The fifth installment in the Friday the 13th franchise follows a teenage Tommy Jarvis (John Shepherd), who still suffers from nightmares of the mass murderer Jason Voorhees—whom he killed as a child—and is institutionalized at a halfway house near Crystal Lake. However, Tommy has to face his fears when a new hockey-masked killer begins another series of violent murders.

Kidjupiter92 presents his definitive edition of the fifth installment of the Friday the 13th franchise.

My main Intentions were to remove any reference to things that have been removed from my edits of the films, making this version of the documentary work as a companion to my F13 [raymix] series. I've also removed some filler & odd comments.

Jason Voorhees returns with a new look, a new machete, and his same murderous attitude as he is awakened on a spaceship in the 25th century, once awake Jason begins killing the students and crew of the ship.

Jason Voorhees is dead - killed at the hands of 12 year old Tommy Jarvis. Now, 6 years later an institutionalized Tommy is plagued by nightmarish images of the psychopath he killed. He is taken to a Pinehurst Halfway House in an attempt to reintroduce him into society. However, when a spate of murders starts up around Pinehurst, it looks very much like the work of Jason. But Jason is dead... isn't he?

'Jason's Legacy' is an attempt to streamline a movie which suffers from characters who are introduced solely to be killed off straight away. The idea is to refocus the killings on the inmates of Pinehurst as much as possible. Heavy colour correction also attempts to paint the film in the same light as Joseph Zito's excellent preceding chapter, 'The Final Chapter'. Happy Friday the 13th!

This movie was a bomb. What should have been a good movie was turned in to a mess. I felt it needed a fanedit so we could have a good send-off to the original Friday the 13th's.

On Friday the 13th all hell breaks loose at Camp Crystal Lake as the counselors are killed one by one, by a brutal, unrelenting, mystery killer… YOU’RE ALL DOOMED!

steFANedit turns his attention to the lackluster reboot and crafts it into a sequel worthy to be part of the franchise.

With all this talk of a remake and talk of who the killer will be, I wanted to make an edit that is as close as possible to what I think the remake should be. I wanted the story to include Jason and Mrs. Voorhees, to display both of their legacies in one reasonably lengthened movie.
