JASON LIVES! – FRIDAY THE 13th Pt. VI Midnights This Weekend at The Moolah
“The only way to kill Jason is to send him back to his original resting place where he drowned in 1957.”
JASON LIVES! – FRIDAY THE 13th Pt. VI screens Midnights this weekend (October 13th and 14th) at The Moolah Theater and Lounge (3821 Lindell Blvd, St. Louis, MO 63108) as part of Destroy the Brain’s monthly Late Nite Grindhouse film series.
By the summer of ’86, The Friday the 13th franchise was getting a bit tired, so it’s obvious that the makers of JASON LIVES – FRIDAY THE 13th Pt. VI tried to spice things up and succeeded. It’s one of the very best of the series. .
A grown up Tommy (now played by Thom Mathews) goes to the cemetery to destroy Jason’s corpse once and for all. The horror gods aren’t too thrilled about that, so when Tommy rams a spear through Jason’s chest, lightning crashes down and brings Jason back to life Frankenstein-style (Loved Tommy’s pal’s line “My heart can’t take much more of this!”) and ready to kill. Tommy runs to the police, but when he tells them about Jason they think he’s just a maniac trying to stir up trouble and throw him in jail. Soon the bodies start piling up (more yuppies than teens this time).
The pace of JASON LIVES – FRIDAY THE 13th Pt. VI is lightning fast, the kills are creative and bloody, the photography is way better than it should be for a cheap horror movie, there’s a couple of cool Alice Cooper songs, the humor is actually humorous rather than forced, the acting is decent and the main gal (Jennifer Cooke) may the hottest female of the entire series. JASON LIVES – FRIDAY THE 13th Pt. VI is a light-hearted, blood-drenched slasher film that’s fun to watch and that’s what Late Nite Grindhouse is all about.
