Friday the 13th, Part 6: Jason Lives

He shines his flashlight at the ground.

A SEVERED MAN

is illuminated before us. It wears an Army fatigue sleeve.

We FOLLOW the light over a couple of yards to a HACKED-OFF

LEG, also in fatigues.

CLOSER ON LAWMEN

Both keep staring stoically down at the body parts.

SHERIFF

Better get out the Hefty Bags...

Looks like our boy desperately

wants us to believe his story.

DEPUTY

He sure chose the right day to

pull this shit.

SHERIFF

Whaddya mean?

DEPUTY

(cryptically)

Happy Friday the 13th.

The sheriff slowly looks over at him in utter disbelief.

CUT TO:

EXT. CAMP FOREST GREEN - NIGHT

CLOSE ON TELEPHONE CORD ON CABIN

WHACK! The machete blade cuts the phone cord in half.

ANGLE BEHIND JASON

He stares at his handiwork, then heads towards the lit and

open window.

CUT TO:

INT. COUNSELOR'S CABIN

Paula has fallen asleep on her bed. The phone is right next

to her.

SISSY

is wearing headphones, listening to her Walkman. She sits on

her bed, ogling through the pages of a "PLAYGIRL" magazine.

OVER SISSY'S SHOULDER

The magazine is filled with beefcake-posing guys. She is

practically drooling on the pages. In the background, a

figure quickly passes by the open window.

CLOSE ON SISSY

The movement catches her eye. She cranes her head to look.

WIDER

Taking off the ROCK 'N' ROLL BLARING headphones, Sissy shuts

off her Walkman. She walks over to the window and looks out.

EXT. WINDOW

Sissy, framed by the open window, surveys the area.

HER P.O.V.

All is still and motionless in the campgrounds.

CLOSE ON SISSY

A bit perplexed. She knows she saw something. She starts to

turn away, when the SOUND of LEAVES CRUNCHING underfoot is

HEARD. She sticks her head out the window. She tries to

sound authoritative.

SISSY

All right, who's out there?

PAULA

stirs and awakens halfway.

PAULA

(sleepily)

What's goin' on?

ANGLE ON SISSY

SISSY

(a bit nervous)

I think somebody's messin' around

out there.

Paula smirks, rolls over, and closes her eyes.

PAULA

It's gotta be Cort. He loves to

scare people...

(falling asleep)

...Teach him a lesson.

BACK TO SISSY

She HEARS FOOTSTEPS right below the window. She thinks, then

breaks into an impish grin, seeing something. Sissy quietly

tiptoes over to the table and picks up her half-consumed can

of "Cherry Coke."

MOVING SHOT

Sissy, trying not to laugh, sneaks back to the window. She

crouches down, then extends the can outside.

CLOSE ON CAN

Her hands turn it over and sticky "Cherry Coke" pours down on

her victim. We HEAR IT HITTING SOMEONE.

ANGLE ON SISSY

Quickly she withdraws the can and jumps back from the window.

Expecting a response, she is surprised not to get one.

Stifling a laugh, she creeps back toward the window.

DOLLY IN - SLOWLY FOLLOWING SISSY

Tension mounts as she reaches the frame and tentatively peers

over it. SHOCKINGLY, JASON SPRINGS UP AND GRABS HER.

PROFILE ANGLE - ON WINDOW

Bottom half of Sissy's body is WHIPPED VIOLENTLY OUT THROUGH

THE WINDOW.

PAULA AWAKENS

just as Sissy's legs fly out through the window.

PAULA

(groggy)

Hey, you guys. Try got to wake

the kids.

Paula listens. She HEARS a STRUGGLE, a WHOOSH, a THUMP, then

SILENCE. She snickers once again, then falls back into

dreamland.

CUT TO:

EXT. PHONE BOOTH - NIGHT

Megan's orange Camaro SCREECHES UP. We FOLLOW as she jumps

out and is met by Tommy.

TOMMY

(adamantly)

I'm gonna borrow your car. You

can't do this with me. It's much

too dangerous.

She looks past him at his pickup.

MEGAN

And you can't leave that truck out

in plain sight. Talk about

dangerous.

Tommy turns around to look.

TOMMY

What?

MEGAN

Hide it behind the gas station.

Then we can get the hell out of

here.

He turns back to her.

TOMMY

(irritated)

Look, this isn't a game. You're

not going with me. I'm already

responsible for causing the death

of...

Megan cuts him off.

MEGAN

(quickly)

Didn't you say you needed some

supplies to do this?

TOMMY

Uh...yes. But...

MEGAN

(firmly)

Then let's get goin'. We can

argue on the way. You tell me

what you need...

(with a sly smile)

...I'll make sure you get in.

She heads toward her LOUDLY PURRING Camaro.

MEGAN

...And nobody drives this baby but

me...

(pointing)

...Now get that pickup hid and

let's boog.

ANGLE ON TOMMY

There isn't much he can say. With an exasperated sigh, he

runs to move his truck.

CUT TO:

INT. GIRL'S DORMITORY CABIN - NIGHT

SLOWLY we TRACK along a row of sleeping children. Each has

her own unique position of slumber. We PULL BACK to reveal

her large windows just above them beaming in moonlight.

JASON'S SILHOUETTE CARRYING SISSY'S HEADLESS CORPSE PASSES.

ON THE OPPOSITE WALL

We FOLLOW Jason's evil shadow as it crosses more sleeping

kids. When it falls across little Nancy, her half-open eyes

flash open! She sits up in wide-eyed fear as we rapidly

PRESS IN on her.

CUT TO:

EXT. FOREST ROAD - NIGHT

Megan's hot Camaro jets down the road, kickin' up dust.

INT. MEGAN'S CAR

Tommy shoots Megan a look.

TOMMY

(dryly)

Can this tub go any faster?

She returns a flirtatious grin.

MEGAN

(self-assured)

You got it. Just keep an eye out

for roadblocks.

TOMMY

(looking ahead; deadpan)

Okay. There's one.

THEIR P.O.V. - THROUGH WINDSHIELD

As they round the bend, two police cars with lights a-

flashin' are blocking the road.

EXT. FOREST ROAD

Megan's car SKIDS to a stop.

INT. MEGAN'S CAR

Tommy looks at the temperature Megan for a plan. She

delivers. Grabbing his head, she pulls it down onto her lap.

MEGAN

(forcefully)

Get down.

CLOSE ON TOMMY'S FACE

He stares bug-eyed as he confronts her tight-jeaned crotch.

INSERT - GEARSHIFT

She slams it into reverse.

EXT. FOREST ROAD

The orange bomber ROARS backwards down the road.
