Continuity mistake: There is shot of the car turning hard to the right that doesn't belong here. It's part the upcoming shot when Megan hooks the wheel and skids to a stop in front of her father. You can see the red light from her fathers police car on the front end and side as it turns. She is not on Cunningham road yet. Also, the driver of the car appears to be a man with a moustache wearing a blonde wig. (00:51:25)

Continuity mistake: After Tommy begins reading the book the next shot of Jason walking doesn't belong there. It is part of shot from later in the movie after Sheriff Garris shoots Jason in the head. The bullet wound and the blood from the head crush kill are visible on the mask. (00:43:13)

FreDroDaGod

Continuity mistake: When the caretaker takes a drink there is still liquor in the bottle when pulls it away from his lips. You can hear it slosh around In the bottle. The next closeup shot shows the bottle is empty before he puts it in his mouth and then pretends to swallow. (00:30:37)

FreDroDaGod

Continuity mistake: When Megan talks to the girls there are multiple girls in this scene who are never seen again in the movie. There are 2 black girls and at least 3 white girls who are never seen again. Also, the main little girl from the later parts of the movie is nowhere to be seen in this shot. (00:27:26)

Continuity mistake: Colone has a blue pen in his left shirt pocket. The pen is there during the car ride and throughout the chase scene but disappears when he draws his gun. Later on the blue pen is back in his pocket when Colone says "Happy Friday the 13th". (00:22:35 - 00:45:48)

Continuity mistake: Sissy put 2 ketchup bottles and 1 mustard on the counter top. When she turns to listen to Megan she bumps one bottle knocking over both ketchup bottles. As Megan finishes her story she points to the arriving bus full of kids you can see both bottles are back upright and the second ketchup bottle has moved behind the mustard. (00:19:10 - 00:19:45)

FreDroDaGod

Continuity mistake: Hawes' heart is missing from where it should be beside the grave. When Jason heart punched Hawes he dropped the heart as Hawes fell back into the grave. As Jason turns he can be heard stomping on the heart. The heart may be squashed but it should be there and the caretaker should have spotted it. The broken shovel and gas can are also nowhere to be seen. (00:17:58)

FreDroDaGod

Continuity mistake: The tire tracks in the mud left by the VW go past where Jason is standing in the middle of the road even though Jason hasn't moved. The shots looking at the car from behind Jason show no tracks in the mud at all. (00:13:08)

FreDroDaGod

Continuity mistake: The headlights from the cop cars that were right on her tail are now gone and the road behind the car is dark when she hooks the right on Cunningham Rd. In one second the cops have fallen so far back it takes them more than ten seconds before they pull into frame. (00:51:52)

FreDroDaGod

Continuity mistake: In this scene where Jason grabs Sissy he grabs her by her shoulders, but the next shot when he pulls her out the window his left hand is on her neck and his right hand is between her legs. This was the only way Jason could pull her through the window without her lower body slamming into the window frame. (00:49:00)

FreDroDaGod

Continuity mistake: The position of the Lemon Brus can beside Sissy's bed changes. In the first shot it's turned around backwards facing the box behind it so you can only read Lemo. In the next shot where Sissy grabs the can the label is facing the camera and you can read the entire label Lemon Lime Brus. (00:46:38)

FreDroDaGod

Continuity mistake: Jason cut the phone line and leaves a deep gouge in the post but in the following shot the line is intact and the post has no gouge in it. (00:46:16)

FreDroDaGod

Continuity mistake: When Jason looks at the camp and you can see the Camp Forest Green sign there is smoke coming out of the chimney of the cabin with the welcome sign. In the next shot where Jason walks into the camp there is no smoke coming from the chimney. Also, there is a change in the lighting visible by looking at the shadows created by the bushes on the left. (00:44:58)

FreDroDaGod

Continuity mistake: The position of the blinds behind Cort changes. It's all the way down at first but the next shot the blinds are rolled halfway up. (00:40:27)

FreDroDaGod

Continuity mistake: In the RV bathroom the curtain rod they knock down in the struggle could not have possibly been there when Jason dragged her into the bathroom. The rod is lower than the top of the door and would have been knocked down. It's obviously not there when Jason jumps out. (00:39:50)

FreDroDaGod

Continuity mistake: Jason's suit is a little dirty but not damaged at all. This is a result of this scene being added months after filming had wrapped. (00:31:16)

FreDroDaGod

Continuity mistake: Jason has been shown to be right-handed but in this scene he has the machete in his left hand. The dart pouch is barely visible and the machete holster is not. In the shot of his head the axe wound is missing. This is all because the film has been flipped - it's a mirror image of a previous shot of Jason walking. (00:28:43)

FreDroDaGod

Continuity mistake: In the second row the second girl from the right has a pink bag and doll in her lap. The next shot both are gone. (00:27:25)
