Freddy vs. Jason

Plot[edit | edit source] Having been trapped in Hell since his last defeat, Freddy Krueger can no longer invade children's dreams. His powers have been weakened by the adults of Springwood, who have erased all evidence of his existence and institutionalized anyone who dreams of him at Westin Hills Psychiatric Hospital, where they are administered the dream suppressant Hypnocil. Seeking to escape, Freddy finds Jason Voorhees, who was also dragged into Hell. Using the last of his power, he resurrects Jason by assuming the form of Jason's mother Pamela, and manipulates him into carrying out a massacre on Elm Street so that the renewed fear will restore his strength. Teenager Lori Campbell lives with her widowed father. While hanging out with her friends Kia and Gibb, Gibb's emotionally abusive boyfriend Trey, and his friend Blake, Jason murders Trey before killing Blake and Blake's father. The police assume Freddy has returned and Lori overhears them say his name. Lori's ex-boyfriend, Will Rollins, and his friend Mark Davis—patients at Westin Hills due to prior encounters with Freddy—see a news report about the killings and escape to warn her. That night, Lori and her friends attend a rave in a cornfield. Freddy attempts to kill a passed-out Gibb in a nightmare, but Jason kills her in the real world and goes on a rampage at the rave. Freddy realises that Jason's indiscriminate killings deprive him of victims. The survivors flee with school nerd Charlie Linderman and stoner Bill Freeburg. Will reveals that he witnessed Lori's father killing her mother and believes he was institutionalised to prevent him from revealing the truth. Soon after, Mark is killed in a dream by Freddy, who burns "Freddy's Back" into his body to spread fear further. Suspecting his colleagues are concealing the truth about Freddy, new Deputy Scott Stubbs assists the teens. Lori falls asleep and is attacked by Freddy, inadvertently pulling a fragment of him into the real world when she awakens. After learning about Hypnocil, the group attempts to steal it from Westin Hills to suppress their dreams. Freddy possesses Bill and disposes of the drug, while Jason kills Stubbs during the ensuing chaos. The possessed Bill then tranquilises Jason, but before the sedative takes full effect, Jason slashes him in half. The teens devise a plan to draw Freddy out into the real world and force him to fight Jason, transporting the unconscious Jason to Camp Crystal Lake. In the dream world, Freddy tortures Jason by exploiting his fear of drowning. Lori enters the dream to confront Freddy, learns that he murdered her mother, and that Will had misinterpreted what he saw, as her father had been attempting to wake her. She awakens and pulls Freddy into reality as Jason rises at Camp Crystal Lake and attacks. Charlie attempts to fend off Jason to save Kia but is thrown into a wall and fatally impaled. As Freddy and Jason battle across the campgrounds, Kia distracts Freddy to allow Lori and Will to escape, but is killed by Jason. Freddy gains the upper hand against Jason until Lori intervenes, enabling Jason to punch through Freddy's torso. Freddy drives Jason's machete into his side, and Jason tears off Freddy's gloved arm. Lori and Will ignite the dock, triggering an explosion that sends both killers into the lake. Freddy resurfaces and attempts to kill them, but Jason impales him with his severed arm before falling back into the lake. Lori then beheads Freddy with Jason's machete. The following morning, Jason emerges from the lake holding Freddy's severed head, which winks and laughs.
