Trivia:

This was the first of the Friday the 13th films to use the hockey mask, which has been in every sequel since.
The highest grossing 3D movie of all time.
Not including the scenes from "Part 2," this is the only "Friday the 13th" film when none of the characters actually say the name "Jason."
Richard Brooker was chosen as Jason simply because Steve Miner needed a big man for the role.
Able (the old man) is much like Crazy Ralph from the first two films.
