New Friday DVD / Blu-ray Re-issue News
Paramount Home Entertainment today released the specs for the upcoming re-releases of their Friday the 13th films. What made it? What didn’t? What’s coming? Find out inside!
The heads-up went to Fangoria:

• Audio commentary by director Joseph Zito, screenwriter Barney Cohen and editor Joel Goodman
• Fan commentary by Adam Green and Joe Lynch
• Slashed scenes
• The Lost Ending

Sadly, the fan commentaries featuring myself, Ryan Rotten of STYD, and Staci Layne Wilson of Horror.com didn’t make it onto the Part V and VI DVDs. That’s a real shame, too, because we’ve been told by the parties that did hear them that they were hilarious. Maybe we just had too much of a good time for them to be comfortable releasing them.
In Blu-ray news Friday the 13th Part II will be released as-is and Friday the 13th Part III will feature some new Blu-ray only exclusives:
• Fresh Cuts: 3D Terror
• Legacy of the Mask
• Slasher Films: Going for the Jugular
• Lost Tales From Camp Blood, Part 3
Everything streets on June 16. Look for cover art soon.
