Continuity mistake: Right before Jason slits Axel's throat, we see him grabbing Jason by his elbow. When it cuts from a shot above we see him holding Jason by his wrist. (00:13:25)

Mortug

Continuity mistake: When Sam asks Sara to come into the water, Sara says no. Then Sam says "Then I'll go under water and stay there until you do", while placing her hands on the edge of the pier. When it cuts to a close-up of her she is resting her arms on the pier instead. (00:29:20)

Mortug

Continuity mistake: When Trish is inching by Jason lying on the floor, in one shot she steps over his arm and her feet are near his shoulder, then in the next shot it shows her stepping over his arm again. (01:17:10)

Hamster

Continuity mistake: When Trish drops the machete it falls half ways on a carpet. When Tommy picks it up it lays on the floor. (01:21:15)

Mortug

Continuity mistake: This mistake is for the Deluxe Edition DVD only. In the previous film, Jason is defeated by an axe blow to the head, which pierces through the top of his hockey mask on the left side. In this subsequent sequel, the cut in his mask is still on the left side. However, for the menu of this DVD, the hockey mask is shown as the menu art with the same cut from the axe. However it's on the wrong side of the mask, being on the right side now.

Quantom X

Continuity mistake: When Trish and Tommy get to the house, it's pouring rain. When they get into the house, Trish's hair is completely dry and there's just a small wet spot on her blue shirt.

Revealing mistake: When Jason rips Jimbo from the door, it shows a close up of his hand. Looks and tears like rubber. (01:17:15)

Trivia: When Judie Aronson, who plays Samantha, was filming the scene in the raft where she gets killed, they were doing so many takes. She was wet and cold and wanted to warm up. The director refused until he got the shot he wanted which made Judie cry and freak out. Ted White, who played Jason, was so upset about this that he demanded they get her a blanket and let her get warmed up or he would walk off the set and not come back. Needless to say, Judie got warmed up very quickly.
