One of the most iconic horror films of all time, Friday the 13th, turns 40. To celebrate four decades of fear, Paramount Home Entertainment is releasing a 40th Anniversary Blu-ray Steelbook.
Our first trip to Camp Crystal Lake was on May 9, 1980. Friday the 13th saw a group of counselors, attempting to re-open the camp after a boy drowned. Unfortunately for them, the vengeful spirit Jason Voorhees would have none of that. As you could probably guess, there was a lot of blood shed by the hockey mask-clad killer. The original film starred Betsy Palmer, Adrienne King, and Kevin Bacon.
The Friday the 13th 40th Anniversary Blu-ray Steelbook will release on May 5, 2020. This edition will feature artwork from the original poster, the uncut, unrated version of the film, a digital copy of the original movie, and several bonus features.
