Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan

Continuity mistake: When Jason is holding Eva in the air, he lifts her up higher towards the ceiling, but in the shots of her feet, they stay in the same position.

Factual error: In Manhattan, you can't just climb into a sewer tunnel. They are barricaded, meaning the only people who are allowed down there are city workers.

Continuity mistake: Crystal Lake goes from a lake surrounded by land in previous installments to suddenly having the space for a small yacht and a channel that feeds right to the open ocean.

Factual error: Jason put Shawn's dad up against the ships wheel. Dead bodies can't stand up.

Factual error: When Jason pushes Julius overboard, he would have drowned within minutes. No one can stay underwater that long without drowning.

Trivia: In the original script, after making it to the docks, a dog would appear and start barking at Jason prompting Jason to kick it. Kane Hodder refused and even stated that as evil as Jason was, he'd never hurt an animal, so the scene was dropped.

Question: What was with the ending? He melts down to a regular looking boy when in the original he was shown as deformed. I hate this ending, consider it the weakest and worst of the franchise.
