History Trivia / JasonGoesToHellTheFinalFriday

** Erin Gray, who played Diana [[spoiler:Voorhees]] was reportedly disgusted [[spoiler:by the scene where the [[{{Squick}} Jason worm slides into her vagina before he’s reborn]]]], angered that they shot the scene without her acknowledgement or permission.

* ActingForTwo: Creator/KaneHodder plays both Jason in his regular form and the FBI agent the coroner-possessed Jason kills offscreen.

* FranchiseKiller: While the failure of [[Film/FridayThe13thPartVIIIJasonTakesManhattan the previous film]] had already caused Creator/{{Paramount}} to flog the franchise off to Creator/NewLineCinema, this film finished the job and threw the series into a hiatus that lasted for nearly a decade.

** Regarding the film's name, the ''Crystal Lake Memories'' book and documentary state that they couldn’t use the name ''Friday the 13th'' because Paramount only sold them the Jason Voorhees name, not the series trademark. However an earlier book detailing the making of the series, ''The Making of Friday the 13th'', says that it was deliberate on their part and that they could’ve easily called it ''Friday the 13th Part IX'', but chose to be creative with the name. For what it's worth, all Jason merchandise from 1993 on states "'Jason' and ''Friday the 13th'' are registered trademarks of New Line Cinema."

* BigNameFan: According to the Shout! commentary, Penny Marshall liked the film and gave Adam Marcus a note complimenting him for it.

* CameoProp:
** The [[Franchise/EvilDead Necronomicon]] originating from Creator/HPLovecraft's story "The Hound" and The Crate from its namesake story from ''Film/{{Creepshow}}'' can be spotted inside the Voorhees house, having been on loan from KNBFX due to them also working on ''Film/ArmyOfDarkness''.

* DearNegativeReader: A less aggressive example as even Adam Marcus is aware of the controversial opinions regarding his film, but on some occasions he has responded to those who hated the movie by saying that there’s 8 other movies that do the exact same thing and that they can go and watch those over bitching about Jason Goes to Hell.

** An incredibly odd example. Despite the Unrated Cut being available on previous [=LaserDisc=], VHS and even DVD releases, the official HD and Blu-ray release has omitted it in favor of the more tame R-Rated Cut.
** The Blu-ray ''itself'', along with ''Film/JasonX'' are only available on the out of print complete collection box set and hasn’t seen a standalone release in the US. The only way to get it is through the (already hard to find) region free release from Austria.
** Both the Unrated Cut and Blu-ray would be rescued when Shout! Factory released a Collector’s Edition in October of 2020.

* TroubledProduction: It's generally agreed that the film had a troubled shoot, though exactly how troubled and who was to blame remains disputed. Producer Sean S. Cunningham claims that first-time (at just 24 years old!) director Adam Marcus' inexperience caused him to badly mismanage the shoot, including letting through obviously flubbed scenes without retakes, shooting lengthy sequences entirely in slow-motion, and forgetting to film important lines of dialogue, requiring Cunningham to reshoot nearly half the movie. However, others involved with the production have claimed Cunningham's accounts to be grossly exaggerated, and instead place the blame on Cunningham himself for being a PointyHairedBoss during production. The one thing that all the accounts seem to agree on is that Marcus did not get on well in the slightest with lead actress Kari Keegan, who reportedly threatened to quit several times during filming. The end product did a ''little'' better than ''Jason Takes Manhattan'' at the box-office, though not by a whole lot (albeit it had a smaller budget, making it an overall more profitable venture).

* WordOfGod: Adam Marcus has said that, despite similarities in the concept, he didn’t based the film off ''Film/TheHidden'', nor were he or his team even aware of its existence during the writing process.

* AbilityOverAppearance: Originally, Joey B and Shelby were male and female respectively. After Rusty Schwimmer's audition for Joey put the filmmakers into hysterics, they cast her and retooled the characters.

* WordOfGod: Adam Marcus has said that, despite similarities in the concept, he didn’t based the film off ''Film/TheHidden'', nor was he or his team were aware of its existence during the writing process.

* FlipFlopOfGod: Over who came up with the body hopping plot. Adam Marcus states that it was Sean Cunningham’s idea to "get rid of that damn hockey mask" and to make it feel less like the past 7 sequels. Meanwhile, Sean Cunningham claims that Adam Marcus is a liar and that it was ''his'' idea to change up the status quo, as he felt fans didn’t want another standard Jason sequel.

* ChannelHop: The first film in the series to be produced by New Line Cinema, who would hold the rights until the [[Film/FridayThe13th2009 2009 reboot.]]

* CoversAlwaysLie: That strange metallic mask on the poster is not in the movie; Jason, when in his own body, still wears his familiar old one.

* TroubledProduction: Between director Adam Marcus' inexperience and producer Sean S. Cunningham's desire to make the film solely as a vehicle to set up ''Film/FreddyVsJason'', the film's production doesn't seem particularly pleasant.

** Original idea for a ninth ''Friday the 13th'' film was about Jason going to LA and being an OutsideGenreFoe for two rival street gangs who unite their forces to stop him.

** The book Necronomicon originating from Creator/HPLovecraft's story "The Hound" and The Crate from its namesake story from ''Film/{{Creepshow}}'' can be spotted inside the Voorhees house.

** Producer Sean S. Cunningham has spoken out against the film in recent years, citing the body hopping plot as a terrible idea that strayed too far from the series, but stuck with it at the time because he felt that fans didn’t want to see another Jason hack & slash film again. [[{{Understatement}} He was wrong]]. He also admitted that it was a bad idea to allow the very inexperienced Adam Marcus to direct the film.
