Some of it is a bit too goofy – I could do without the overly slapstick antics of the goofy paintballer who finds out a paintball gun is not much use against Jason – but the comedy is still an appreciated aspect of the film, and it's nice to finally have a Friday the 13th film where someone says they've seen enough horror movies to drive away from the scary guy in the mask standing in the road.

Slant Magazine - Jeremiah Kipp
Though it has the requisite murder every 10 minutes or so (including victims snapped in half and punched through the heart, and a triple decapitation), Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives feels more like a harbinger for the Scream series with its self-aware jokiness.

Variety - Unnamed
Writer-director Tom McLoughlin, who made the scare entry One Dark Night, puts comic spin on some of the predictable material and turns in a reasonably slick performance under the circumstances.

Washington Post - Paul Attanasio
When he crushes a patrolman's head between his hands, you think you're watching a happy campesino lusty for coconut milk; when he skewers a depraved camp counselor with a knife in the temple, he is the happy barbecuer on a sunny Sunday afternoon. "Soup's on!" he might have cried. Then he tears a girl's head clean off. Well, the head probably wasn't doing her much good anyway. [6 Aug 1986, p.D10]

Chicago Tribune - Gene Siskel
The murderous Jason is back in the latest chapter of the most offensive series in film history, unless Burt Reynolds makes three more ``Smokey and the Bandit`` pictures real quick.
