The timeline in the "Friday the 13th" movies is awkward for the viewer. After screenwriter Victor Miller wrote the original movie, Ron Kurz took over the writing of the sequel a year later. The lengthy prologue which runs twelve minutes long, (the longest in horror cinema), re-introduces Alice Hardy, (Adrienne King), several months later. Hardy, who is suffering from nightmares from her experience at Camp Crystal Lake, struggles to get rid of the effects of her attack by Jason Voorhees, (Ari Lehman), and his insane mother, Pamela Sue Voorhees, (Betsy Palmer). A little girl jumps in a deep puddle, as a stalker-a grown up Jason Voorhees-(Steve Dash)-enters Alice's house through an open door. She then hears a noise which turns out to be a cat that jumps through a window. She opens the fridge door, and sees Pamela Voorhees's body. She screams. Earlier she calls her mother. She tells her that she's trying to move on with her life, and drawing as well. The phone rings, and she hears breathing.
Alice then hears a noise.
Then she is attacked with an ice pick by Jason Voorhees, as the movie begins.
