Writer-director Tom McLoughlin’s Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives turns 35 this year. And Kenny Caperton’s On-Set Cinema will celebrate the anniversary by screening the classic at the real-life camp where it was shot this August.
Patrons will spend two nights in the cabins at Hard Labor Creek State Park. And there will be a tour of the locations including both the classic cemetery and Camp Crystal Lake / Camp Forest Green. McLoughlin will be present for a Q&A.

Here’s the official description: Fans will enjoy an entire weekend of summer camp – shared cabin camping with bunk beds, games (egg toss, corn hole, badminton, tug-of-war, board games, video games, and more!), campfires with friends, roasting marshmallows and making s’mores, watching VHS horror movies on tube TVs, swimming and canoeing in Crystal Lake and of course a complimentary outdoor screening of JASON LIVES by the lake – you’ll be able to watch the movie while on the pier or in the water! …but remember campers, Jason will be watching!
The event will place from August 13th – 15th and August 15th – 17th.
Writer-director Tom McLoughlin’s flick finds Tommy Jarvis (Thom Mathews) escaping from a mental institution to dig up the body of Jason Voorhees (C.J. Graham). But, before he can annihilate the infamous hockey-masked murderer, a freak accident resurrects Jason from the dead. And the terror begins anew.
The cult classic sports a fair-enough 50% approval rating over on Rotten Tomatoes. The Critics Consensus reads: Friday the 13th: Part VI – Jason Lives indeed brings back ol’ Vorhees, along with a sense of serviceable braindead fun.
