Friday The 13th The Ultimate Collection

The Blu-Ray quality on this set is fantastic! I have never seen these films look better, and I have owned them on VHS and DVD. The audio is good on all 8 films, all have a lot of bonus features as well. The picture quality on each film is really pristine for their age! Part 3 is both the 3D version and the 2D version. This set does not come with 3D glasses though. I have two pair of the Friday The 13th 3D glasses that came with the DVD release a few years back, so it was fun to actually watch Part 3 in 3D again, because I haven't seen it in 3D in a longtime. The price of this set is more than reasonable, so if you're looking to upgrade your DVD's for Parts 1-8, you can't go wrong with this set!

The movies arrived on time without any loose discs or case damage. There are no scratches and all "6" discs played without complication on my Sony 4k player. The picture quality is fine considering the age of the movies. The image is clear and much improved over dvd. Not perfection but good. Being classic slasher films from my teenage years, a perfect picture is not what I want. A little grit and grain adds to the experience. Overall, a perfect upgrade to the 8 disc dvd set I have had for years. If you are a fan of the movies then this is a worthwhile investment.

So in the age of digital and streaming, is there any reason to keep buying physical media? Judging from this great box set - absolutely! Here's why: 1) The picture quality is fantastic. I've never seen these movies look so good. Even the ones that are on two to a disc (I think V and VI split a disc, and VII and VIII share a disc too) - everything looks crystal clear. 2) Tons of extras - deleted scenes, outtakes, making-ofs, trailers, retrospectives, audio commentaries - each disc has everything a Friday the 13th fan could want. Even the least respected entries in the series gets a ton of extras. 3) Part 3 comes in 3D! Sure, it's not typical 3D Blu Ray, and you'll have to procure some old-school cardboard 3D glasses from somewhere else (I think I used my pair from the DVD of Spy Kids 3D or Sharkboy and Lavagirl or something), but it's great to have that option or just switch to 2D if you want. I think this is the same disc that you get when you buy Part 3 on its own, and it costs about the same too. 4) The packaging is nice and compact and doesn't take up a huge amount of room - it's just a little bit thicker than a typical case. All in all, this is a must-buy if you even think you'll like these movies. Highly recommended!

Having the dvds of the whole series was glad to finally get a blu ray set as the first two are really lackluster, 2 channel audio, grainy picture etc. the blu ray remaster is great. Getting a copy of 3 in both formats, 3D and 2D was great. It’s been years since I saw it in3D and while it sank to one of the worst on rewatches (due to the 3D effects being obvious and cheesy) back in 3D they actually look great and it’s a strong entry again. You’ll need 3D glasses as none come with the set, you can find legit Friday the 13th part 3 glasses here on amazon or get a more substantial plastic pair as the original glasses are cardboard. Nice to include in your set but I’d rather watch using a plastic pair that feel like sunglasses. Each disk is loaded with extras, watching them all in each disk usually took longer than watching the movie they came with. As already stated, it’s only parts 1-8, with new line holding the license to 9, Jason X, Freddy vs Jason and the 2009 reboot, and finding those on blu ray is a bear, but I did a marathon of the entire series when I got this set and the dvd copies of the ones not included looked fine. The biggest gripe was they didn’t have the extras this great set had so don’t feel bad about completing the set with dvds til they wise up and release a new line box set with the missing blu rays. And it wouldn’t be a complete review without complaining about the lame box art.. they couldn’t use a screengrab? Or at least try to make an accurate pic? The mask on this cover has never been used. The chevrons on the cheeks are from part 5, where they were blue and the forehead chevron is the part 3 version plus their version just looks skinny. Small gripe, but before it’s done I’ll design my own slipcover for it...

An 8 movie collection of some of my favorite classics all for the cheap price of €34 is a steal especially since they’re all the blu ray releases. delivery was also super quick and easy.

Una colección compacta de Blu-Rays de una franquicia de películas que nunca me tomé el tiempo de explorar, cuando eran populares. Ahora me pregunto, ¿por qué eran tan populares? Muchos de ellos son promedio, en el mejor de los casos, terribles en el peor. Sin embargo, no es culpa de Amazon y del vendedor, así que cinco estrellas para el empaque, la lista interminable de extras en cada disco (realmente, algunas cosas interesantes) y un precio bajo que da mucho valor. Pero en serio ... ¡estas películas solo son entretenidas por lo malas que son! :D

Muito bom, não tem legendas em Português mas tem pelo menos em espanhol, gostei.

日本ではDVDしか発売されないので、こちらを購入しました。 今まで見てきたこのシリーズの中で一番画質が良いです。音声も素晴らしい。 1〜8までがこのクオリティで見られるなんて夢のようです。特典も充実しています。 残念なのは、ディスク面が極めてシンプルなことと３に3D版が入っていないこと。 廉価版なので仕方がないですが、VHDの3D版を所有している私としてはHD画質で3Dが見たかった。 ちなみに日本語字幕はついていません。

Wer hier die deutsche Tonspur erwartet, wird enttäuscht. Die Produktbeschreibung ist falsch. Das tut den Filmen keinen Abbruch (die sind, wie sie sind), aber hier sollte dringend eine Korrektur seitens Amazon bzw. des Anbieters vorgenommen werden.
