* PaddleballShot: this movie is ''loaded'' with crap flying towards the camera, including but not limited to body parts, bloody, weapons, popcorn, yo-yos, and fruit. It's comically pointless when viewed in 2D.

* ThreeDMovieThreeDMovie: The first major studio entry in the short lived 1981--1983 3D fad, which was kicked off by the previous year's ''Comin' At Ya''. For what it's worth, this film was not only the best-received entry in that little fad, but was the most financially successful 3D film for 21 years, not losing that title until the release of ''Film/SpyKids 3D: Game Over''.[[note]](Of course, both films were thoroughly blown out of the water by the late-2000s/early-2010s 3D craze; the current top-grossing 3D film is a little sci-fi epic called ''Film/{{Avatar}}''...)[[/note]]

** During the news report being watched by Edna, mention is made of the "axe-wielding maniac" responsible. This can actually be seen as a subtle callback to the CoversAlwaysLie of the previous film; the theatrical posters depict Jason's silhoutte wielding an axe, but he never uses one in the film, instead using a spear, knife, machete, pickaxe and pitchfork.
