Trivia / Friday the 13th Part III

• California Doubling: The first of the series not filmed on the East Coast, but in the Golden State. It works for the most part, the license plates are correct, but the tracking shot when the gang picks up Vera reveals a palm tree.
• Creator Backlash: People involved in the making of this and other movies in the series have sometimes expressed their dislike for the dream sequence ending featuring the corpse of Mrs. Voorhees attacking Chris, due to the obvious fridge logic that Chris never met the woman and would have no idea who that is.
• Keep Circulating the Tapes: The movie itself isn't too difficult to watch. Trying to watch the movie in 3D, on the other hand, is a bit more difficult, as it's only been released once each on DVD and Blu-ray.
• The Other Darrin: Jason, who was played by Warrington Gillette, Steve "Dash" Daskawisz, Ellen Lutter, Jerry Wallace in the last film, is now played by Richard Brooker.
• Recycled Set: The set was later reused for In the Light of the Moon, a movie about Ed Gein.
