Camp Crystal Lake is jinxed. Annie:
Oh, terrific. Not you, too! You sound like your crazy friend back there, Ralph. The Truck Driver:
Did Christy ever tell you 'bout the two kids murdered in '58? Boy drowning in '57? Buncha fires. Nobody knows who did any of 'em. In 1962, they was gonna open up... the water was bad.

He's causing problems enough
for your boss with all that talk.
00:00:08.881 --> 00:00:11.634
Goddamn nuisance.
00:00:35.699 --> 00:00:38.702
- He tell you anything?
- Who?
00:00:38.869 --> 00:00:41.497
Your boss. Steve Christy.
00:00:41.664 --> 00:00:45.501
I'll be cooking for
50 kids and 10 staff.
00:00:45.668 --> 00:00:48.565
Campers are mostly
inner-city children.
00:00:48.591 --> 00:00:51.198
No, I mean about
what happened.
00:00:53.968 --> 00:00:55.928
No.
00:01:00.766 --> 00:01:03.852
Come on. There's something
you're not telling me.
00:01:06.146 --> 00:01:11.402
- Quit. Quit now.
- Quit? Why would I want to quit?
00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:14.697
Camp Crystal Lake is jinxed!
00:01:14.905 --> 00:01:19.999
Terrific. Not you too. You sound
like your crazy friend back there.
00:01:19.999 --> 00:01:24.001
Well, maybe. Did Christy tell you about
the two kids murdered in '58?
00:01:25.999 --> 00:01:30.129
Boy drowning in '57? A bunch of fires?
00:01:30.001 --> 00:01:32.464
Nobody knows who did any of them.
00:01:32.631 --> 00:01:37.999
In 1962, they were going to open up.
The water was bad.
00:01:37.511 --> 00:01:40.723
Christy will end up like his folks:
Crazy and broke.
00:01:40.889 --> 00:01:45.001
He's been up there a year fixing up that
place. Must have dropped $25,000.
00:01:45.999 --> 00:01:49.857
And for what? Ask anybody.
00:01:50.524 --> 00:01:54.003
- Quit!
- I can't.
00:01:54.999 --> 00:01:57.999
Dumb kids. Know-it-alls.
00:01:58.999 --> 00:02:01.066
Just like my nieces.
Heads full of rocks.
00:02:01.869 --> 00:02:07.583
- You're an American original.
- I'm an American original.
00:02:07.075 --> 00:02:13.955
- Dumb kid.
- At least I'm not afraid of ghosts.
00:02:13.756 --> 00:02:15.215
[CHUCKLES]
00:02:33.001 --> 00:02:37.655
- Take care of yourself.
- No sweat. Thanks for the lift.
