Specs:
In the third installment of the legendary horror series, Jason dons the iconic field hockey mask for the first time. FRIDAY THE 13TH: PART 3 was previously released on Blu-ray 3D, but the film hasn’t looked this good in 3D since its theatrical release in 1982. Extensive corrections and improvements were made by Turbine to the existing 3D masters in an elaborate process. Further information on the repair process can be found below. Audio is presented in DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 & 2.0 in German and English.

Information on the 3D repair process

FRIDAY THE 13th: PART 3 from 1982 is impressive in 3D, not least because of its insane pop-out effects, in which objects appear to protrude from the screen. Previous releases of the film had to struggle with significant distortions. Such errors in the 3D presentation do not necessarily lead to a complete loss of the 3D effect, because the brain has a certain tolerance. But watching flawed 3D footage is exhausting and causes headaches in the long run.

For the Blu-ray 3D release, Turbine therefore had extensive corrections and improvements made to the existing 3D master. The image was adjusted in the parameters Horizontal Position, Vertical Position, Zoom, Rotation, Keystone X, Keystone Y and Trim. These optimizations were carried out jointly for both eyes as well as separately for the left and right, making a total of 21 parameters per image setting. The image parameters were adjusted scene by scene when the camera was static. If the camera moved through a scene, changing its angle or using the zoom, these 21 parameters had to be adjusted for each position. The parameters were first determined automatically using a 3D correction system and then manually fine-tuned.

The movie has certainly not looked better in 3D since its theatrical release in 1982.
