It’s a great time to be a Friday the 13th fan. The slasher classics are slowly making their way to Blu-ray while the Deluxe Editions of Parts IV-VI are equipped with better extra features than I ever thought possible. And hot on the heels of these awesome releases, Paramount has announced the specs for the last two Crystal Lake killing sprees, The New Blood and Jason Takes Manhattan.
DVD Times reports that the final two Deluxe Editions will be available to own on the 15th of September, and you can pre-order them both below.
The New Blood specs:
2.0 Surround, Mono, 5.1 Surround
English, French, and Spanish audio/subtitle options
Portuguese subtitles

Jason's Destroyer: The Making of Friday the 13th Part VII

Jason Takes Manhattan specs:

Slashed Scenes
Gag Reel
Not a bad collection of extras to cap off the Paramount years, although these appear to be missing the theatrical trailers. Hopefully that’s just an oversight with the press release. No word on whether or not Parts IV-VI will bow on Blu-ray at the same time, but we’ll keep you posted.
Halloween 2: What the Hell Is It? What on God’s earth is going on in Halloween 2? There’s no doubt in my mind that when the film opens on August 28 we’re going to see something interesting, be it a spectacular failure or an insane work of brilliance. Either way, with pictures like the one released today, I know it’s going to be a must see.
NO NEWS YET ON SEASON 3 OF THE TV SERIES IT SHOULD BE COMING IN SEPT ALSO

I want a Blu-Ray box set. Buying them individually kind of sucks but I have to have them all.

Considering he's only in the New York region for ten minutes, I'd say that cover art for Manhattan is fantastic. The New Blood cover is excellent too.

Just to be clear ... I want parts 4-6 on Blu-ray, Paramount!
