Unaware that mass murderer Jason Vorhees has escaped from the Wessex County morgue where his supposedly dead body was taken, six teenagers—Paul (Clyde Hayes), Doug (Peter Barton), Ted (Lawrence Monoson), Jimmy (Crispin Glover), Sara (Barbara Howard), and Samantha (Judie Aronson)—arrive at the cottage they have rented on Crystal Lake not far from the cottage where 17-year-old Trish Jarvis (Kimberly Beck), her 12-year-old brother Tommy (Corey Feldman), and their mother (Joan Freeman) are staying. While the teens are planning a night of partying, Jason is planning something entirely different.
Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter is the fourth movie in the Friday the 13th series, preceded by Friday the 13th (1980) (1980), Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981) (1981) and Friday the 13th: Part 3 (1982) (1982) and followed by Friday the 13th: A New Beginning (1985) (1985), Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives (1986) (1986), Friday the 13th: The New Blood (1988) (1988), Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan (1989) (1989), Jason Goes to Hell (1993) (1993), Jason X (2001) (2001), and Freddy vs. Jason (2003) (2003). The screenplay for The Final Chapter was written by Barney Cohen based on a storyline by Bruce Hidemi Sakow.
Immediately. Various police and ambulances are carting away the bodies of the kids Jason murdered in Part III. Jason is still lying in the barn. The police are bagging up the axe that Chris used to kill him. Like the others, Jason's body is being taken to the Wessex County Morgue.
In the movie, she stumbles out into the rainstorm and her fate is left ambiguous. In the original script, however, she is found by one of the characters drowned in the bathtub.
The workprint features several story extensions that were probably cut due to pacing reasons. Unfortunately, no new gore scenes can be found in this version. The UK VHS is censored, in that approximately 20 seconds are missing involving some gore/fighting scenes. These cuts were waived for the more modern DVD release.
