Chicago – The reboot of “Friday the 13th” was another financially successful notch in the belt of Platinum Dunes, the film company behind the remakes of “Texas Chainsaw Massacre,” “The Hitcher,” and “The Amityville Horror”. Making $90 million worldwide and more domestically than any previous Jason Voorhees movie (that didn’t include Freddy Krueger), “Friday the 13th” has a following that will be ecstatic with the excellent Blu-Ray release for the slasher title.
Blu-Ray Rating: 3.5/5.0 The Blu-Ray of “Friday the 13th” delivers everything fans could ask for. Not only do they present a longer and better cut of the film in the 9-minutes-longer “Extended Cut,” but the special features enhance the “Friday the 13th” experience and the technical transfer is nearly flawless.
Friday the 13th was released on Blu-Ray on June 16th, 2009.

As for the film itself, my response to “Friday the 13th” is mixed at best. I love...

It only figures that Paramount Pictures would continue their DVD re-releases of the original Friday the 13th flicks with that 2009 remake still generating so much discussion. After all, it's not like a Hollywood studio to overlook an opportunity to make some extra money. Still, I have to give them at least a little bit of credit. A lot of care was taken in producing those Deluxe Editions of Friday the 13th, part I, II and III. The transfers were, by-and-large, excellent, the sound was a definite improvement and a lot of creativity went into compiling all the special features. If a studio is going to double-dip, for fans this is how it should be done. While none of these films are what I'd call my personal favorites, they're all such silly guilty pleasures it's hard to work up much in the way of anger towards those who might feel different.

During the finale of Friday The 13th Part III, we catch a few glimpses of Jason’s face. The bastard flashes a twisted smile not once, but twice at the woman he’s hoping to murder. In The Final Chapter (buy it on DVD here), Jason is again unmasked by the Final Girl—and she too is given a freakish grin to haunt her dreams. My question: Does this Jason always smile when he kills, or only when he’s face-to-unmasked face with his prey? Chew on that the next time you watch this ballbuster, rightfully hailed by many as the most entertaining and satisfying in the Friday series.
Tom Savini returns to lay waste to his most famous creation, with tastefully restrained FX that pack enough of a wallop to warrant hoots and cheers. Jason is played by Ted White, a stunt-gent who used to double for John Wayne,...

Before sitting down to review this new Deluxe Edition of Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter (because why would any of us settle for a sucky “Special Edition?”), I considered this entry in the Friday canon my favorite along with Part VII, but I gotta tell ya, as fun as all my viewings of The New Blood have been, after watching this movie a couple more times it’s just confounded me how it hasn’t been my favorite in the series for years. I think I watched it the least over the years because of its pacing, but all-in-all it’s a powerhouse of a slasher movie. It hits almost every right note, is cut brilliantly and makes its characters its focus. Its climax elicits a great response time and time again, and for such a sad ending as the death of Jason “Awesome” Voorhees, that’s a real,...
