i think part 4 was the only one worth buying again. but, the cut footage should’ve been put back into the movie. part 2 should’ve been uncut too.

For the most part, I love the Deluxe Edition ocvers for the new releases. Very snazzy. The Roy Burns Mask for Imposter Jason from Part 5 is one of my all-time favorite hockey masks. I love it so much I plan to buy one from one of the high-end jason mask makers online. It will be the centerpiece to my Jason Voorhees/Friday the 13th shrine for all to behold.
I never went to see the Friday the 13th remake in the theaters so I was excited to buy the Killer Cut version on DVD. I’ve seen it 3 times now and must say I believe it to be a worthy addition to the series. Jason was brutal in a human way and somehow that made him even scarier. I have this feeling though that the sequel will be a new supernatural version since he was pretty much dead at the end. Can you imagine how whacked an undead version of this Jason Voorhees will be? Ki, ki, ki, ki, ki…..

oh by the way ratta tatta touille, in case you didn’t see my link on the other blog, here are my cuts of the pt 4 kills -

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiOWadeCZZc

they kind of squished them to 4:3, and I couldn’t find a way to fix that. the file i used is in 16:9.

but there is an HD button that allows you to watch them in DVD quality, which is nice.

pete, that part 5 alternate cut sucks. it’s mostly dialogue to replace swear words for the tv cut. there is a close up impact shot of the knife to the neck at the beginning, but just a couple frames and nothing to rave about…no blood. and when that dude is trying to get out of the porta-potty there is an additional angle of the chick lying there with her throat slit. it’s not the greatest quality and there is something like “Version 2″ in the bottom corner the entire movie. i bought a copy for like $20 and considered it a complete waste of money.

the pt 6 one is shit too. they took a crappy quality alternate shot of the back breaking kill and added it to the regular version of the movie. i think it was actually the shot they use in the tv cut. worthless.

I like the extras but it’s just still disappointing how they try to tell stories about the original Friday Series but can never use footage from the movies because they can never work out the licensing ! Between Paramount and New Lines it would just be nice if some sort of compromise could be reached so when they make special editions and extra’s like this they could use footage from all the Jason movies … “almost” like what they tried to accomplish with the His Name Was Jason dvd cause that was done pretty well.

They should re-release the Killer Cut in theaters, later in October. I\’ve always thought it was cool when movies would return to theatres. This was the version that should have been introduced to the public. I couldn\’t resist picking up the Jason Slasher Collection, btw…

i hope there’s some way you can share your redits of F13tFC. when i first saw the slashed scenes I was pretty viscerally horrified. It’s amazing what a little blood can do. Crispin Glover’s performance was great, but barely witnessed in the final cut. It would be great to see ‘what could have been’

i just gotta get on here to kiss ass another time.

f13th killer cut fucking rocks!! i bitched and bitched after both viewings at the theaters and now suddenly i love this movie!! they actually addressed many of the things i was on here bitching about with the killer cut–maybe they read these blogs. i’ve already watched it 3 times since i got it last tuesday… i do feel it is true to the franchise, and jason is totally kick ass. the characters are funny, there’s lots of pot, and some great tits…and the stupendous ones, believe it or not, are REAL!!! I LOVE IT!!!

the special features are all i needed. anything more would have been overkill.

as for the part 4 special edition, i am absolutely loving all the raw gore footage to work with. i’m working on an uncut version in windows movie maker and having a blast doing it. i wish i could color correct the stuff a little better but it’ll do…i think it will turn out somewhat comparable to the my bloody valentine (81) director’s cut they recently released.

KUDOS!!! i’m finally feeling like i’m getting what i want!!!

This may or may not have been said already. But to those who own a Play Station 3 (PS3), and have it hooked up to an Internet connection, can go and download not only the Killer Cut movie, but 2 featurettes as well!
I think both featurettes are available on the bluray version, while the DVD only had one (at least my copy did).
You can download “The Evolution of Jason” and “The Thrill of the Kill” for FREE!!! at the PlayStationStore.
Just thought I’d let you know in case anyone was interested.

I remember going to this bootleg site and seeing some interesting F13th dvds. They have pt.4 extended cut, which I think is just all the extra tv footage (now we have it w/ this new pt.4 release). Pt.6: Composite workprint, full sherif kill, regular footage (now we obviously have that as well) & workprint footage. Last but not least (and the one I’m most curious about), pt.5: a slightly alternate cut with different dialog & alternate scenes. Did they include that in the new pt.5 release too? I haven’t watched mine yet as you can tell so I just wanted to see if anyone here knows the deal w/ this version of pt.5 I found.

Call me crazy but i found it a little bit freakish as the camp counselor beheads Mrs. Voorhees in the opening sequence the name Daniel Pearl comes across the screen as Director of Photography.

There is a lot more footage, guys. I was a non-believer for a very long time, but now that the Part 4 alternate-takes surfaced as well as an entirely different ending, I have faith that there are TONS of alternate takes from that film and they only showed the ones they thought mattered (the bloody ones). As a die-hard, I’d love to have every alternate take. Why not? If there’s a market for it, which I think Paramount is finally starting to believe, we’re in for future releases with even more.

One little thing about the killer cut I didn’t like was how at the beginning with the guy’s leg caught in the claw, when he looks up, Jason is just standing there. In the theatrical version you immediately see Jason sprinting as he charges the two to attack. You see him run a bit more.

Got the Blu-ray…ok, didn’t know that’s what plays automatically. Going to watch it now, finally have time!!!

Ric, Did you get the dvd or the blue-ray? The dvd only has one or the other. If you got the killer cut dvd then thats all you get. If you got the Blue-Ray, You have both the theatrical and Killer cut versions. the killer cut automatically starts so you have to go to the special features and click on the very first listing. It will give you the choice of watching the Theatrical version in english and whatnot.

Ok, please help me and don’t laugh…when I put the DVD in, it doesn’t give me the choice of which version I wanna see. How do I pick? I don’t see it in the menu.

While Farrands and others claim that Paramount didn’t “hold out” and that everything what is in the vaults was putted on the DVD’s and Blu-rays I find it weird that the gore-trims of Friday The 13th Part 2 aren’t included on the Blu-ray. Because I was just checking out the Blu-ray and not only do you see a box full of slides and stuff of this film, but on 00:05:27 you do see slides of some uncut kills like the impaling of the couple on the bed. How is that possible when supposedly “everything” was destroyed?

The commentary for part 5 was entertaining and funny. The director and actors who participated in it know it and they have fun talking about it. In my opinion, part five would have been way better had the MPAA not have cut so much gore out of the final release.
