Jason Lives - Friday the 13th Part VI Audience Reviews

Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

Stevieboy666 Tommy Jarvis decides to dig Jason up from the grave, only for him to be brought back to life by a lightning strike, Frankenstein style! And thank goodness he did because this is an excellent entry in the series. This film is notable for two things - it introduced humour & also in bringing Jason back from the dead he is virtually indestructible. In Alice Cooper it also has a great soundtrack. There's no nudity here & the gore has been toned down but it has a very high body count with many inventive kills, it's fast paced, well acted & is hugely enjoyable. Sadly the series went down hill from here...

ClassicHorror Jason lives 1986 is the best Friday the 13th in my opinion. It has everything a Jason movie needs, the intense Jason scenes, the sound FX, the music, the acting, the filmography, the locations, everything ties together to make a great movie.This is the scariest Friday the 13th by far. None of the others even come close.One reason why Jason lives is so scary and serious is because while the movie does have some comedy to it, none of the comedy or jokes are aimed at Jason. So it keeps Jason scary and nothing to be laughing at about him.10/10, plus how can you not like that dudes ripped up jeans, or the RV scene!

a_chinn I don't think I ever saw this entry in the long running series before and was pleasantly surprised by it's tongue-in-cheek nature. This film wisely abandoned the dumb possession storyline from the prior film and brings back Jason Voorhees proper. This film also wisely returns to it's original Crystal Lake setting. What makes this film work better than others is that writer/director Tom McLoughlin fully embraces the predictable, formulaic nature of slasher films (years before Kevin Williamson did the same with "Scream") and ends up making a rather meta entry into the series. The story here picks up with the Tommy Jarvis character, this time played by Thom Mathews from "Return of the Living Dead" fame, trying to get rid of Jason's body once and for all, but ends up bringing him back to life. You can probably guess what Jason then wants to do the rest of the film. There's a lot of good laughs and also some decent suspenseful sequences and also an ending that seems to leave things quite open for many many more Friday the 13th films. Tony Goldwyn made his film debut in a small part as one of Jason's many victims and Ron "Horshack" Palillo has a small role as well. Harry Manfredini again provides the Ch Ch Ch Ah Ah Ah music.

Eric Stevenson This entry in the series actually started off pretty well. It seemed the movie was taking shots at itself with the one guy looking at the camera and blaming the audience for considering this entertainment. A girl says that she knows that those wearing masks in horror movies are not friendly. I heard that this might have been trying to be a self parody of the series. By the second half, it just abandons it. We get the same scenes of the kills over and over and it's rarely interesting. I will at least give this film credit for somewhat trying to be a good movie. The makeup is quite impressive. I really do like Tommy Jarvis here as it's interesting for a series with so few recurring characters to have a protagonist.It seriously probably is the second best movie in the series next to the original. It does kind of set up the mythology well. What fails is that it doesn't make any sense. In the previous movie, it was said that Jason's body was already cremated, but here it isn't. Maybe that's more the fault of the previous movie, which really is worse. There have actually been three serial killers at Camp Crystal Lake (or Forest Green) at this point and it's simply stupid that they would try to suppress information on it. He's not Freddy Krueger. He doesn't become stronger the more you believe in him. Speaking of which, there's actually a girl here named Nancy who has a bad dream. Maybe it's the same Nancy from the Nightmare movies? I guess if you're really bored you can check this one out. This is a fan favorite and I really can see why. **
