Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives


Friday the 13th Part VI Jason Lives also known on screen as Jason Lives Friday the 13th Part VI is a 1986 slasher film, the sixth film in the Friday the 13th film series. The film was written and directed by Tom McLoughlin. Although the original concept called for Tommy Jarvis, the protagonist of parts IV and V, to become the new villain, the poor fan reception of Friday the 13th Part V A New Beginning prompted the producers to bring back Jason Voorhees as the series antagonist. In resurrecting Jason, McLoughlin made Jason an explicitly supernatural force for the first time in the series, depicting him as being raised from the dead via electricity this version of Jason, an undead serial killer and more powerful superhuman, would become the standard depiction for the rest of the franchise, until 2009s remake. The film likewise broke with many other series conventions, introducing metahumor and action film elements including shootouts and car chases.
