Jason Voorhees in the rain in 'Friday the 13th' (2009)
The Big Picture 2009's Friday the 13th remake, Platinum Dunes' attempt to haul Jason Voorhees up from the depths of Crystal Lake, is coming to 4K Blu-ray. Arrow Video is releasing the film in a two-disc set loaded with special features. The set will be released not on Friday the 13th, but on Tuesday the 17th of September.
The set will feature an all-new Crystal-Lake-clear 4K Ultra HD transfer of the film's 97-minute theatrical cut, which is accompanied by two new audio commentaries; one from director Marcus Nispel, and one from screenwriters Mark Swift and Damian Shannon. It will also include a 4K transfer of the film's "Killer Cut", which adds nine extra minutes of sex and violence; that cut will have its own audio commentary by film critics Alexandra Heller-Nicholas and Josh Nelson.
What Is 2009's 'Friday the 13th' About? Close The film is a reimagined compression of the first four Friday the 13th films into a single, modernized movie. It opens with a 1980 massacre at Camp Crystal Lake perpetrated by Pamela Voorhees ; a surviving counselor decapitates her, which is witnessed by her young son Jason.
Produced by Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes, which remade a number of classic horror films around this time, including The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and A Nightmare on Elm Street, the film was a success at the box office, grossing $92 million USD on a $19 million budget. To this day, however, it remains the last entry in the storied horror franchise.
Arrow Video's 4K Blu-ray set of Friday the 13th will be released on September 17, 2024. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.
