions that Jason prowls for his victims all over the lake, which is a valid point. The only area that's closed is the camp itself, not the entire lake and town, which simply can't be closed down for good.
Also, if you check out the other side of the lake during the scene in the second movie where they go swimming right before Jeff and Sandra sneak away you can see buildings that could be other camps or lake homes owned by people like Chris' parents. Jason had these areas to find his victims, not just the camp from the first movie. Also, the officer that brings back Jeff and Sandra makes the statement that the camp was condemned.

Continuity mistake: When Jason swings the machete to kill Andy, he swings vertically, which would have cut him between the legs down to his head, as he was walking on his hands. Later when Andy is shown, he is cut horizontally at the waist. (01:00:15)

Suggested correction: This is wrong. It might look it at first, but if you pause it, he's cut vertically and his legs are simply stretched to be able to put the feet by his head. The cut reached just past his abdomen, so Jason spread Andy's legs to fit on the rafter, giving the illusion that he was cut in half horizontally.
Hogwash. I saw this scene and Andy was cut vertically, not horizontally. There is no illusion. Everything is too obvious.
That's what I said, vertically. The shot is quick, which is why some people think he's cut horizontally.

Question: How exactly did Jason kill Andy? In other words, how did Andy end up the way he did?
Answer: Jason chops Andy in half with his trusty machete (his trademark weapon of choice). However from the way the kill was shot it looks as though Jason whacks Andy in the crotch from above (as Andy was walking on his hands at the time of his murder) so how he ended up in half at the waist is anyone's guess.
He wasn't cut in half at the waist. Look very carefully and you'll see that he was cut vertically, then his legs pulled it apart to rest his feet by his head.

Corrected entry: How is Ali still alive at the end of the movie? Earlier in the film we see Jason chop him. And if he wasn't killed immediately, why was he in the barn the whole time? Makes no sense at all.
Correction: He didn't get hacked he got knocked unconscious with a wrench, that's why he got that wound on his head.
It wasn't a hammer. It's a knife. You can plainly see Jason chop his head and neck area 4 times. And since when does Jason just knock someone out? All through the series he kills people brutally.
Take a closer look. It's definitely not a knife, looks more like a wrench. Also, in the previous film, he fights with Paul, goes after Ginny, then Paul comes to the rescue. At this point in the series, Jason made mistakes and didn't always kill someone outright when he attacked. Shelly's death is a good example of that since he managed to make it to the house from the barn after Jason cut his throat. Perhaps he got more brutal as the series went on to be sure that anyone he attacked was dead.

Correction: The camp is closed down in Part 3 and is not reopened until Part 6 when they have renamed the area Lake Forest Green and Jason is in the ground buried. In this movie, the killings don't take place at the camp but at a house on Crystal Lake owned by Chris's parents. Throughout the series, Jason stalks the entire Crystal Lake area and not just the famous campgrounds. So, even if the camp is closed, Jason still has the rest of the area around the lake to look for victims. Can the police close that down too?
