On September 13th, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment will provide plenty of blood-curdling thrills when Friday The 13th: The Complete Collection debuts on Blu-ray. For the first time, all twelve Friday the 13th films will be packaged together, (with seven of them making Blu-ray debuts) as a result of a strategic distribution alliance between Paramount and Warner announced last fall, granting Warner exclusive video distribution rights to over 600 Paramount titles. The set also includes a Friday The 13th Killer Extras Bonus DVD.

This intense 'slasher' series is one of the longest-running and most successful horror franchises in film history, surpassing the domestic theatrical box-office grosses of such legendary series as A Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The film that turned psycho killer Jason Voorhees and his infamous hockey mask into a pop culture icon has also bested the horror competition as the #1 home entertainment seller, with total sales of $119.7M to date.

The 10-disc collection ($129.95 SRP) includes the twelve films on nine Blu-ray discs, as well as a killer DVD bonus disc full of special features on the making of the famous franchise. The must-own set will be presented in a collectible tin case with 11 hours of previously released special features and a 40-page soft cover book. The book is excerpted from Crystal Lake Memories: The Complete History of Friday The 13th, a fan-favorite volume that's viewed as the ultimate memoir of the series, and highlights some of the 200 interviews, 600 photos, storyboards, concept art and more. Also included is a brand new, official Camp Crystal Lake embroidered Counselor Patch.

Friday The 13th: The Complete Collection also includes digital versions of all 12 films with UltraViolet, allowing viewers to download and instantly stream the films to a wide range of devices from computers and compatible tablets to smartphones, game consoles, Internet-connected TVs and Blu-ray players.


One of the most frightening franchises in film history, Friday The 13th focuses primarily on the character of Jason Voorhees, who drowned as a young child at Camp Crystal Lake due to the inattentiveness of camp counselors. Many years later, the camp becomes the scene of a number of murders - all of which are either committed or motivated by the avenging Jason, who forever lurks at Crystal Lake with his finely-honed machete.

Cool set! I'm only interested in Jason X to be honest (so bad it's good). I have the remake and can get Freddy vs. Jason cheap. The only other ones I've seen (1-3) were pretty terrible. Guess I had to have been there to see them in theaters.

Jason X might be the worst movie I've ever seen.
But I can see how someone might enjoy it for it's awefulness.

This looks like a great set, it looks like the films come in a digibook style packaging too!

Is there a buy link yet on this ?

Thanks John

 

[cooey]

No pre-order links from what I can see so far

 

[PunkNinja]

Another great franchise.

 

[Rweekes]

Must admit to only ever seeing the first one

 

[Sniffer]

I've been waiting for this set for years! Definitely a day 1 purchase. Any ideas of what the pric will be?

 

[ABjerg]

I've seen Jason Lives and Jason Takes Manhattan from the org. series, and then Jason X, F vs J and the remake.

I really have to get this series watched so I can decide if it's a series worth owning for me. I mean, I love the character so hopefully I will like the rest of the series.
I will watch the first one today.

I've been happy enough with my old dvd set for several years now, but this does look pretty dang tempting. Had largely been holding out hope on an uncut release on each film, but the extras, physical goodies and that tin case (I'm a sucker for tin cases) might be enough to open my wallet on this one, regardless.

 

[RekLess]

I don't think I've watched all of these. I usually just catch one or two of them when AMC runs them during Fearfest every October. I like everything I've seen and this looks like a cool set.

Plus, my birthday is late September so this could make a great gift.

I hope this release gets a bit around the world and not just in the US.

 

[mgoode20061]

My favorite horror series of all time! Can't wait.

Not thrilled about discs 5 though 7 though. Why not separate discs? I guess if it's bare and a dual layer disc it should be fine.

Really cool!

I ordered 1 off of amazon, and if you select the 2nd fastest shipping method amazon provide a customs charge estimate which they charge you on dispatch and if the actual customs value is more, they pay the difference, but if it is less, they refund you the difference.

I think including shipping to the UK and customs fees it was around $120 which is about £78...

Hear is a breakdown of the costs from my orders page:
