Phil (Friday the 13th)

Biography
While performing an autopsy on Jason who had been exploded into bits during an ambush by the FBI, he becomes mesmerized by Jason's still-beating heart, looking at it for a few seconds before chowing down on it like a full-course meal as Jason began to take possession of him. Jason, in Phil's body, claimed his first victim in Phil's assistant, Eric, who he stabbed with an autopsy probe while Eric insulted Jason's corpse by calling him a maggot head. On the way out, two security officers also began to gloat about Jason's death and him being a big pussy and were also killed.

Phil makes his way to Crystal Lake where three teenagers, Alexis, Deborah and Luke are partying at and having sex as they believe it to be perfectly safe to stay there since Jason is dead. While sleeping outside and peeing, Alexis is slashed to death with a scalpel by Phil who makes his way to the tent. Just as Deborah reaches an orgasm during sex, Phil impales her with a pole and pulls it upwards, severing her body at the chest and shoulder, killing Luke afterwards.

Outside of Joey B's Diner, Diana Kimble speaks with Officer Josh, who helps to give her love advice before he leaves with his girlfriend Edna. Phil rushes out of the bushes and slams the car door on Edna's head, crushing it and kidnapping Josh. Preparing to enter his new vessel, Jason (as Phil) gives Josh a clean shave. As it is revealed later that Jason's old vessels melt painfully before dying once he transfers, this also happened to Phil.
