    Blu-ray Review Friday the 13th: The Complete Collection Blu-ray Review

    A handful of people succeeded in spite of being in a F13 movie. :) I deliberately listed unknown actors earlier but if you're looking for notable names, I'd say that Kevin Bacon (Friday The 13th), Corey Feldman, Crispin Glover & Bruce Mahler (Friday The 13th: The Final Chapter), Tony Goldwyn...

    Blu-ray Review Friday the 13th: The Complete Collection Blu-ray Review

    Silence Of The Lambs is a legitimate classic movie on multiple levels so that's a pretty tough comparison for a series of low budget slasher movies. Silence Of The Lambs is a far more graphically violent movie than any of the 1980's F13s. Personally, I also find SOTL to be more scary and...

    Blu-ray Review Friday the 13th: The Complete Collection Blu-ray Review

    Yeah, I have no problem with someone else not enjoying these movies but I still find them to be entertaining. Virtually all of that enjoyment is based on the nostalgia of having watched them growing up and I can bet that if I hadn't gotten into the slasher formula as a kid, I wouldn't like them...

    Blu-ray Review Friday the 13th: The Complete Collection Blu-ray Review

    Fair enough but I meant more that Scream popularized the idea. Whenever it came about, it's giving way too much credit to movies that had no other agenda than to show killing and boobs. :D

    Blu-ray Review Friday the 13th: The Complete Collection Blu-ray Review

    ANY time that I see someone say that, I know they've never actually watched these movies (I'm not taking a shot at you, you acknowledge that you haven't seen them). There's nothing further from the truth than saying that these movies are some kind of conservative lesson to or punishment for...

    Blu-ray Review Friday the 13th: The Complete Collection Blu-ray Review

    No because Paramount destroyed the footage so the closest we'll ever get is the VHS dupe of the work print. Either on the featurette on this set or in the Crystal Lake Memories documentary (I've seen so much about F13 over the past couple of weeks, it's blurring together) they show the Paramount...

    Blu-ray Review Friday the 13th: The Complete Collection Blu-ray Review

    You would have honestly spent $90 to more or less get one movie? I've seen a number of people say the same thing so I'm not trying to single you out and while I have no doubt that some people would spend that much to get one disc, I think the vast majority of people who I've seen say that would...

    Blu-ray Review Friday the 13th: The Complete Collection Blu-ray Review

    2.5?! These are high points in cinematic history and immortal classics. :) The dark scene in the basement in The Final Chapter has always been very dark so I think that might be a mistake on the part of the film makers rather than the transfer. Great review! With the sheer number of discs...
