I will join the chorus of those demanding Paramount give us BLU-RAY releases for 4-8!!!! Why only release 1, 2 & 3?

The last part of the Part VIII gag reel is worth the 15 bucks alone.

only 2 or 3 new death scenes on part 8…damnit!! i was hoping to have another field day reinserting deaths like with part 4. but i guess it’s not that surprising…i didn’t expect this film to have anything as great as the rumors all over the internet. they said literally everything left over from this film had been preserved.

in the part 7 pictures above, how are the colours improved on the 2009 release? the new one looks too dark and therefore quite a bit of detail is lost.

I wish they would put out the best product in the first place. Not release an inferior product and a year or two later improve it and release it again. Like I want to buy 2 or 3 copies of the same movie.

jedijunkie,
Which movie are you referring to as there are two movies mentioned in this blog. If you are going to say a movie is crap, at least be specific to which one you speak of and an explanation of why would help too.

wouldn’t mind seeing the new commentaries on the dvd’s. Scott Reeves and Jensen Dagget for part 8 and Lar Park Lincoln for part 7. I think it would be cool just to hear their perspectives of the movies and what was going on when they were made!

I really enjoyed Part 7 and think it is a very underated Friday film. I also think I enjoy it so much because it was the first Friday movie that I saw. Some of the extras are good, but others are awful and I wondered why they were even added into the movie. The picture is a lot better and it is nice to watch the films in HD. I was not a big fan of Part 8, but like many fans I bought it because I have to have them all. The longers kills are pretty good and with both films I like to watch the making of them to see what the film makers wanted to do differently and what was cut and what was added are cool parts. They talk about Part 7 and how they would like to do a Part 7 number 2 to make the film that they wanted to make back then.

Ever since the first three films were re-released on DVD, Paramount has let only a few days slip before they announce the release dates for the next few installments in the series. Now that Part 7 and 8 are finally out, I think it will be only a matter of time before Paramount announces a new box just in time for the holidays. If I were you, I would just wait a little longer and go for the new box set instead of purchasing these things individually. Plus, there is always the possibility of a bonus DVD when a studio releases a box set.

I am trying to decide if I want to go and buy some of these new re-releases of Friday the 13th. I have the 2004 releases… Any thoughts? My wife will probably think I am nuts, but then again, I think she already believes that. lol
