Friday the 13th Part 6: Jason Lives is almost a straight-up comedy. After five movies I suppose they just gave up on trying to scare people. The director and screenwriter have definitely planted the tongue firmly in the cheek for this installment. An example of the humor can be found when Jason decapitates three people in one foul swoop. There are a ton of little comedic touches like that which push Part 6 into horror/comedy territory. Return of the Living Dead alumni Thom Mathews has taken over as Tommy and does a fine job. Sadly, this is the last we'll see of Tommy and I believe that is a mistake. The character of Tommy Jarvis almost gives Jason a reason for killing. When they lose Tommy, the lose any meaning they may have had. Oh well, I should save those complaints for Part 7. As far as Part 6'es go, I enjoyed this one.
Best kill: The sheriff being bent backward.
