1989
High school seniors Rennie Wickham and Sean Robertson embark on a graduation cruise to New York City, unaware that the supernatural serial killer Jason Voorhees has stowed away on board. Jason systematically murders students and faculty throughout the ship, including Rennie's legal guardian Charles McCulloch, as the vessel makes its way towards Manhattan. Upon reaching New York City, Jason continues his rampage through the streets and subway system, pursuing Rennie and Sean. Rennie, who has a history of trauma related to drowning and visions of a young Jason, confronts the killer in the sewers, where she and Sean escape a toxic flood as a vision of young Jason drowns, leaving the adult Jason to seemingly revert to his child form and die in the sewage.

I managed to scrounge this shit from the game room and hallways. Grab what you want.
I refuse to discuss this ridiculous notion that a ghoul is terrorizing this ship.
Do you think I would use drugs, Mr. McCulloch? We were just exploring the ship.
