Alternate Versions

The following scenes were cut to avoid an "X" rating from the MPAA:
  • The death scene of Andy showed his right leg and stomach being cut apart.
  • Vera's death was longer, it included more blood and a shot of her reaction. It was cut because the board said that it looked too real.
  • Edna's death was cut of excess blood.
  • The impaling of Chili with the hot poker was cut. Originally, the impalement was shown, along with a splash of smoldering blood.
  • Debbie's death originally showed blood spraying across her upper half and face.

The infamous hockey mask stars for the first time
29 January 2014 | by veryape-887-913905See all my reviews

An Idyllic summer turns into a nightmare of unspeakable terror for yet another group of naive counsellors. Ignoring Camp Crystal Lake's bloody legacy, one by one they fall victim to the maniacal Jason who stalks them at every turn. Friday the 13th Part 3 will have you frozen with fear, as Jason finds his way into your living room!

This film starred: Dana Kimmell, Paul Kratka & Richard Brooker

In my opinion, this film was not bad compared to the other films, it was better than the first film but not as good as the second. After this film there was 4,5,6,7,8, Jason goes to hell, Jason x and Freddy vs Jason before the remake, yes it's a long series.

***/***** Good film
