Quotes 

• Mrs. Voorhees : Did you know a young boy drowned the year before those two others were killed? The counselors weren't paying any attention... They were making love while that young boy drowned. His name was Jason. I was working the day that it happened. Preparing meals... here. I was the cook. Jason should've been watched. Every minute. He was... he wasn't a very good swimmer. We can go now, dear.

• Alice : Who are you?

  Mrs. Voorhees : Why I'm... I'm Mrs. Voorhees, an old friend of the Christys'.

• Mrs. Voorhees : [high voice]  Kill her, Mommy! Kill her! Don't let her get away, Mommy! Don't let her live!

  [normal voice] 

  Mrs. Voorhees : I won't, Jason. I won't!

• Jason : [in flashback]  Help me! Help! Help, Mommy! Help! Help, Mommy! Mommy, help!

  Mrs. Voorhees : I am, Jason. I am.

• Mrs. Voorhees : You see, Jason was my son, and today is his birthday...

• Mrs. Voorhees : You let him drown! You never paid any attention. Look what you did to him.

  [pulls out a large hunting knife] 

  Mrs. Voorhees : Look what you did to him!

• Mrs. Voorhees : Come, dear. It'll be easier for you than it was for Jason.

• Mrs. Voorhees : She can't hide; no place to hide.

• Mrs. Voorhees : Kill her, Mommy, kill her. She can't hide, no place to hide.

• Mrs. Voorhees : [seeing Brenda's dead body]  Oh, my Lord! So young. So pretty. Oh, what monster could have done this?

  Alice : Bill's out there.

  Mrs. Voorhees : Oh, God, this place! Steve should never have opened this place again, there's been too much trouble here!
