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)
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)
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)
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)
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)
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)
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)
Continuity mistake: When Megan and Tommy drive up on the roadblock, Officers Pappas and Thornton chase after them. Notice the precipitation on the windshields of the police cars, and Megan's car. Seconds later when Officer Pappas is on the radio with the Sheriff, his windshield is dry, without any rain drops on it at all. (00:49:00)
Continuity mistake: When Tommy runs down to the boats he is carrying a sack with him. He almost loses the sack to the ground, but when it cuts he has his hands firmly around it again. (01:08:40)
Continuity mistake: When Sissy and Paula are in the cabin as the girl screams, Sissy holds her hand up. When it cuts to them running, her arm is suddenly down. (00:32:15)
Continuity mistake: During the scene where Jason kills the couple in the volkswagen and again during the police chase it goes from night to day to night again. (00:13:00)
Continuity mistake: The propeller damage to Jason changes between shots. (01:18:00)
Continuity mistake: In Part V the mayor says Jason was cremated, which would mean there would be no body to "bring back" for this film.
Continuity mistake: Jason's machete disappears from his hand as he walks after Steven through the woods.
Continuity mistake: The sheriff shoots Jason in the head with his revolver and makes a hole by Jason's right eye. Jason pulls Tommy underwater and begins to choke him and Tommy passes out. There is a close up of Jason's face and the bullet hole is now gone. When Megan tries to save Tommy she cuts Jason's throat with the boat propeller and the bullet hole is visible again on Jason's mask. (01:07:25 - 01:18:00)
Continuity mistake: When Tommy is in the boat at the end, he pours gasoline on each side of the boat. He lights one side and both sides ignite, but how could this be if he didn't pour it all around the boat. Also, when he is fighting with Jason the ring of fire moves away from the boat. (01:14:05)
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)
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)
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)
