Roy Burns

Roy Burns (played by Dick Wieand when unmasked, but mostly played by Tom Morga) is a fictional character in the Friday the 13th sequel Friday the 13th: A New Beginning. In the film, the character copies the murder style of Jason Voorhees in order to avenge the death of his son (similar to Mrs. Voorhees) who was killed by another patient at Pinehurst halfway house. Until his death at the hands of Tommy Jarvis, many assumed that the killings were being carried out by Jason himself. In fact, when the killer made his appearance, he was wearing a hockey mask as well. Burns did not copy Jason's attire correctly, however; The marks on his hockey mask were blue instead of red, and instead of the "blue collar" clothes that Jason wore, his were actually a mechanic suit, which are worn by another famed movie murderer, (Michael Myers from Halloween).

It's interesting to note that unlike Jason, Burns was mortal, and yet inexplicably withstood the blow from a very large tractor.

Burns seemed to have an affinity for eyes, as many of his victims had their eyes gouged out in some manner.

Burns' actions almost sent Tommy Jarvis to take up copycat killings himself, but was stopped by unknown means. To date, nothing more on Burns has been mentioned, although he may have been influential to a police officer in Freddy vs. Jason for thinking the murders were the work of a copycat and not Jason himself.
