Jason gets revived by a lightning (hmm...that's original) and wakes up really angry and a lot of innocent bystanders get to feel his wrath. It's up to Tommy Jarvis (again) to take a stab at disposing of Jason.
After the horrible 5th entry this one comes as a real treat. Old Jase is back and the Friday series are back on. Little more humor this time around, which annoyed many but I dig it. The movie's brutal and very violent but not as gory as the first four films and that's a miss. The music is pretty good, with that Alice Cooper song in the end credits a nice touch.
All in all, a solid Friday sequel which knocks the socks of part 5 and entertains fans of the series.

Tommy returns to the grave to make sure Jason is dead and accidentally brings him back to life. Now it's up to Tommy to stop Jason's mindless killing and put him back where he belongs.
My opinion OK this movie is a DEEP sequel and to tell the truth it isn't expected to be Great or even average to that but to my surprise I actually enjoyed this film more so than I did the first. The death scenes were sorta clever and Jason to me looked at his best. The 1st scene was a little stupid though coming back through lightening get real. From then on was kewl and Jennifer Cooke's performance was pretty good as well. I wish they showed her boobs though but sadly they didn't have any cleavage in this film . I know shocking isn't it.
Also the way they killed Jason was pretty original. Having little kids there made it even better. Although this is the best in the series in my opinion its still just another Friday the 13th sequel there nothing special about at all and to tell the truth it had it shouldn't have ever been made just like all the rest of the F13 films after part 3. To tell the truth like Freddy said in the features on the DVD Jason is very boring and slow. He just walks *Hack hack* and then your dead hes not ruthless as most call hes teddy bear compared to the other killers and how they torture their victims.
People really like Jason for some reason I don't know why but I can't stand him I'm more of a Myers fan thank you very much. Although I don't like Jason this film wasn't so bad.

Great and certainly the best opening to a Jason film we are given a FRANKENSTEIN-like beginning from writer/director Tom McLoughlin. Tommy Jarvis (Thom Matthews) and his buddy Allen Dawes (Ron Palillo) go to the Crystal Lake Cemetery or rather the Lake Forest Green Cemetery being renamed to erase any memory of Jason Vorhees. There Jason is brought back to life, but now he is much stronger as he is like a zombie. Tommy then goes to Sheriff Garris (David Kagen) who puts him in the slammer believing what he is hearing from the boy doesn't make any sense.
No give or lulls in the action. In my opinion McLoughlin knew what the Jason fans wanted. My favourite Tommy Jarvis is Corey Feldman, but Matthews does a fine job as the older, more troubled Jarvis. They did sort of throw away certain elements of part V with Tommy like his need for meds and seeing Jason everywhere. In the end though you have to be ready to smirk at the story. Very meta, McLoughlin added more humour than any other Jason, and filled with some good laughs.
Since Jason (this time played by C.J. Graham) is back there are lots of kills and much more senseless murders. Unfortunately, it also adds to much more senseless sequels as this is the Jason going forward. The lumbering, never running, very big, but also not near as scary Jason.
If you felt dissatisfied with part V, I would say tune into this part as Jason is back and it is a really good return. One of the better entries in the series. Alice Cooper has 3 songs in the soundtrack including the title song "He's Back (The Man Behind the Mask)". Also starring Jennifer Cooke and Tony Goldwyn.

I love the Friday the 13th series, and after watching them all countless times over the years I have to say that Part 6 is my all time favorite, plain and simple, it is just awesome. Tom McLoughlin (he did another favorite of mine, One Dark Night) does an excellent job directing and really piles on the atmosphere (the opening shot of the misty forest is creepy) and Thom Mathews is the best actor to play Tommy because he is very heroic, attempting to save the lives of those around him and trying to kill Jason once and for all. Jennifer Cooke is appealing as the blonde (aren't they always blonde?) lead girl and CJ Graham's Jason is, plain and simple, awesome. Full of thrills, action, humor, gore murders, and Jason, what more could you ask for? This one is the best, no doubt about it.
Maybe even the most entertaining of the sequels, part VI is the last one to be good, and should have been the last one in general.
Like previous ones, there are some memorable scenes, and it is a lot gorier than the one before. Also, much more interesting kills. There are some funny scenes too, but not enough to be considered a comedy, which is a good thing in this case. Unlike previous few endings, this one was pretty good!

- TriviaAside from Alice, who has a minor role in the second film as well as the starring role in the first, Tommy Jarvis is the only recurring protagonist in the series, albeit played by three different actors.
- Goofs(at around 39 mins) Cort turns up the Alice Cooper song, but the volume remains the same.
- Crazy creditsFirst end credits to feature a song and not the Friday the 13th theme music.
- Alternate versionsThere's a slightly more graphic death of one of the officers. In the original, Jason squeezes the officer's head until you hear it crunch, but in the alternate death you see some blood gush from his head also.
