The sixth installment in the thunderingly mediocre "Friday the 13th" series features no nudity whatsoever. Also, no one falls
down while running, no one says, "I'll be right back," and there are no cars that won't start. Surely this is all an editing mistake. Surely the DVD will feature all the lost footage they filmed that somehow was omitted from the final product. Perhaps the plot will be located among the ruins, too. One is tempted to believe that the absence of such time-worn slasher-flick cliches will increase the quality of the film, but if one is tempted to believe that, one should watch the movie and realize that one is a moron. I mean, come on, one. For in the very first scene, Tommy Jarvis -- who has now been played by three actors in as many movies, making him the James Bond of slasher films -- heads out to the cemetery to dig up Jason, just to make sure he's actually dead. This seems like a reasonable thing to do, given Jason's penchant for not being dead. Except that in Part 5, it was emphatically declared by the foul-mouthed mayor of Crystal Lake that after Jason's death in Part 4, he had been cremated. The mayor even turned an ashtray upside-down on a desk to make this point.
