Trivia:

  • Walt Gorney, who played Crazy Ralph in Friday the 13th Parts One and Two, is the opening narrator at the beginning of this film.
     
  • This film was originally intended to bring Jason Voorhees and Freddy Krueger together onscreen for the first time. But when Paramount Pictures (at that time was holding the rights to the "Friday the 13th" franchise) and New Line Cinema (who holds the rights to the "A Nightmare on Elm Street" series) couldn't agree behind the scenes, the script was rewritten to pit Jason up against the telekinetic Tina Shepard instead.
     
  • Often referred to as "Carrie vs. Jason" because of the heroins similarities to Sissy Spacek's character in Carrie.
