<P> Jason X (2002) marked Kane Hodder's last performance as Jason . The film starts off in 2010; Jason has returned after another unexplained resurrection . Captured by the U.S. government in 2008, Jason is being experimented upon in a research facility, where it has been determined that he has regenerative capabilities and that cryonic suspension is the only possible solution to stop him, since numerous attempts to execute him have proved unsuccessful . Jason escapes, killing all but one of his captors, and slices through the cryo - chamber, spilling cryonics fluid into the room, freezing himself and the only other survivor, Rowan (Lexa Doig). A team of students 445 years later discover Jason's body . On the team's spacecraft, Jason thaws from his cryonic suspension and begins killing the crew . Along the way, he is enhanced by a regenerative nanotechnology process, which gives him an impenetrable metal body . Finally, he is ejected into space and falls to the planet Earth 2, burning in the atmosphere . </P> <P> Freddy vs. Jason (2003) is a crossover film in which Jason battles A Nightmare on Elm Street's villain Freddy Krueger (Robert Englund), a supernatural killer who murders people in their dreams . Krueger has grown weak, as people in his home town of Springwood have suppressed their fear of him . Freddy, who is impersonating Jason's mother (Paula Shaw), resurrects Jason (Ken Kirzinger) from Hell and sends him to Springwood to cause panic and fear . Jason accomplishes this, but refuses to stop killing . A battle ensues in both the dream world and Crystal Lake . The identity of the winner is left ambiguous, as Jason surfaces from the lake holding Freddy's severed head, which winks and laughs . </P> <P> In the 2009 Friday the 13th reboot, young Jason (Caleb Guss) witnesses his mother's (Nana Visitor) beheading as a child and follows in her footsteps, killing anyone who comes to Crystal Lake . The adult Jason (Derek Mears) kidnaps Whitney Miller (Amanda Righetti), a girl who looks like his mother, and holds her prisoner in his underground tunnels . Months later, Whitney's brother Clay (Jared Padalecki) comes to Crystal Lake and rescues her . Eventually, Whitney uses Jason's devotion to his mother against him, stabbing him with his own machete while he is distracted when she appears . </P> <P> Jason first appeared outside of film in the 1982 novelization of Friday the 13th Part 3 by Michael Avallone . Avallone chose to use an alternate ending, which was filmed for Part 3 but never used, as the ending for his 1982 adaptation . In the alternate film ending, Chris, who is in the canoe, hears Rick's voice and immediately rushes back to the house . When she opens the door, Jason is standing there with a machete, and he decapitates her . Jason next appears in print in the 1986 novelization of Jason Lives by Simon Hawke, who also adapted the first three films in 1987 and 1988 . Jason Lives specifically introduced Elias Voorhees, Jason's father, a character that was slated to appear in the film but was cut by the studio . In the novel, instead of being cremated, Elias has Jason buried after his death . </P>
