Quotes:

  • [Rowan meets Kay-Em 14, the crew's technodroid]
    Rowan: Oh, my God. She looks so real.
    Kay-Em 14: I AM real.
     
  • Rowan: I don't think he's out there...
    Janessa: Why don't you just stick your head out and have a peek?
     
  • [Jason approaches Professor Lowe and reaches out for a machete sitting next to him]
    Professor Lowe: [scared] Oh, you want your machete!
    Professor Lowe: [laughs it off] Shit, it's yours! Take it! Just remember who got it back for ya...
    [Jason stares at him]
    Professor Lowe: [calling out] Guys, it's okay! He just wanted his machete back!
     
  • Brodski: It's gonna take more than a little poke in the ribs to put this old dog down.
    [Jason stabs him through the chest again]
    Brodski: OK, that ought to do it.
     
  • Crystal Lake Campers: We love pre-marital sex!
     

Trivia:

  • The spaceship in the movie is called "Grendel", named after the villain in the famous narrative poem Beowulf. Grendel was a monstrous killer.
     
  • Screewnwriter Todd Farmer based much of Jason X on Alien, even naming one of the characters (who he would incidentally play) Dallas, after Tom Skerritt's character in the Ridley Scott film.
     
  • It had four different U.S. release dates before it was finally released.
     
  • In the Television series Andromeda, Lexa Doig plays, among other roles, a robot and Lisa Ryder a human. In Jason X, their roles are reversed.
     
  • The character Janessa was originally named Jessica, after producer Sean S. Cunningham's sister.
