SYNOPSIS

A group of perspective councilors try to reopen Camp Crystal Lake; which has been closed for years after a series of bizarre “accidents”. When the new councilors start dropping like flies they discover that a woman named Mrs. Voorhees has been staging the “accidents” and murders. Her son, Jason, died at that camp in 1957. She talks to her self in his voice and wants to exact revenge on all of the councilors. Mrs. Voorhees kills all of the councilors except for Alice, who decapitates her. While attempting to get to safety via canoe Alice appears to be pulled under water by Jason. She wakes up in a hospital to be told that they found no body for Jason, and that he was probably just a dream.
