Horror remake of the original 1980 teenage slasher movie. The film begins in 1980 with Pamela Voorhees (Nana Visitor) attempting to murder her last female victim in a bid to avenge her son Jason (Derek Mears)'s death. However, the girl manages to escape after cutting off Pamela's head: an act which the young and apparently alive Jason witnesses from the woods. Events then skips to the present day with a group of teenagers set to go camping at Camp Crystal Lake, the scene of previous atrocities. Inevitably, one by one, they run into the machete-wielding, hockey-masked Jason who's back to do some slashing.
