Wha?! To me, excluding Jason X, 'Manhattan' had the most intentional humor.
I will defend 'Part VI' to the end. It brought back the campy, low-budge horror that 'Part III' had. Yes, it had some intentional humor, but it was intentional cheezy humor, and it knew that. To me, this is the second best in the series, because it's absolutely the least serious/ most fun, and the last with that campy "backwoods summercamp" with no other sub-plot gone-too-far feel that the series had. From then on it went to a Carrie rip-off "match-off", an overly 80s New York City rampage, and space. It was the last breath in the series if you ask me.
That being said, 'Part III' is without a doubt the best of the series. It's so damn fun, and what some view as its fault, I view as a triumph. Instead of concentrating on a storyline, it only concentrates on bad 3-D effects, which brings the tone of the film to a much more enjoyable level, instead of trying to outdo its previous installment.
