Director : Marcus Nispel
Running Time : 95 mins

When Whitney Miller (Righetti) goes missing for six weeks near an old abandoned holiday camp, her brother Clay (Padalecki) sets out in search of her, hoping that she is still alive, but what he discovers is that the camp is now home to a maniac who gets off on murdering anyone who comes near his home.

I was surprised to see the entire main cast killed off in the first twenty minutes in a sort of Mission : Impossible style, but the concept of people knowing about Jason Voorhees and simply trying to leave him to his own devices was refreshing. Unfortunately a lot of the characters were walking stereotypes, and I really wanted to slap the black guy at some points - I hate when people play the race card for no reason.
