That's the Blu-Ray set, yeah? Does that have all the unrated films or are some of them rated? Been wanting to get that damn series already but don't know if I should stick with the DVD set or the BD set.

Personally I never owned the films before so this set was worth it for me. The transfers are good and that's surprising because some of them are double disc and still have all the special features ported over. The first film is unrated , but the rest of the series are the r-rated versions. I've read the uv code has uncut versions , but I'll probably sell that. So it's a tough sell to someone who owns the dvds unless they really want to see the film on high def. The collection tin is cool. I'm not a fan of the carboard packaging though. I'll probably get slim cases and put them in there.


DVD review has a good rundown:

  • No new special features were created specifically for this collection.
  • Save for the artwork, the discs featuring Friday the 13th, Friday the 13th Part II and Friday the 13th Part 3 are the same discs that were previously released by Paramount Home Entertainment; Friday the 13th is still the uncut version and Friday the 13th Part 3 is still presented in 2D and red and blue anaglyph 3D.
  • Save for the artwork the disc for Friday the 13th (2009) is the same as the previous release from Warner Home Video in 2009.
  • Freddy Vs. Jason features a revamped menu and has had its audio upgraded to a DTS-HD Master Audio 6.1 track, but everything else is the same as the previous Warner Home Video release from 2009.
  • Only the R-rated cut of Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday is included--there is no unrated version in this collection; the commentary track found on the DVD is also absent.
  • The "Killer Bonus" DVD of extras included in the set is the same disc that was included with the "From Crystal Lake To Manhattan" boxed set released in 2004, right down to the disc artwork and copyright stamp.
  • The "From Crystal Lake To Manhattan" commentary tracks for Friday the 13th Part 3 and Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood are not included; all of the original eight Paramount films contain at least one commentary track except for Friday the 13th Part II and Friday the 13th Part 3 which do not have one. Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter, Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives and Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan each include two commentary tracks.
  • The UltraViolet code included with the set is one code for the entire collection--you do not get a separate code for each film.
 
DVD set it is. Thanks for the info.
 
Dredd (blu-ray, not 3D).

Absolutely love this unforgiving and solid action film. They don't make them like this anymore. I'm not even a fan of the comics, as I said in some other thread. It's a damn shame that this little gem didn't perform well in theaters. Definitely a huge surprise for me.
