123. Ext. The Casino Night Club – NIGHT CHRIS and ZERNER both exit the building. CHRIS seems to be cold as she leaves the club. ZERNER walks over to his station wagon. ZERNER: Are you coming? CHRIS rolls her eyes at him. CHRIS: The moment I get home I’m leaving. I’ve already had the kids pack up our things. ZERNER: Whatever. ZERNER opens the door without having to unlock it. CHRIS: You left the car unlocked? ZERNER: I guess so, you gonna yell at me? ZERNER gets in the car and sits down; CHRIS reluctantly gets in the passenger’s side. Cut to 124. Int. Zerner’s Station Wagon – NIGHT ZERNER puts the keys in the ignition and turns the car on. It makes a loud noise when starting up. Quickly from the behind the seat ELIAS springs up with his pistol. He holds it to ZERNER’S neck threatening. CHRIS is about to scream. ELIAS: Scream and I slit his throat. ZERNER gulps. ZERNER: What do you want? ELIAS: A ride.
To where?
To Camp Crystal Lake. ZERNER: Why?
You’re not in the position to ask questions right now. Drive or bleed, your choice.
That’s good, that’s real good. CHRIS looks at ZERNER as ELIAS pulls the gun away from his head. ZERNER drives down the road. Cut to 125. Int. Camp Crystal Lake Dining Hall – NIGHT The DISC JOCKEY is inside the dining hall, unpacking his equipment. His stereo and large equipment are all still plugged into the wall. CHARLES walks up to him. CHARLES: Are you almost done here? DISC JOCKEY: Yes I am. All the kids gone? CHARLES: It appears that way. The officer outside is taking one final look. The DISC JOCKEY continues packing up but notices that CHARLES doesn’t walk away. DISC JOCKEY: Is there something you want? CHARLES: No, no, I’ll just be going now. Have a nice night. The DISC JOCKEY watches as CHARLES exits the room. Once he is out the DISC JOCKEY takes out a joint and a lighter. He lights the joint and smokes it. DISC JOCKEY: God high school dances make you want to get high. The DISC JOCKEY blows out smoke from his mouth and his nostrils. From behind him, JASON raises his machete in the air. The DISC JOCKEY puts the joint back in his mouth to smoke. JASON thrusts the machete down into the DISC JOCKEY’S back. The machete slides all the way through his body and slams into the control equipment in front of the DISC JOCKEY. The DISC JOCKEY begins shaking as electricity shoots out from the equipment, and the lights begin dimming. The joint drops from the DISC JOCKEY’S mouth onto the equipment, creating a small flame in the electricity. The flame then grows into a giant fire, and the lights suddenly go out, as does the electricity. Cut to 126. Ext. Camp Crystal Lake – NIGHT CHARLES is walking to his car when he notices that the lights are all out inside the building, and streetlamps lighting the exterior of Camp Crystal Lake go out as well. Cut to 127. Int. Camp Crystal Lake Dining Hall – NIGHT The DISC JOCKEY’S fried body lies on the floor equipment. Cut to 128. Ext. Camp Crystal Lake – NIGHT CHARLES stops walking when the lights are all out. He starts back towards the dining hall, concerned looking. CHARLES notices the police car parked near the dining hall. He runs over to it. CHARLES sees two people inside the car, sitting quietly. He walks around to the passenger’s seat, which is next the building wall and looks in. CHARLES looks through the window of the car to see the OFFICER in the driver’s seat with his throat slit and JASON in the passenger’s seat, staring straight ahead. JASON quickly turns his head towards CHARLES and slams the door open. CHALRES gets knocked to the ground. CHARLES begins crawling on the ground to get away from JASON but JASON catches him and picks him up by the throat. JASON lifts him from the ground and slams him against the wall. JASON then takes him machete in the other hand and stabs CHARLES with it right in the gut. CHARLES screams in pain as JASON drags the machete down his gut, cutting him wide open. Cut to 129. Ext. The Road – NIGHT KJ and ANNIE are now jogging at a fairly fast pace down the road towards Camp Crystal Lake. VIKKI comes to a stop to catch her breath, and KJ stops with her. VIKKI: Oh, why did I get such a tight dress? I feel like I can’t breathe. KJ: We can stop for a second. VIKKI: That would be great, thanks. VIKKI leans over to catch her breath as KJ approaches her. KJ hesitates to touch her back, but does so anyway. He pats her to help her breath. KJ: How do you feel? VIKKI stands up straight. VIKKI: Like some stupid girl in a horror movie who’s running around the woods wearing a skin tight dress. How about you? KJ: I can’t say the same about me, but I can say that I feel okay to start up again. VIKKI and KJ begin to walk down the street when TRAVIS jumps out at them from the bushes. VIKKI jumps to KJ, screaming. TRAVIS notices how she’s touching him. TRAVIS: Well, you don’t waste much time, now do you Vic. VIKKI looks at TRAVIS, unpleased. VIKKI: What do you want? TRAVIS: I came to find you. The dance is over. VIKKI: But it’s not even eleven o’clock. TRAVIS: Apparently something happened and everyone had to leave. I’ve been looking all over for you. VIKKI: Why? I want nothing to do with you. TRAVIS glares at KJ. TRAVIS: Who’s the substitute? KJ: What?
Yeah, that’s right. I cheated on her so now she has to cheat on me.
It’s not like that Travis. I didn’t cheat on you. KJ: Hey buddy I think you better leave. TRAVIS: Or else what? KJ: What, you think that because you play football you’re all tough. I’m from Boston, I could kick your Crystal Lake ass any day. And since its Friday the 13th, I think your luck just ran out. TRAVIS: Is that a threat? VIKKI steps in the middle. VIKKI: Okay, let’s try to refrain from fighting. Let’s find everyone else and go back. TRAVIS: I can’t find anyone. The limo’s gone too. There’s a rustle in the bushes. VIKKI, TRAVIS, and KJ all turn to see what it was. TRAVIS: Who’s there? There’s no answer, but another rustle. TRAVIS looks to KJ. TRAVIS: Hey tough ass Boston boy, go see what it is. KJ: What!
I’ll see what it is.
Shit, this really is an unlucky Friday the 13th. VIKKI walks back to TRAVIS and KJ, while GABBY exits the bushes. GABBY: Just thought I’d follow Travis, since I don’t have a ride home. VIKKI: I wonder why. TRAVIS: So you snuck through the bushes. GABBY: You always did like to play hide and seek when having sex, didn’t you. VIKKI begins to walk away. KJ follows her. VIKKI: I can’t take this. KJ: Vikki, wait. TRAVIS steps in his way. TRAVIS: Don’t even think about it, you don’t even know her. KJ: And you only know how to hurt her. GABBY: Who cares about her? Let’s see, two guys and a girl. How about you two fight over me or we could have a really hot three way. I’ll let you guys choose. TRAVIS ignores her and runs after VIKKI. KJ begins to follow but GABBY steps in his way. GABBY: Forget Travis, who are you? KJ: Not at all interested in you, skeet bag. GABBY stands back. GABBY: Oh, is that your best insult? Vikki’s probably using you to get back at Travis. KJ: I doubt it, because she doesn’t use people. You, however, seem to be very good at it. KJ runs after VIKKI and TRAVIS, leaving GABBY behind alone. GABBY rolls her eyes and shakes her head and then sprints after them. Cut to 130. Ext. The Dirt Spot #5 – NIGHT ZERNER continues to drive at ELIAS’ gunpoint as CHRIS looks on in fear. CHRIS stares at him. CHRIS: So who are you? ELIAS: I told you I was the one to ask questions, not you. CHRIS: What are you going to do, shoot me? You’re not the killing kind. ELIAS: And how would you know? CHRIS: I’ve met the killing kind. ELIAS: Oh have you? CHRIS glares at him briefly as ZERNER drives in suspense. ZERNER: Chris, maybe we don’t want to temp the man. I mean he is holding a pistol to my head. CHRIS: Oh Greg, don’t be such a pussy. ELIAS: Chris and Greg huh? You married or divorced? CHRIS: Neither.
Well then you just broke up.
I know the kind. CHRIS turns and presses her back up against her seat. ELIAS relaxes the gun. ELIAS: She was right, you know. I wasn’t going to shoot. I’ve never killed a man before in my life. CHRIS grins and nods at ZERNER, who just continues driving. ELIAS: So what’s your last name Chris? CHRIS: Like I’d tell you. ELIAS: My name is Dr. Elias Voorhees, now I’ve told you mine, you can tell me yours. CHRIS: Voorhees? Oh, right, you’re the guy claiming to be Jason’s father. ELIAS: So I’m already famous around these parts. Hasn’t been an hour since people discovered who I am. CHRIS: Jason’s father left Crystal Lake in the 70’s. He hasn’t been heard from since. ELIAS: Jason’s father was a Medical Doctor who was earning way less than he deserved in the 70’s. So of course he had to leave. CHRIS: If you’re Jason’s father, why are you here? Did you murder those two kids down the street? ELIAS: I told you I’ve never killed. I’m here because of Jason. CHRIS: But Jason died twenty three years ago. He was killed by a twelve year old boy named Tommy Jarvis. ELIAS: Yeah, I know the story. But there’s a difference between reality and fiction. Jason has always been a little… different. I met his mother Pamela when we were young, too young. I was a sixteen year old brainiac studying to get into Harvard and she was a year younger. We planned to live together for the rest of our days. But then there was an accident. CHRIS: Jason.
On June 13, 1946, Pamela gave birth to first and only child, Jason Voorhees. Under the circumstances, I had to give up my dreams of Harvard and she her dreams, and we had to support the child. The worst part was not the fact that our lives seemed to have stopped, but that Jason was born as what some would call a monster.
You mean he was deformed? ELIAS: Severely deformed on the left side of his skull. His doctors saved his life by injecting steroids into his brain to help balance out the skull, but Jason was always monstrous to the other children. When he was eleven he had no friends at all, so we decided to send him to a camp where Pamela was working – Camp Crystal Lake. In the summer of 1957 Jason drowned in Crystal Lake, but his body was never found. ZERNER buds into the conversation. ZERNER: It is commonly believed among Psychologists that Jason faked his death that day to live in the woods, away from people so that he would have to face the stress that society placed on him. With people he was a monster, as a loner he was human. ELIAS: Very good Dr. Greg. Jason did indeed fend for himself in the forest, but his plan seemed to backfire. Rather than helping to humanize him, Jason lost touch with the real world. He found killing small animals a necessity to survive, and murder became an instinct. For the next twenty two years Jason would live on his own, practicing and anticipating his revenge on the world. CHRIS: Meanwhile your wife went insane. ELIAS: Extremely insane. It doesn’t take a Psychology degree to tell you that, does it Greg? ZERNER rolls his eyes. ELIAS: On Jason’s birthday the following year, just when the camp had reopened, Pamela murdered two young camp Councilors. The murders went unsolved, and ultimately shut down the camp permanently for twenty one years. Then in 1979- CHRIS: It reopened, hoping that the “death curse” was lifted. ELIAS: Yes. By that time I had left Pamela to her own insanity, allowing her to mourn the loss of Jason. I was then able to put myself through Medical school without having to support a family, and I eventually got a job in the early 70’s at a top secret Government facility. There, I was able to experiment with different chemicals and drugs as we searched for the drug to make the ultimate soldier. ZERNER: Ultimate what? ELIAS: Ultimate soldier. It was during the Vietnam years, when the Government wanted to create a drug that could take an ordinary person and make them immune to pain and suffering, and only have a desire to kill. Not only that, but it would increase their muscle mass rapidly, and increase their healing time. CHRIS: So why you were off trying to make the ultimate soldier your wife was killing young camp Councilors. ELIAS: Until Pamela herself was killed. Decapitated by the soul survivor. However, Jason was nearby that night, and saw the revenge that his mother was wreaking for him. Her love for him had killed her, and Jason saw her death. He then made it his mission to get revenge for her on anyone who enters Crystal Lake. CHRIS: And from 1979 all the way until July 13, 1984, Jason was slicing his way through the population of Crystal Lake. I know the story, I was there. And as I said, in 1984, he was killed. A machete in the head. ELIAS: Yes, he was killed, but his brain activity wasn’t dead. Hearing of his rampage, I rushed to retrieve his body. I convinced the Government to allow me to take it to run tests on. He was indeed the prime candidate. So the Government made up a story that he was cremated and then gave the body to my lab. There was such little brain activity that it seemed hopeless, but we tried. It took twenty three years, but my lab was finally able to wake Jason up. We used steroids of all kinds and medication to bring the dead back to life… again. CHRIS: You son of a bitch. Do you know what that… that… creature does to people? He killed seven of my friends. ELIAS: He was my child, would you allow your child to just die? Cut to 131. Ext. Camp Crystal Lake – NIGHT VIKKI, KJ, TRAVIS, and GABBY have all arrived back at Camp Crystal Lake. Immediately VIKKI sees CHARLES, who is propped up against a tree. VIKKI runs over to him. VIKKI: Dad, daddy! What is going on? Why did you send everyone home? VIKKI reaches CHARLES and touches him gentle. He doesn’t movie, but as she was around the tree she notices blood flowing into the ground. VIKKI looks up to see that her father has a police crowbar going straight through him into the tree, and that he has a huge gash in his chest. VIKKI slowly backs up, holding her mouth and trying not to scream. KJ sees her and runs to her. KJ: Vikki, what’s wrong, what it is? VIKKI: He’s dead… KJ: What?
TRAVIS: My God, Vic, I’m so sorry. VIKKI looks up. VIKKI: We have to call the police. GABBY approaches them slowly. GABBY: I think there’s a phone inside. I’ll go call someone. VIKKI: Someone should go with you. It’s not safe. KJ: I think it’s best if we don’t split up. There’s obviously some lunatic on the loose. GABBY: I agree. Shall we? Cut to 132. Int. Camp Crystal Lake Dining Hall – NIGHT GABBY leads VIKKI, KJ, and TRAVIS into the dining hall. GABBY reaches her hand around the side and feels the wall until she finds a switch. She flicks it but the lights don’t go on. GABBY backs up. GABBY: The lights are out. VIKKI: I think we should just leave. I really don’t like the looks of this. TRAVIS: If you want I’ll wait out here with you. VIKKI: Actually I think we all should just leave this place. How stupid would it be to stay around when we know that someone was just killed here? VIKKI turns to KJ. VIKKI: We could go back to your house, get help from your mom. TRAVIS: Vic, you’re in shock. I’ll wait out here with you and those two can go in the house. GABBY: Travis, why the hell did I ever sleep with you? You’re such a prick, sending us into the house. Can’t you just be an actual man rather than a pussy football star? VIKKI: Enough, please, enough. I don’t know how much more I can take. GABBY: Well, I’ll go in the house, only if one of the men comes with me. GABBY looks at TRAVIS with an angry face before turning to KJ with a gentle face. GABBY: You look like you can handle yourself. And you are the only “man” here. KJ rolls his eyes and gentle lays his hand on VIKKI. KJ: I’ll be right back. VIKKI moves her hand up onto his and gives a faint smile through her tears. KJ and GABBY then walk into the cabin. GABBY: There’s a phone upstairs. Cut to 133. Int. Camp Crystal Lake Dining Hall [Second Floor] – NIGHT GABBY and KJ approach the top of the stairs. GABBY: What a bad day Vikki’s had, hasn’t she? KJ: Where’d you say the phone was? GABBY: Over there, in that office area. KJ sees a large desk with a typewriter on it from the light shining through the window. GABBY: So, your first visit to Crystal Lake has been interesting, hasn’t it? Hey, it’s what we’re known for, serial killers. KJ suddenly frowns as if he senses something. VIKKI walks over to the phone and stands next to the window so she can see the numbers in some light. KJ: Gabby, there’s something strange. GABBY: What?
There’s someone else in this room.
What are you talking about? It’s just you and me. KJ slowly begins to walk towards GABBY, who is starting to dial the number. GABBY: It’s kind of hard to dial the number with such limited light. KJ: Gabby I think we should get out of here. GABBY: Hold up, I just got the operator. KJ: There’s someone else in here. GABBY places the phone up to her ear. KJ: There’s someone else in the room. KJ spots a small glimmer of light coming from the darkness next to the window. KJ: Gabby, there’s someone else in the fucking room! From where the glimmer was, JASON leaps out with his machete, and with one good swing he lands the blade directly in GABBY’S face, knocking her backwards and out of the window. Cut to 134. Ext. Camp Crystal Lake – NIGHT VIKKI and TRAVIS, who are sitting by a tree near the front of the Dining Hall, are startled when GABBY’S body comes crashing through the window and lands on the ground, next to them. VIKKI screams and jumps into TRAVIS’ arms. Cut to 135. Int. Camp Crystal Lake Dining Hall [Second Floor] – NIGHT KJ watches as JASON looks out the window and then turns to him. KJ quickly runs down the steps. Cut to 136. Ext. Camp Crystal Lake – NIGHT VIKKI is frantically screaming for KJ as TRAVIS tries to calm her down and run. VIKKI: KJ, KJ! Answer me! KJ comes sprinting through the front door of the dining hall. KJ: Let’s get out of here, quick! KJ grabs VIKKI by the arm and they run up the driveway. TRAVIS follows. JASON walks outside and reaches down to rip his machete out from GABBY’S face. KJ, VIKKI, and TRAVIS continue to run up the driveway when they see headlights coming their way. They all run towards the headlights, screaming and jumping. VIKKI, TRAVIS, KJ: Help, help us, help! The car comes to a sudden stop and leaves the headlights on. SANCHEZ jumps out of the driver’s seat and runs over to the kids. VIKKI jogs to him with relief. VIKKI: Mr. Sanchez, you have to help us. SANCHEZ: Vikki, Vikki. What is it? What happened? TRAVIS: There’s this guy, he’s killing them, he’s killing them all. SANCHEZ: Okay, okay, get in the car. They all rush to the car. SANCHEZ gets in the driver’s seat while VIKKI gets in the passenger’s side. TRAVIS and KJ both get into the back seat. Cut to 137. Int. Police Car – NIGHT SANCHEZ turns to VIKKI. SANCHEZ: Now you kids have to tell me exactly what the hell happened. VIKKI: He killed Gabby and my father and… VIKKI breaks down into tears. TRAVIS: There’s this fucking guy wearing a hockey mask and carrying a machete. KJ: It’s Jason Voorhees… or someone who’s acting under his motive. SANCHEZ: I take it you’re Ms. Higgins’ son. KJ: Look, if this is Jason then we have to get out of here. SANCHEZ: I can’t leave this son of a bitch. He killed my little girls back in ’84. He’s gonna pay. SANCHEZ reaches down to the radio to call for help when VIKKI sees a large shadow cast over his window. VIKKI once again screams through her tears. VIKKI: Look out! JASON’S hand comes crashing through the window and grabs SANCHEZ by the neck. JASON’S other hand then comes through the window and grabs his collar. JASON pulls him out of the car while the kids scream. Cut to 138. Ext. Camp Crystal Lake – NIGHT JASON pulls SANCHEZ’S whole body out of the car and holds him up in the air by his head. SANCHEZ’S feet are off the ground. JASON begins to press both hands against SANCHEZ’S skull, squeezing it and crushing it. SANCHEZ begins to shake uncontrollably for several second as blood shoots out from his eyes, mouth, nose, and ears. SANCHEZ then stops shaking and JASON drops him to the ground. JASON then looks into the car. JASON watches at the three terrified teens sit in the car screaming. Soon after JASON ducks to the ground and they can’t see him anymore. They stop screaming and listen carefully. Then JASON’S machete comes crashing through the back door on KJ’S side, hitting his leg and going straight through. KJ yells in pain. JASON pulls the machete out from the car and stands up. He then thrusts the machete through KJ’S side of the car, just missing KJ’S face. VIKKI lunges into the back seat and pulls KJ forward, trying to get him into the front. In fear, TRAVIS opens the door to the car and runs away from the car at a fully sprint. JASON sees him running and follows. VIKKI and KJ turn their heads to look out the back window of the car as JASON stalks TRAVIS. TRAVIS is running at a full pace as JASON walks at a fast steady pace behind him. TRAVIS runs into the nearby woods and wrestles his way through some bushes. TRAVIS comes to a stop and looks behind to see that JASON is not in view. TRAVIS turns around and begins to run. |
