On the way, Tommy tries to make a run for Jason's grave but finds that the caretaker had covered it up to deny responsibility for it being dug up, and Hawes' body is buried in its place. Meanwhile, Garris decides to escort Tommy out of his jurisdiction due to his influence on Megan. Then he steals a machete from them, in the process discovering that he now possesses superhuman strength as a result of his resurrection.Īt Camp Forest Green, children arrive, and the teens do their best to run the camp without Darren and Lizabeth. In the woods, Jason happens upon a corporate paintball game he kills all five members (three via decapitation, the fourth via dismemberment and crushed the 5th's face into a tree). Tommy warns them about Jason, but as he is now considered an urban legend, they ignore the warnings, though Megan grows attracted to him. The following morning, Garris' daughter Megan and her friends Sissy Baker, Cort Andrews, and Paula Mott arrive at the police station to report Darren and Lizabeth missing. On the road, camp counselors Darren Robinson and Lizabeth Mott get lost looking for the Camp Forest Green and are stopped by Jason, who murders them both. His warning of Jason's return goes unheeded by Sheriff Mike Garris, who is aware of Tommy's institutionalization and thinks he is hallucinating Jason's return. Tommy flees to the sheriff's office to warn the police of Jason's return, only to be arrested and jailed. Jason proceeds to kill Hawes and don his hockey mask, which Tommy brought with him. After digging up Jason's corpse, Tommy experiences flashbacks of his last encounter with Jason and furiously impales his body with a metal fence post, just as two lightning bolts strike the post, causing Jason to come back to life as an immortal revenant. The pair visit Jason's grave during a thunderstorm, hoping to cremate the killer's body and finally end Tommy's nightmares.

The film was followed by Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood in 1988. Jason Lives is considered a fan favorite of the series, in addition to receiving positive notice from horror film historians. In the years since its release, its self-referential humor and numerous instances of breaking the fourth wall have been praised for prefiguring Kevin Williamson's Scream series. Jason Lives was the first in the series to receive some positive reception from critics since the original. The film also introduced metahumor, gothic horror, and action film elements, including shootouts and car chases, into the series. This version of Jason, an undead and more powerful superhuman, would become the standard depiction for the rest of the series. In resurrecting Jason, McLoughlin made him an explicitly supernatural force for the first time in the series. The original storyline had Tommy Jarvis become the series' new antagonist, but after the poor fan reception of A New Beginning, the producers instead brought Jason Voorhees back. While Jason returns to Crystal Lake for another killing spree, Tommy must overcome his fear of the masked killer that has haunted him for years, and find a way to stop him once and for all. Continuing on from the events of Friday the 13th: A New Beginning, the plot follows Tommy after he accidentally resurrects mass murderer Jason Voorhees (Graham) while attempting to destroy his body to ensure he will not return. It is the sixth installment in the Friday the 13th franchise and the last one to feature Tommy Jarvis (Mathews) as the protagonist.
