Friday the 13th, Part 6: Jason Lives

MEGAN

When are you going to stop

treating me like one!

SHERIFF

When you stop acting like one...

Tommy Jarvis is a very sick boy.

And you...

MEGAN

How do you know? Did you take his

temperature?

SHERIFF

(pointing at her)

You watch that smart-mouthing,

young lady.

CLOSE ON MEGAN

She crosses her eyes in a comic attempt to watch her mouth.

MEGAN

Kinda hard to see it from this

angle? Got a mirror?

ANGLE ON BOTH

Megan enjoys pushing her temperamental father to the limit.

He stomps around like Ralph Kramden.

MEGAN

(coolly)

Now tell me, "If your mother was

alive, you wouldn't..."

The poor sheriff finally blows sky-high. He throws open the

door.

SHERIFF

That's it! Out! I don't need

this tonight. Out, Megan!

The sheriff gets a CALL over the SHORT-WAVE. Unintimidated

by his bellowing, Megan calmly answers it.

MEGAN

Sheriff's office...

(listens)

...Can you hold on? He's in the

can draining his lizard.

SHERIFF GARRIS

slams the door and roars toward his precocious daughter.

MEGAN

(sweetly into phone)

...Oh, here he comes now...

(to sheriff)

...Daddy, it's Rick.

The growling sheriff practically rips the receiver out of

snickering Megan's hand.

SHERIFF

(barking)

What?!...What kinda problem?!

EXT. FOREST ROAD

Deputy Colone stands outside his squad car. Talking into the

mike, he stares fearfully at the VW Bug and Lizbeth's

floating corpse in the background.

SHERIFF

You better get down here. I found

what's left of the counselors.

Looks like someone did them in

using Jason's old M.O.

INT. SHERIFF'S OFFICE

SHERIFF

(rubbing his face)

I knew I should've done something

about that sonofa... Where are

you?...

(listens)

...Right. I'm on my way.

Megan grows concerned as her father gathers his things with

a deadly urgency.

MEGAN

What it is?

SHERIFF

(trying to control his

emotions)

Not what...who. Seems your

boyfriend wants people to believe

Jason has returned.

MEGAN

(catching him)

I thought Jason was only a legend?

SHERIFF

He is. Only Tommy wants to prove

the legend is true...

(ordering her)

...You stay put. And I'm not

kidding.

Grabbing his rifle, the sheriff rushes out.

ANGLE ON MEGAN

She stares, wondering what the hell is going on.

CUT TO:

EXT. FOREST - NIGHT

WE TRACK with Jason's filthy boots. He's walking at a faster

clip toward his destination.

TRACK with Jason's hand holding the razor-sharp machete.

DOLLY BACK as Jason's maleficent eyes stare with pure hatred.

He keeps coming right at us.

CUT TO:

INT. SHERIFF'S OFFICE - NIGHT

Megan sits alone at the desk...waiting. A large window is

right behind her. Bored, she puts her feet on the edge of

the desk. She then leans back toward the window, seeing how

far back the chair will go and still stay balanced.

CIRCLE AND PRESS IN SLOWLY ON MEGAN

Tension builds as we move closer to the balancing girl and

the window behind her. We stop and wait. SUDDENLY THE PHONE

RINGS LOUDLY. It startles Megan, who screams as she

pratfalls backwards.

ANGLE ON MEGAN

Laughing at herself, she gets up and answers the phone.

MEGAN

Sheriff's office...

(listens)

...No, I'm sorry, he's not in at

the moment. Can I take a message?

As she listens, Megan immediately straightens up.

MEGAN

...Oh, hi. I'm Megan, his

daughter. Remember, I met you

this morning...

EXT. PHONE BOOTH - NIGHT

Tommy is in a badly sabotaged old phone booth next to a

closed gas station. He is illuminated by the LIGHTS of his

pickup.

TOMMY

(preoccupied)

Yeah, hi. Listen, I've got to

talk to your dad. About Jason.

I've got a plan. I need to buy

some things first but mainly need

help to...

INT. SHERIFF'S OFFICE

MEGAN

Tommy, my father is out looking

for you right now. Something

happened tonight and he's sure

you're responsible. If he finds

you, he'll...

INT. PHONE BOOTH

TOMMY

(interrupting)

I already have a very good idea

what could've happened...

(frustrated)

...Megan, Jason is out there. He

has to be stopped. I'm positive

he's heading back to the lake

area. He'll keep killing until...

MEGAN'S VOICE

I'll pick you up. Where are you?

TOMMY

(shocked)

What?

INT. SHERIFF'S OFFICE

MEGAN

(determined)

It's the only way. My father will

nail you in your car in a second...

(demanding)

...Where are you?

EXT. PHONE BOOTH

Tommy looks around for something identifiable.

TOMMY

Uh...Howie's Service Station and

Feed Bag Stop. I think it's...

MEGAN'S VOICE

(on phone)

I know where it is. See you

within a half-hour.

Hearing her HANG-UP, Tommy does the same and exits the booth.

ANGLE ON TOMMY

He looks around, shivers and zips up his jacket. He's

worried about involving Megan in this. He's worried for

himself.

CUT TO:

EXT. DARK WOODS - NIGHT

Out of the foggy shadows, an evil spectre emerges into the

moonlight...JASON. He stares.

JASON'S P.O.V.

EXT. CAMP FOREST GREEN

The renovated campsite looks quite peaceful and calm before

the...

ANGLE ON JASON

He cocks his head, not quite sure why it looks so different.

But it feels like home. With machete in hand, he proceeds

into the camp ground.

EXT. FOREST ROAD - NIGHT

A grossly bloody sheet. It covers a corpse that is lifted

into an ambulance.

As we PULL BACK, Sheriff Garris and TWO OTHER OFFICERS when

in disgust. The sheriff suddenly turns and heads for the

patrol cars. Officers PAPPAS and THORNTON follow behind.

SHERIFF

(controlling his rage)

I want all officers, all units and

stations within a fifty-mile

radius alerted about this wacko

kid.

OFFICER PAPPAS

Yes, sir.

SHERIFF

You have his vehicle description.

I want roadblocks on...

DEPUTY'S VOICE

(yelling from distance)

Sheriff! Get over here!!

EXT. WOODS

ANGLE ON SHERIFF

He takes off into the woods toward his deputy's voice.

SHERIFF'S P.O.V.

We MOVE rapidly through the maze of trees and brush.

MOVING SHOT - CLOSE ON SHERIFF

He heads towards us, searching for the deputy.

DEPUTY'S VOICE

Sheriff, over here!

SHERIFF'S P.O.V.

We TURN and HEAD FOR Deputy Colone waving a flashlight at us.

ANGLE ON SHERIFF AND DEPUTY

Running up to his ashen-faced deputy, Sheriff Garris looks

down at what Rick holds out.

INSERT - DEPUTY'S HAND

A pair of blood-splattered glasses. We recognize them as

once belonging to Roy, the last remaining survival hunter.

BACK TO SHERIFF AND DEPUTY

The sheriff looks at him.

SHERIFF

Is that all you found?

DEPUTY

I wish it was.
