Paramount’s ‘Friday the 13th’ 40th Anniversary Steelbook Blu-ray Moves from May to June Release

Horror

Paramount is celebrating the 40th anniversary of Friday the 13th this year with a re-release in the form of a Limited Edition Steelbook Blu-ray + Digital, which had originally been set for release on May 5th, 2020. But we’ve learned this week via Fridaythe13thfranchise.com that the release has just been bumped over a month to June 16th, 2020.

Housed inside of the Steelbook packaging, which features Friday the 13th‘s classic poster art on front, will be the previously released Blu-ray disc of the Uncut version.

“Plus, plunge deeper into the film with previously released bonus content including commentary, interviews with cast and crew, and behind-the-scenes featurettes.”

Bonus Features include:

  • Commentary by director Sean Cunningham with cast & crew
  • Friday the 13th: Reunion
  • Fresh Cuts: New Tales from Friday the 13th
  • The Man Behind the Legacy: Sean Cunningham
  • Lost Tales from Camp Blood – Part I
  • The Friday the 13th Chronicles
  • Secrets Galore Behind the Gore

“With the addition of unrated footage, and insightful special features, plunge deeper into the film that spawned eleven sequels and the genre’s unstoppable bad guy, Jason Voorhees. A new owner and several young counselors gather to reopen Camp Crystal Lake, where a young boy drowned and several vicious murders occurred years earlier. They’ve ignored locals’ warnings that the place has a death curse… and one by one they find out how unlucky Friday the 13th can be as they are stalked by a violent killer.”

We hear a new complete collection Blu-ray set is also on the way…
