After the failure of Part V, Jason Voorhees, (C J Graham), is in his grave in the old Crystal Lake cemetery. Nineteen year old Tommy Jarvis, (Thom Mathews), and his friend Allen Hawes, (Ron Palilo), doesn't think that the hockey masked killer is alive. As a consequence, Jarvis becomes totally irrational in his thinking. When they head into the cemetery during a lightning storm, some teenagers head to Jason's grave. They dig the body up, and are killed when Jason opens his worm-filled mask, and eyes. And using his machete. Then he attacks Allen. Tommy flees, as Jason walks through the dark woods, and sets up the movie.

Part VI was written and directed by Tom McLoughlin, who creates a sense of humour in the movie. Also, with the birth of VHS videocassettes in the nineteen eighties, and early nineteen nineties, (before DVD, Blue Rays, and 4k movies were invented, and the Internet, with Netflix), as well as You Tube, the sixth "Friday the 13th" movie wasn't released in Australian cinemas. And with a heavy metal soundtrack by Alice Cooper, the movie succeeded in Jason Voorhees attacking more teenage and child campers in the process, and other adults as well.

When Tommy storms into the Sheriff's office stating that Jason Voorhees is alive, Sheriff Garris, (David Kagen), and the Deputy Sheriff Rick Cologne, (Vincent Guataferro), decide to shove him into the jail cell to 'cool off'. Also, Camp Crystal Lake has been re-named "Camp Forest Green", because of the murders. The Sheriff's teenage daughter Megan Garris, (Jennifer Cooke), is one of the camp counsellors, with her friends: Sissy, (Renee Jones); Paula, (Kerry Noonan); Cort, (Tom Fridley); and Nikki, (Darcy DeMoss), who are bewildered at the news of Jason Voorhees. In short, Megan awaits for the group of campers who arrive by bus, as the killer stalks them.

When the Sheriff lets Tommy go, he tells them that Jason really is alive in the cemetery. But the Deputy Sheriff aims a red laser gun at his head. Tommy leaves town, and heads to the campgrounds, to search for Jason with the help of Megan. At night, a couple named Darren, (Tony Goldwyn), and his girlfriend Lizbeth, (Nancy McLoughlin), makes light of horror movies when they see Jason in the middle of the road. But it's no joke when he damages the car, and kills them. Afterwards, he heads to the woods. Cort then tells the campers about different types of rocks, and other things. Then three paintball players, Larry, (Alan Blumenfeld), Stan, (Mathew Faison), discuss not being splatted with paint, when Katie, (Ann Ryerson), hits them. They are enraged, then are killed by Jason. Afterwards, at night time, Cort and Nikki make out in the van. Jason attacks the couple as they make out, as the song 'Teenage Frankenstein', is played on the soundtrack. Suddenly the van is torched, and set alight. Jason then heads back to camp where a girl is scared of Jason. Sissy and Paula tell her to close her eyes, and he would leave the cabins. In the end, as they're also attacked, it is up to Megan and Tommy to battle Jason Voorhees in the lake, while the Sheriff, Deputy Sheriff, and other Crystal Lake police officers die in the process.

Harry Manfredini returns to do the movie's score, (like the other five "Friday the 13th" movies). In the end, Tommy battles Jason on the lake, as he wraps a chain around his head. And, as the water burns around them, Jason is strangled, then falls downward into the dark, deep waters. Tommy struggles to breathe, as Megan performs CPR. Then they flee with the campers, unaware that Jason has opened his eyes, and setting up for yet another sequel.'
