Trivia
The house, barn, and lake were all purpose-built on location. The man-made lake wasn't properly sealed, and, subsequently, the water drained into the soil during the first week of filming.

Goofs
Jason has no wound in his shoulder, despite being stabbed deeply with the machete at the end of Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981), which took place the day before.

Quotes
Andy: Goddammit, Shelly, why do you always have to be such an asshole?
Shelly: Sorry. And I'm not an asshole, I'm an actor.
Andy: Same thing.

Crazy credits
Opening credits leap out at you in 3D.

Alternate versions
The new broadcast television print, as seen on Spike TV, not only removes all references to Debbie being pregnant, but it also removes many of Chuck and Chili's opening scenes to omit the minor marijuana references. In fact, the first time we see either of them is when the whole group is standing over the old man in the road.

Three-dimensional Jason!

The last of the scary ones, "Friday the 13th Part 3: 3D" is one of the best in the series. The plot does have some holes in it and sometimes the acting leaves a lot to be desired, but the interesting component of the film is its use of 3-D. Don't let the 3-D aspect fool you into thinking the movie is bad (as in "Jaws 3-D" & "Amityville 3-D"). The film is great; as far as these type of slasher flicks go. Highly recommended.
