Continuity mistake: Jason kills Burt and takes his belt, but the belt appears around Jason's waist before he has the chance to put it on.

Suggested correction: I watched a few clips and not a single scene where he takes Burt's belt. He takes his machete, but not his belt.

Visible crew/equipment: When Megan comes to pick up Jarvis and she is putting down the window, in it you can see the director's light. You can also see this when Megan is pulling the window up.

Plot hole: How did Tommy get Jason's mask? I don't think the police would let him keep it as a souvenir.

Suggested correction: This is not the same mask from the previous movie.

Yes, it is. It even has the ax mark from the end of the third movie.

Jukka Nurmi

It is a very different mask. The only things that match are the shape and the axe wound. The color changed from yellow to almond. The straps changed and snap on buttons that attached the straps were replaced with rivets. The half missing large red chevron has been replaced with a red triangle. The two smaller triangles under the eyes are gone. All the damage and chipped paint from part 4 is missing. This mask has more in common with the mask in Tommy's dream in part 5. My opinion - Tommy made it.

Continuity mistake: In the RV scene, all of the lights are on. After they are killed, its completely dark.

Continuity mistake: In Part V the mayor says Jason was cremated, which would mean there would be no body to "bring back" for this film.

Continuity mistake: Jason's machete disappears from his hand as he walks after Steven through the woods.

Other mistake: When Sissy gets up off the bed, if you look behind her you can see Jason going back towards the woods. He was supposed to be walking past their window which is why she saw his shadow.

Visible crew/equipment: At the beginning when the girl is in the mud Jason rams a pole through her head. At the moment when the camera backs up and you see Jason and the girl in the puddle, there is someone's head moving into the picture at the bottom right corner then moves away. You can see a shadow too.

Plot hole: When the sheriff and his deputy find the remains of Roy this is just a few yards away from Darren and Lizbeth's car. It's hard to believe that none of the five people in the paintball game came across the car or the bodies while they were all walking around.

Continuity mistake: When the sheriff first drives into the camp, the red and blue lights on top of his police car change position from shot to shot.

Plot hole: After Jason is "shocked" back to life, Tommy gets into his grave and is trying to get the metal pole out of Jason. During this time, Jason is looking directly at Tommy while he's trying to get the pole out. And Tommy looks right at Jason a couple times, so he should know he's alive, But Tommy doesn't realize he's alive until he grabs him from behind.

Other mistake: When Nikki gets pulled in the bathroom in the RV, she's screaming and kicking all over the place making the door come way out. Cort couldn't hear her because of the loud music but he saw the struggle and did nothing.

Continuity mistake: During the scene where Jason kills Court while Court is driving the motorhome, watch as Jason removes the knife from a sheath on his right side to kill Court. Then, the motorhome crashes and Jason exits. When Jason exits and stands on the motorhome, you can see the same exact knife in the sheath on his right side again.

Tommy: I went to go cremate Jason but I fucked up.
Deputy Rick: You got that right.

More quotes from Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives

Trivia: Director Tom McLoughlin revealed in a 2017 interview that he was approached at one point to write and direct the seventh installment of the series after "Jason Lives" proved popular. Knowing the studio wanted to make "Freddy VS Jason" at that point but couldn't due to legal rights, McLoughlin pitched another crossover idea - "Cheech and Chong Meet Jason", a farcical comedy starring the stoner comedy-duo in the vein of the old Universal "Abbot and Costello Meet..." films. The producer thought the film would do well with comedy audiences and was entertained by the idea, but ultimately decided it would alienate horror fans too much and it never moved forward.

More trivia for Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives

Question: Why did Jason go into the children's cabin the first and second times? And why did he just draw close to Nancy when she saw him?

JohnShel91

Chosen answer: The first and second visits are unexplained. However he drew close to Nancy to install fear in her.

Ssiscool

Answer: Yes, I don't believe he was trying to scare her; I think he was just looking at her out of genuine curiosity.

Answer: In all his attacks he's never killed children, it's like he's never seen them before. Plus, it's almost he trying to recall memories of what he's looking at. "Where have I seen these little people before."

The children might possibly remind Jason of his own days at the camp when he was a child, before he drowned.
