Jason is back in a new deluxe collection set of the long–running slasher series! This set by Scream Factory enshrines the most successful horror series in cinema history, across a whopping 16-disc collection.
Apart from including every single Friday the 13th movie to date (including Freddy vs. Jason), this deluxe collection also includes all of the previously released extras plus all-new bonus materials, including new audio commentaries with cast and crew.
The collection comes packed in a new custom artwork and accompanying booklet, along with 16 blu-ray discs. One thing to note though, that only the first 4 movies have new 4K scanned versions. But for roughly US$10 per film, this makes for the ultimate Jason Voorhees collectible. Now if only it included his hockey mask too…
The collection is available on Amazon now for US$129.99.
If you plan to buy it or have already bought it, do note that Scream Factory has discovered an issue with some of the discs “due to human error”, and are offering free replacements for three affected discs: Friday the 13th Part 3, Jason Goes to Hell (Uncut version) and Jason X.
Here are the issues discovered:
- PART 3 (When viewing in 3D) – First instance of 3D opening credits does not come out of the screen correctly.
- PART 9: JASON GOES TO HELL (Unrated Cut) – Missing “snapped wrist” gore in an uncut scene.
- PART 10: JASON X – Missing audio during a scene in the film in which Jason kills camp counselors in a sleeping bag.
Here are the steps to get them replaced:
If you would like to sign up to receive the three corrected discs at no cost to you, please go discshipment.com and follow the instructions on the form. Replacement disc fulfillment will be handled by a third party.
