Also, as the article points out, if Alice in Part I and Rennie in "Jason Takes Manhattan" BOTH encountered "drowned little boy Jason" in the lake - Alice in 1979 and Rennie in the early-1990s, since "...Takes Manhattan" has a present-day of 2004, depending on who you talk to... anyways, they BOTH saw "Drowned Jason" in the lake, many years apart from each other. Rennie saw "drowned Jason" in the lake several years AFTER "Jason" as an adult started running around wearing the mask and wielding the machete. And yet, in the lake, he was a little boy either time, both to Alice and Rennie. So if he's a little boy in the lake, how is he ALSO a grown man in a hockey mask at the same time?
Ergo, what they encountered in either of their cases was the GHOST of Jason Voorhees, the little boy who drowned in the lake. Which in turn means that Jason Voorhees DIED, and in turn cannot simultaneously be the grown-ass man (men?) running around wearing masks and hacking campers to pieces.
This series is pretty batsh*t crazy when you think about it for more than two seconds.
No thought into it at all. AT ALL. Kinda sad.
