Amazon is offering a 34 percent discount on the Friday the 13th Collection Deluxe Edition, dropping the price to $106 from $160. Released in 2020 to strong fan and critical response, this 16-disc Blu-ray box set is the only collection that includes all 12 Friday the 13th films.
Shout Factory discontinued the set during the holidays, and it has been sold out at multiple retailers for months. Amazon has restocked it a few times, but price and stock can fluctuate, and the deal is unlikely to last long. The package compiles every film from the 1980 original through 1989's Jason Takes Manhattan, plus Jason Goes to Hell, Jason X, Freddy vs. Jason, and the 2009 reboot. Each movie has its own Blu-ray case; there are 13 cases total since two bonus discs have their own case. The set includes a 40-page booklet with essays and production photography, and the durable slipcase features exclusive Devon Whitehead artwork.
Inside, the disc restorations and audio align with Shout Factory's archival approach. The first four films in the collection are based on the distributor's new (at the time) 4K restorations, while mono and stereo audio tracks were restored for the first seven films. The original 1980 film is spread across two discs, one with the restored audio and another with the original sound. Jason Goes to Hell and Jason X received new 2K scans based on the interpositives. The box also hosts a treasure trove of special features: archival content from earlier releases, plus new audio commentaries featuring the cast and crew, and additional commentaries led by filmmakers who were influenced by the franchise. Behind-the-scenes featurettes, making-of documentaries, and interviews fill out the extras, with the final two discs delivering a hefty load of bonus material.
The Deluxe Edition is anchored by its premium packaging: the slipcase carries exclusive artwork by Devon Whitehead on all sides, and the set includes a six- or more-disc layout that keeps the films in their own cases. For fans who want the most complete experience, the combination of restored visuals, extensive commentaries, and a curated booklet makes the $106 price point particularly compelling in today’s marketplace.
The 12-film collection doesn’t stand alone in Amazon’s Friday the 13th catalog. Amazon is also discounting a slate of 4K Blu-ray editions tied to the franchise’s ongoing restorations and anniversaries. Friday the 13th: Part II arrives on 4K Blu-ray for the 45th Anniversary on February 3, with a price of $27 (down from $31). The 2009 reboot reprint is listed at $37.49 (down from $50) for the same February 3 launch window. Jason Goes to Hell and Jason X both join the 4K lineup as Limited Editions at $23.59 and $22.79 respectively (each originally priced at $50). The original Friday the 13th on 4K Blu-ray is also available for $13, while the Steelbook Edition of Friday the 13th (1980) on 4K is $28. A separate listing notes Friday the 13th: The Complete Series (DVD) at $29.71.
For fans seeking a more affordable route, Paramount reprinted the Friday the 13th 8-Movie Steelbook Collection in November. It’s in stock at Amazon for $38 (was $48) and includes Friday the 13th (1980) through Part VIII: The New Blood on six Blu-ray discs. The steelbook box also comes with eight collectible art cards and a Movies Anywhere digital-voucher for the films. The reprint sold out multiple times over the holidays, and Amazon has also restocked the original 2021 edition for the same price. Activation codes for the digital editions are probably expired, but the packaging remains an attractive bargain for collectors who want the steelbook presentation.
The Steelbook Collection is cheaper than the standard edition without the collectible case and art cards. Standalone Blu-ray editions exist for some titles, while others—specifically Part V through Part X—are only available on Blu-ray within box sets. The 2009 reboot and Freddy vs. Jason also have standard Blu-ray editions as part of separate releases. For those building toward a complete collection, standalone formats can be more expensive or limited in availability. Additionally, the 17-disc DVD box set Friday the 13th: The Complete Series, which collects all 71 episodes of the TV show, is discounted to $29.71 (was $40).
Dealers and collectors should note that prices and stock can swing quickly on marketplace listings and publisher-led reprints. Amazon often lists the base $160 price when stock is low, and the current sale price of $106 represents a meaningful savings for a product that is officially out of print but intermittently restocked. For those weighing options, the Deluxe Edition clearly emphasizes maximum content and premium packaging, while the Steelbook and 4K reissues offer lower-price entry points or incremental upgrades for specific films in the franchise.
In summary, the Friday the 13th Deluxe Edition remains a high-value choice for fans who want every entry in one premium package with extensive extras and case artwork. The ongoing availability of alternate formats—especially the 8-Movie Steelbook Collection and select 4K titles—provides practical paths for newcomers and long-time collectors alike, though buyers should remain mindful of price fluctuations and potential stock limitations as the market moves through the post-holiday period.
For those evaluating purchases today, the current slate shows a strong value proposition for the Deluxe Edition at $106, with further savings available on individual 4K titles and steelbook bundles. As with any limited-run or out-of-print item, interested buyers should monitor the product page for updated pricing and availability, and act quickly if a particular version aligns with their collecting goals.
