Friday the 13th Part 2

Continuity mistake: When Jason enters Ginny's cabin, all that is shown are his feet. After running through rain and mud, he leaves no tracks whatsoever, and his shoes are spotless. (01:10:20)

Hamster ★

Continuity mistake: As Ginny hits Jason in the shoulder with the machete, in the first shot it catches part of his sack and is embedded diagonally. In the next shot, the blade is clear of the sack and the machete is now perfectly horizontal. (01:16:55)

Continuity mistake: When Jason comes smashing through the window at the end, to attack Ginny who is getting up from the cot, the camera angles are inconsistent with the attack. First he is lounging at her from behind, to grab her. Then his distorted face is suddenly at her left shoulder before he's even touched her Then she's looking back at him and screaming before his hands even touch her and pull her out of the window. (01:24:20)

Continuity mistake: When Scott gets his throat cut, blood pours out. Yet when Terri spins him around, there's no blood anywhere on him except a small amount on his shirt sleeves.

Continuity mistake: When Sandra and Jeff sneak off to Camp Blood they walk right along the waterline with the lake on their left, yet after crossing the barbed-wire fence, the lake (in the background) is on their right; this was a mirrored image.

Continuity mistake: Jason drags Vicky down the steps all bloody, yet doesn't leave any blood on the steps.

Mistakes

Other mistake: Right at the part where Crazy Ralph is looking in on Paul and Ginny. Ralph hears a breaking of a stick behind him. You can see Jason put the barbed wire up and over the tree. How is that possible? He would have to whip it around the tree, not over it. (00:30:20)

Trivia

Trivia: An actor/stuntman named Steve Dash actually played Jason in almost every scene, but was crestfallen when he found out he wouldn't be given on-screen credit for the role. Due to some studio red-tape, the actor credited for portraying Jason was Warrington Gillette, a stand-in who only appeared on-screen for a brief instance. (Gillette portrayed the "Unmasked Jason" under heavy makeup, who leaps through the window at the end of the film and is only on-screen for about 20 seconds.) Dash was understandably upset, as he put in almost all the work to create and play the character, but got no reward and was only credited as being Jason's stunt-double. When archival footage from this film was re-used in the next two installments in flashback, Dash was finally given the proper credit he deserved and was given sole credit for portraying Jason via archival footage.

Questions

Question: At the beginning the 2 kids call Ted to get directions, but when they see their truck being towed, they leave the phone, and chase the tow truck. The truck is taken right around the corner, and Ted is outside, waiting for them. There were no pay phones showing where Ted was, and no cell phones, so how did Ted call them, and get to be right around the corner so fast?

Answer: Probably from inside the building he was standing in front of.
