Watch Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan
A ship en route to New York City pulls unstoppable supernatural thug Jason Voorhees along for the ride. Jason eventually sinks the boat and kills many of the students on it, but many of them escape to Manhattan. Look out New York, here comes hell in a hockey mask.
This is easily the most disappointing of the original...movies - which is quite an achievement when you consider that the overall quality of the franchise was hardly high enough to raise expectations to a level that would allow for disappointment.
Among the passengers is a bright girl who's having visions of a drowning boy, her smarmy guardian, her concerned teacher, a boyfriend whose soon-to-be-late father is the ship's captain, and assorted high school stereotypes.
Not even remotely scary, and on top of that less than 1/3 of the film takes place in New York. False advertising, I say!

It's actually quite amazing that a film titled Jason Takes Manhattan never really takes place in Manhattan. At least the Muppets kept their titular promise to bite the Big Apple.
