* LargeHam: Sheriff Garris and Deputy Rick Cologne are maybe {{Main/Jerkass}} {{Rabid Cop}}s, but are nonetheless obnoxiously amusing with their tongue-in-the-cheek zingers.

* ProductPlacement: The woman Jason spears early in the film tries to buy him off with the contents of her wallet. An American Express card falls from her hand as she dies, and the camera lingers on it a lot longer than the scene probably merits. Word of God says that director Tom McLaughlin was hoping the movie would generate a call-and-response cult, and he added the extra time in hopes that fans would take the opportunity to shout "Don't leave home without it," American Express' then-famous advertising slogan.

Removed shout out to Nightmare on Elm Street - apparently this was a coincidence!

He was a dick to Tommy because Tommy insulted him. Garris was an asshole who deserved that


* AssholeVictim: Defied for Sheriff Mike Garris, who is a dick towards Tommy and would have qualified as the most cathartic vicim on Jason's body count, [[JerkassHasAPoint but he has a good reason to be]], his final actions before his death were PetTheDog moments which shows he is a FriendToAllChildren and he did go out trying to stop Jason with his death doubling as a HeroicSacrifice and a DyingMomentOfAwesome. Unlike most characters who bordered on this trope in the films, Garris is so far considered the [[ALighterShadeOfBlack least terrible]] due to him being overall a JerkWithAHeartOfGold.

Even though he kills several people over the course of the film, including the camp counselors, when he's in a cabin filled with sleeping kids, he doesn't lift a finger or harm them in any way, even the one who actually wakes up and sees him.

* LighterAndSofter: ''Part VI'' is a little less mean spirited and more of an AffectionateParody of the series and slasher films in general. It is also the only film in the series not to have any nudity. Also, Garris who fulfills the installment's role as the resident {{Jerkass}} and seemingly an AssholeVictim of Jason's body count actually come across as the [[ALighterShadeOfBlack least terrible compared to others in the film series]] due to his own [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold redeeming qualities]], his mostly [[JerkassHasAPoint justified reasons behind his attitude and bias]] and actually being one of the film's protagonists next to Tommy and his daughter Megan.

* {{Bowdlerize}}: Compared to a lot of other horror movies of the era, this one actually got off pretty lightly, as director Tom [=McLoughlin=] felt the previous sequels had relied too much on gore and nudity, and so deliberately de-emphasized those aspects here. The only major cut was to Sheriff Garris's death scene, which was originally much more graphic.

It was actually since Tommy and Megan locked him in a jail cell. After Garris' death at the hands of Jason, it can be assumed that Rick took over the vacated occupation as Sheriff.

And when he leans in closer, she makes a quiet prayer before Jason hears the police and walk away. She is still terrified when she sees he's gone.

* RealityEnsues: The reason why the Sheriff is so hard on Tommy is because the boy has a past of mental illness from his earlier encounters with Jason and the first thing Tommy did was yell that he some how resurrected a deceased serial killer and then attempts [[TooDumbToLive ''to steal one a gun'']] when the police refuse to listen to him, getting himself arrested. Later, when Sheriff decides to just kick Tommy out of town instead of imprisoning him, Tommy plows through a graveyard in an attempt to show the police that Jason's gone. We all know what's going on, but to the police, they're dealing with a possibly schizophrenic nut job who's having a breakdown and is going to get somebody hurt.
