This transgression is apparently enough to stir the wrath of Jason Voorhees and the killer begins stalking the campsite. Two of his staff go in search of the legend and are hauled in by the police for trespassing. Paul Holt heads a counselor training program located on the opposite side of the lake and is gearing up for the new season. In the five years since the massacre at Camp Crystal Lake, the grounds have been condemned and the events are the basis for an urban legend told to scare other campers.
Writer Ron Kurz runs with the idea of reversing the killer's motive, and now the previously drowned Jason will avenge the murder of his mother at the hands of a camp counselor. Another misadventure on Crystal Lake was going forward with or without them, so Steve Miner (production manager and associate producer on the first film) was hired to direct. Tom Savini also passed on the repetition and opted instead to work on the (awesome) Friday clone, The Burning (so much for originality). Cunningham and writer Victor Miller did not wish to repeat themselves, having wrapped things up nicely at the end of their story. With the unexpected success of the original film, the studio encouraged a sequel, the sooner the better. He is smaller, faster and more vulnerable than you might expect, and he does not wear the signature mask.
Newcomers to the proceedings will note that this is a much different character than the later iconic image of Jason everyone is familiar with. He has a brief appearance in the original film before coming into his own a year later in Friday the 13th Part 2. The phrase "James Bond will return" usually appeared in the closing credits of each installment in that saga, but Jason Voorhees was never intended to be the star of the show.
Sure Dracula and Godzilla have made more onscreen appearances, but usually in freestanding adventures. Of 13 Friday the 13th: The Complete Collection - Friday the 13th Part 2 Blu-ray Reviewīlu-ray released by Warner Bros.
