Friday the 13th Part VI (1986) 8/10

So continues my journey through the Friday films and I've taken a stop at one of the best ones so far!
Friday part 6 starts off where part 5 leaves off with Tommy in search of Jason. He accidentally resurrects Jason and must stop him before its too late! So we finally get to see zombie Jason or maybe inhuman Jason. Thus far he's really just been resilient psycho killer, but not anymore friends. He's a bonafide demon from hell here to kill Tommy once again.

The film is fast paced and the body count is high. Really high. In fact this one has the highest body counts so far in the series. Beyond that the deaths are all unique and pretty gory. We've got death by tree branch, death my machete skewer, death by head crush, heart rip, etc etc. Hopefully someday we'll see the full uncut version of the film before the MPAA hacked it up.

This is such a great Friday film. It revamps the tired plot found in 1-4 while not sucking like part 5. If you're going to watch a Friday film, make this one a must see.

Gore - High
Nudity - none
Overall - 8/10
