Friday the 13th - Part 6: Jason Lives

Pros: McLoughlin's direction and the addition of some humor are a welcome addition to a tired series.
Cons: Kids are in camp just so that McLoughlin can manipulate audience reaction by putting children in danger, Alice Cooper's closing theme is awful.

Friday the 13th Part 6: Jason Lives: Paramount Pictures
Rating: USA:R/ UK: 18/ Australia: R

Back in 1984, Paramount tried to end their popular series of slasher films by killing off lead villain and slasher icon Jason...

Pros: Great kills with just a touch of dark humor.
Cons: None of the censored material was included.

With Friday, June 13th coming up this Friday and with the remake coming out just around the corner (well, six months around the corner), I thought - "what the hell, time to watch 'em all again!" And of course since I'm an opinionated loudmouth, I thought ...

Pros: A great final battle, Jennifer Cooke and Thom Mathews
Cons: Pretty much everything before the final battle

When dealing with a horror icon such as Jason Voorhees, a director has a few difficult tasks to overcome in each film. For a start, you don’t want to disappoint the legions of fans the franchise already has, but you don’t want to bore them with the same ...

Pros: see below
Cons: see below

Film critic Alex Jackson suggests that humor in the Friday the 13th series should not be overt, but that the audience should have to search for it. I couldn't agree with him more. In the earlier installments, there are very funny moments and the ...

Pros: Humor, action, action
Cons: trimmed gore

I rented this since I’m in the process of watching the series. This is one of the higher rated Friday films out there. It had a good amount of humor and had more action instead of focusing on horror. The plot picks up from the fourth one as this one ...

Pros: A guy gets a bottle to the neck! C'mon! Creepy kids.
Cons: Jason VI. 'Nuff said.

*** This review contains spoilers! As if you didn't know how it's gonna end. In my teen years, I have become a self-professed horror fanatic. Now while I do love my scary films, like The Changelingand, yes, Nightmare On Elm Street, I'm a ...

Pros: Lots of Action and Energy with an intelligent script that ties in everything.
Cons: May be too humorous for some.

The Friday The 13th series remains one of the most popular (and hated) Horror film sagas out there today, with a seemingly neverending series of sequels featuring the saga's star killer Jason Voorhees hacking and slashing his way through most of the ...

Pros: A couple of good kills, decent plot for Jason movie
Cons: Some bad acting, no scary moments, low body count

Jason Lives! Most of the time, this would be a good thing, but this time I wish Jason would go back in his grave. In the sixth installment for the Friday the 13th series, Jason (played by C.J Graham) is back for more killing at Camp Forest Green AKA Camp ...

Pros: Reasonably slick and stylish
Cons: Still predictable as hell

After the woeful attempt at murder/mystery in Part 5, Jason Lives gets the series right back on track by resurrecting its iconographic anti-hero.
Thanks to some reasonably decent direction, a relatively witty script and plenty of inventive carnage,...

Pros: Jason at his best...killing!
Cons: Stupid bimbos, stupid policeman, stupid victums

I am glad that Tommy accidently brought Jason back to life simply because I like all of the Friday the 13ths and what would one be without Jason..Right?
Okay all of the characters with the exception of the children are so rediculously stupid. I mean...

Pros: Good production, Humor, better acting then earlier efforts, Ok soundtrack
Cons: Hardly any gore, was cut to all hell by the MPAA, not scary

Here we go my very first review! I have chose Friday the 13th part 6: Jason Lives as i am a big horror fan and i purchased the DVD yesterday so it is still fresh in my mind.

Well by now all of you are most probably aware who Jason Voorhees is,...

Pros: Great gore, good acting, funny.
Cons: It was too funny, and not enough scary.

I rented this film, on one of my favorite websites netflix.com. I wasn't sure if I had seen it or not, so I wanted to see it. It was good, but it had two many stupid people, like the cops, and the victums. It had good gore, and decent acting, and I ...

Pros: Tommy Jarvis is kinda cute!
Cons: Should have been a bit longer

This was a sweet addition to the Friday the 13th saga. I thought that it was very well done, it had an interesting plot. Unlike some of the others this movie seemed to have a bit of a story-line, with the whole Tommy Jarvis seeking revenge idea. I...

Pros: The Real Jason Vorhees Stands Up!
Cons: Not really any, unless your a victim!

A extra special thanks go out to the writers of this movie, for after I saw "The New Beginning" I was heartbroken. There was only one logical solution, and that was to bring back the Masked Man, Jason Vorhees! This movie continues the...

Pros: constant action, funny and terrifying, great actors!
Cons: a few unrealistic moments

This is by far the greatest sequal to Friday The 13th! There is tons of blood, lots of worms, and a whole lot of screaming!

Friday the 13th: Jason Lives stars Tommy Jarvis(Tom Mathews), who is the same person that was also in part 4...
