Tear Jerker / Friday the 13th (2009)

Go To

  • Richie is stuck in a bear trap and Forced to Watch as his girlfriend burns alive, with her growing terror and agony being just as awful to watch as his.
  • Clay has a sense of misery and guilt about how he abandoned Whitney to take care of their dying mother while she was a teenager, and now has to face the fact that Whitney may be dead too.
  • Jason has a flashback to his mother's death and attacks Whitney in a rage, but stops when he sees his mother's locket hanging around her neck. Whitney tries to use the opportunity to talk him down; when she calls him by his name, he seems downright startled, as if it is the first time in years anyone has spoken to him like that.
  • Jenna's unexpected death. Clay is clearly devastated when he sees her get impaled by Jason's machete, and he repeatedly says "No!" upon seeing it. His sister Whitney has to physically pull on him away.
  • The remaining survivors listening to a wounded Lawrence begging for help before he gets finished off while helpless to do anything, as they know Jason is just out there waiting to pounce, with Bree curling into a fetal position and crying by the end of it.
